It's very different in taste and savory from the casual dining dishes that I usually enjoy. This dish has characteristics that are much different from usual. When I lived with my close friend, I often made this dish, he said this was a typical Rembang tofu pickle which is a traditional pickle from one of the cities where my friend used to study. He said this pickle is different from other coconut milk sauces so it would be very delicious if enjoyed straight or even added to anything else.

Pickled Tofu is ready to be enjoyed, serve in a serving bowl. So for this recipe you get 2 servings of pickles of the right size. You can enjoy it with whatever you like, but this time I enjoyed it just with this pickle without adding rice or bread.

You know? This is very delicious, savory, sweet and sour and a little spicy when I bite into the cayenne pepper that was added to the pickle earlier. Ahh, this is indeed something delicious, the delicious coconut milk combined with the spices and the stir-fry make this dish very flavorful and has its own characteristics. For those of you who are confused about processing tofu, I think this pickled tofu can be your guide when cooking for your family at home.

Wow, maybe you should look for it in Asian stores, I'm sure they sell lots of them. However, pay attention to the type of tofu because some tofu is processed with non-vegan additions!
