Fermented bean curd is an Asian condiment that’s popular in China. The curd, or tofu, is cut into rough cubes and fermented. The fermentation technique, based on old rural methods, involves aging the bean curd in dry rice straw for a few weeks. Once the bean curd develops a stronger flavour and aroma, it is bottled in strong alcohol with spices.
