You are most likely to find this cold dish in any proper Japanese Restaurant. Well.. nice or not is another story.
This is a surprisingly easy dish to make. It’s creamy and pungent taste from the century egg makes you keep picking up ur spoon and eat more. Top it with a generous amount of tobbiko to add crunch to this dish. Softness from the tofu, creaminess from the century egg sauce and bursting crunchiness from the tobbiko.. Do I need to say more?
Enjoy!
