Mix sesame seeds, mandolin chili powder, bird's eye chili, cumin, half a block of fermented stinky tofu, two tablespoons of light soy sauce, and half a bowl of water. Finally, pour hot oil over the mixture and drizzle it evenly over the fried stinky tofu.

"Please use it, messenger."

Mo Xuan pinched his nose, placed the bowl of stinky tofu in front of Zhu Bajie, and fled as if escaping, afraid of getting even a trace of the smell on him.

Pigsy took a deep breath, inhaling all the overflowing aroma into his belly, before picking up his chopsticks, peeling away the bits of pickled vegetables, and putting a piece of stinky tofu in his mouth to chew.

"Click".

Stinky tofu, as a long-standing night market snack, naturally has its unique charm.

Deep-frying twice makes the stinky tofu crispy and dry on the outside, while the inside is tender and porous gray tofu. The perfect combination of chili sauce and chopped cilantro, along with some pickled vegetables to add texture, creates a satisfying experience with every chew.

The unique sauce, made with fermented bean curd, is slightly salty and pungent. The combination of various ingredients creates a completely new flavor. Take a bite of the fried stinky tofu soaked in the sauce, and the rich and multi-layered flavors explode on your tongue. The intense spiciness that spreads through your throat is simply irresistible.

"Cough cough!"

Pigsy had never encountered a flaming mandolin chili before, and he ate it so voraciously that he spat out a small fireball, which bounced twice on the ground before disappearing.

His black, beady eyes shone brightly, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. His tongue was almost numb from the spiciness, yet he still remembered to praise Xu Milu's cooking skills.

"What delicious tofu! What wonderful stinky tofu! This tastes even better than regular tofu. If it didn't have that pungent smell, it wouldn't be as good! Miss Xu, bring Old Pig another bowl!"

He seemed to remember something, and pulled a cloth bag from his wide-open monk's robe, inside which small particles were faintly glowing.

"This is scallion, which grows on Kunlun Hill. It tastes like scallion and can make you forget your worries. I wonder if I could exchange it for a few bowls of your stinky tofu?"

【Pín grass: A miraculous plant, entirely non-toxic, also known as "forget-sorrow grass," it only grows in extremely cold regions. It resembles a sunflower in shape and has a pungent taste. The Classic of Mountains and Seas records: "There is a grass called pín grass, which looks like a sunflower and tastes like scallions."】

Xu Milu tossed the bag of seeds around, already eager to taste them.

Regardless of its taste, the fact that it makes you forget your worries already surpasses many other ingredients!

"Of course, there's plenty of tofu today."

Xu Milu put away the bag of seeds, then picked up some tofu and put it into the pot. Before she had been frying for a while, she heard voices outside the shop.

Mo Xuan peeked out and looked for a while:

"How could they be people? The city gates are locked, and curfew has been imposed. How did these two find their way here?"
