Lijin Traditional Tofu Pudding Introduction
Since its establishment in 1986, Li-Jin Tofu Pudding has a history of over 20 years, evolving from a small vendor using a tricycle to having its own store. The tofu pudding is made from pure soybeans that are soaked in water for 3 to 4 hours before being ground, adhering to traditional methods, which results in a rich soybean aroma and a delicate, smooth texture. All ingredients are freshly prepared the day before, making it more fresh compared to some other shops that source their products from factories. Another unique feature of "Li-Jin Tofu Pudding" is that it is topped with a generous amount of "fluffy ice," which differs from other tofu pudding shops where the pudding is typically served with shaved ice and syrup. The rich tofu pudding paired with fluffy ice is both refreshing and thirst-quenching. The owner mentions that students love to eat ice, but it can be difficult to balance the sweetness when just using syrup, so instead, they make ice cubes from the syrup and then crush it into shaved ice. Additionally, Li-Jin's syrup is made by first caramelizing granulated sugar before adding water, which gives it a particularly fragrant flavor.
