She likes to eat more for herself and her family, that's all. Therefore, I never talk about how authentic my cooking methods are. Most of them are home-cooked, and I even often modify some recipes to suit my own taste. After all, we serve families! Regarding tofu, there are many ways to eat it. Mapo tofu is a classic Sichuan dish. The ingredients and workmanship are very particular. I was afraid that I couldn't make the authentic taste, so I never named it with it. Hehe, I will use it today. Whether it's authentic or not, we didn't just buy it. My family said it was delicious. Hehe!
