Dai style grilled tofu

Overview

I applied for a trial of the new Changdi Man32K oven on WeChat, but I didn’t expect that the application was approved. After I processed the new oven I got, I wanted to use it to bake some Dai-style tofu to satisfy my cravings. I haven’t baked tofu for a long time and I was panicking. Friends who have been to Xishuangbanna, Yunnan will definitely not forget the Dai barbecue. The Dai people's method of cooking barbecue is simple and convenient. As long as there is fire, bamboo and green leaves, they can grill all kinds of delicious food. The Dai people usually use bamboo sticks to hold the food and put it on the charcoal fire for barbecue. Nowadays, few people in the city use charcoal fire to cook. They all use induction cookers or liquefied stoves for cooking, and bamboo sticks are not readily available at all times. So today I used an oven instead of charcoal to bake the Dai-style tofu. It is healthier to bake it in the oven without oil smoke and eat it.
