Tahu Gejrot

Tahu is Tofu, and Gejrot itself comes from the Sundanese language when garlic and shallots are crushed with cayenne pepper mixed with vinegar. So what is Tahu Gejrot, the explanation is on bellow this discussion.

Coincidentally because my elder sister ordered this food online yesterday and used the address here and arrived around 2pm.

She never told us to send food here it was because she actually planned to stay here but didn't because her childrens wanted to take care of their pets.

So have you ever tried this food? Strangely I never get bored.

No, I have never tried, but I do not like the taste of Tofu, so I believe I would not like it.

My mother also had problems with her stomach so that her stomach would feel bloated when she ate the vinegar. She doesn't really like this food either, but me and the others really like it.

@LadyDuck We have many choices of food, and these foods are not suitable for those who have stomach problems.

I never try it and most likely will not. I don't like tofu. In fact the only soy product that I eat is soy sauce.

Since childhood I love to drink a bottle of soy sauce like a pacifier.

Yup, I love tofu dipped in soy with citrus and onions, Another good preparation is sauteeing with garlic, onions, chili and long green peppers and mix with mayonnaise.

@May2k8 Once you've tasted it, you'll crave for more. It's healthy and satisfying.

@cherigucchi It's not as good as you think, because I hate the smell of fish the most.

We call tofu as tokwa. We have a taho here made from soya or silken tofu. Taho is a favorite morning snack/food.

We also have two types of tofu, but the average used is made from soybeans.

We call them tauhu. Reminds me of a popular breakfast/tea time menu here called tauhu sumbat, it's basically fried tofu stuffed with cucumber and bean sprouts, and we dip it in chilli sauce.

Indonesian culture with Malaysia is similar, so it's no wonder why this is also popular there @cahaya1983

@May2k8 I have before. Not with the tofu.

But that was in front of family.

Tofu contains acid, so many don't want it.
