"Oil at 70% temperature is typically indicated by a calm surface with a significant amount of green smoke rising. You can also use a chopstick by inserting it into the oil. If you see bubbles quickly forming around the chopstick, it means the oil is at 70% temperature," Liao Ning explained as she fried the tofu. "If you have a kitchen thermometer at home, it will be more convenient. Once the temperature reaches 160 degrees Celsius, it corresponds to 70% of the oil temperature."
"Now, we're only at the first step. The tofu hasn't been seasoned yet, so we can enjoy the original taste of the tofu. However, you can give it a try. After frying, the original taste is quite delightful."
Liao Ning took out a bowl. "Now, let me teach you how to prepare a dipping sauce. I believe that when the tofu is paired with this sauce, it becomes incredibly delicious!"
