Dear readers and friends,

What is Stinky Tofu?
According to Wikipedia.org (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stinky_tofu), the traditional method for producing stinky tofu is to prepare a brine made from fermented milk, vegetables, and meat; the brine can also include dried shrimp, amaranth greens, mustard greens, bamboo shoots, and Chinese herbs. The brine fermentation can take as long as several months. Although stinky tofu is very popular in East and Southeast Asia, not many households prepare stinky tofu brine at home due to its strong odor, especially in metro-residential areas.
Additionally, Andrew Zimmern from Bizarre Foods on Travel Channel appears to hate the stuff:
