Stinky tofu is a popular street food in Taiwan, made by fermenting tofu in a brine of vegetables, herbs, and sometimes meat or shrimp, resulting in a pungent odor reminiscent of sewage or rotting garbage. It's typically deep-fried, steamed, or grilled and served with pickled cabbage, chili sauce, or soy sauce, offering a crispy exterior and soft, flavorful interior that contrasts sharply with its smell, making it a divisive yet iconic snack found at night markets across the island.
