Sichuan Preserved Egg with Tofu (Pi Dan Dou Fu / 皮蛋豆腐)
National Chinese — Cantonese and Sichuan versions most common
One of China's most beloved restaurant starters: silken tofu cubed and topped with chopped preserved (century) egg, dressed with soy sauce, sesame oil, chilli oil, and spring onion. Sometimes added: salted egg yolk, fried shallots, dried bonito flakes (Japanese influence). The contrast of silken white tofu against the dramatic dark-green/amber preserved egg is visually stunning.
