I always steamed sea bass after buying it before. Today, I made a tender tofu and sea bass stew that was even more flavorful and delicious than steamed. The whole family raved about how fresh, fragrant, and tender it was. This tender tofu and sea bass stew features sea bass and tofu as the main ingredients: the fish pieces are marinated in soy sauce, oyster sauce, cooking wine, pepper, scallions, and ginger until fragrant and flavorful, then simmered in a clay pot with pan-fried tofu until slightly golden brown. Onions, garlic, and Sichuan peppercorns (with a touch of spicy chili peppers) bring out a rich and savory aroma. The texture is tender and smooth, and the broth is perfect with rice—a hot and satisfying meal for the whole family.

The fragrance of lime leaves, galangal, and lemongrass envelops the overall aroma, creating an alluring tropical fragrance. The flavor is a dance of textures: crunchy, savory, and fragrant, with layers of complex flavors—sweet, savory, spicy, and fresh—perfect for accompanying warm rice or as a relaxing snack.

The tendons are soft and springy, with a uniquely chewy texture. The spicy flavor blends perfectly with the brisket's meaty aroma, making it even more fragrant the more you chew. The rich broth, mixed with rice, can fill two large bowls! Even simple white rice becomes incredibly appetizing with this dish.
