Savory soy milk soup lightly curdled by vinegar and served with Chinese fried crullers (you tiao) and other savory toppings are popular breakfast food in Taiwan. Learn how to put this together in no time.
If you want to make your own soymilk, you can try this recipe. Otherwise, you can get store-bought organic unsweetened soymilk
Finely minced the pickled mustard and green onion. If the youtiao is frozen, you can re-crisp them in the oven at 350 F (180 C) for about 8-10 minutes or until heated through and crispy. Separate the youtiao pair and cut into large pieces
When all the toppings are ready to go, pour the soymilk into a saucepan and bring it to a boil and then lower the heat to let it simmer for about 1 minute. Turn off the heat
To put everything together:
Divide the soymilk into serving bowls, about 1 cup each. For EACH bowl, add 1 tsp of rice vinegar and then stir a little bit. You will see a very mild curdling going on because of the vinegar. Next add 1 tsp of soy sauce, 1 Tbsp of zha cai, a sprinkle of green onion, and serve with youtiao on the side
