Many people fail to make their dough curly and crispy after frying if they only use wheat flour.

Brilio.net - There are many kitchen ingredients that can be transformed into delicious crispy snacks, for example tofu. Crispy tofu can not only be eaten as a snack, but also as a side dish with rice. You can make the dough from a mixture of flour and your favorite spices.

Generally, crispy tofu is mixed with wheat flour dough. However, many people still fail to make the dough curly and crispy after frying if they only use wheat flour. That's why many choose to add other types of flour such as rice flour.

However, if you don't have rice flour at home, you can try this trick from TikTok user @dapur_mamike22 at home. It turns out that instead of using rice flour, you only need two kitchen ingredients to practice this trick.

Before getting into the trick, prepare a container filled with spices such as 1 tsp of powdered broth, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 tsp of garlic powder. Dissolve all the spices with water. After that, prepare the tofu pieces and soak them in the spiced water.

TikTok account owner @dapur_mamike22 explained that tofu can be left to soak in spiced water for 30 minutes. You can also cover the container containing the soaked tofu so that the tofu stays fresh and does not oxidize easily.

While waiting for the tofu to soak, you can mix the flour mixture. Add 250 grams of medium protein flour and 1 tsp of baking powder. Yup, those are the two main ingredients to practice the tofu frying trick so that the mixture is curly and crispy.

Also add 1 tsp of chicken stock, then stir well. Set aside a little part of the flour mixture to another container to be made into a wet dough.

"Take 2 ladles, approximately 100 grams, add enough water, stir until mixed well," said the owner of the TikTok account @dapur_mamike22, quoted by BrilioFood on Wednesday (28/8).

After soaking the tofu for 30 minutes, drain it and mix it with the flour mixture. First, dip the tofu into the wet mixture, then place it into the dry mixture. Do this process twice, so that the crispy tofu can be more curly later.

If the tofu has been evenly coated with flour, then fry it in hot oil using medium heat. Wait until it turns brown, then remove and drain the tofu.
