Hello, friends especially foodies!
Today i would like to share one of our favorite takeaway snack.. Here are the clues to guess what is the snack that i mean:
- It authentically came from my country, Indonesia.
- It had savory flavour and crispy texture.
- It made from soy.
I know you already know the answer... yes it is tofu, but it won't just an ordinary tofu. Why, cause it had aci also, which made from starch and had chewy texture. How when tofu meets aci? The answer you will find through this article.
Friends, still you remember that last Thursday mom and i had a tasty dinner in a cafe? And at the same place, we found the aci tofu seller stall, on the 1st floor.
The Outlook
Here how the food stall looked like
It looked clean and neat plus the stall was like it usually, had yellow color.
The Menu
It only sold aci tofu, the different each other would be only the sauce or powder dressing they put it with.
The Dining Area
Although the dining area was not large but it was clean and neat, in rustic modern style. Great place to have snack, right? But that day we wanted to takeaway these snacks.
The Making Process
These here how the seller made it, put the aci starch with other ingredients on a side of the tofu, then fried it until it had yellow bold color..
The seller then packed them in a box, put it in the recycled bag.
Anyway the seller was kind and polite, she smiled often and mom was chatting with her. The seller came from Java, and she looked so professional in making it, she has been working there for several years.

The Taste & The Flavour
It had soft texture inside with crunchy skin. The taste was savory and so tasty. The tofu they used were fresh so it didn't have sour flavour and it was a high quality tofu. Plus the seller could fry it really well so even at home it was still tasty!
Oh yeah i almost forgot the price, it was just 20 K IDR after 5K cashback, or it was just 1.4 USD for 15 pcs pieces of aci tofu.
Come and try this aci tofu too!
