This dish (and all dishes cooked in a claypot) is extremely earthy, flavoursome, moist and juicy. The best part is that this dish will still be bubbling when you bring it over to the dining table to be served, thanks to the great heat retention properties of the claypot. Need to say more?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"color: #ad0922;\">TRICK OF THE TRADE<\/span><\/h1>\n<p>According to an article by NDTV on <a href=\"https:\/\/food.ndtv.com\/food-drinks\/should-you-cook-in-earthen-pots-get-back-to-the-basics-1697122\">claypot cooking<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Clay pot&#8217;s porous nature allows both <strong>moisture and heat to circulate through the food<\/strong>, which results in <strong>slow yet aromatic food.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It also retains the nutrition of the food, which is generally lost in other types of utensils. The thermal inertia in clay pots helps meats stay tender and soft as the muscle proteins denature and collagen breaks down completely.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This allows the foods to cook more slowly with very little evaporation, and it retains the nutritional value of the ingredients. No wonder this claypot tofu dish tastes so flavourful and juicy!<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13156\" src=\"http:\/\/theburningkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Claypot-Tofu-4-3.jpg\" alt=\"Claypot Tofu 4-3\" width=\"680\" height=\"907\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theburningkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Claypot-Tofu-4-3.jpg?v=1592144275 680w, https:\/\/theburningkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Claypot-Tofu-4-3-600x800.jpg?v=1592144275 600w, https:\/\/theburningkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Claypot-Tofu-4-3-225x300.jpg?v=1592144275 225w, https:\/\/theburningkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Claypot-Tofu-4-3-510x680.jpg?v=1592144275 510w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h1><span style=\"color: #ad0922;\">WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS DISH<\/span><\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The use of the claypot<\/strong> in this dish helps concentrate all the flavours of the ingredients, yet retaining the tenderness of the tofu and the other ingredients!<\/li>\n<li><strong>It&#8217;s a great one-pot dish<\/strong> to make for parties or family dinners as it&#8217;s a one pot meal for many people!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1><span style=\"color: #ad0922;\">HOW TO MAKE CLAYPOT TOFU?<\/span><\/h1>\n<p>Wash the mushrooms and soak them in hot water for 15 mins.
