Greetings ASEAN Hivers, this week's challenge is all about tofu temptations, so sharpen your soybeans and count your curds ready folks.
Tofu can be found throughout Southeast Asia in various forms, whether it be dessert or a savory main dish. Whether deep-fried on the street or mixed with pork in a fancy restaurant, there's nowhere you can't find tofu, and in Southeast Asia you don't have to be vegetarian to enjoy it. This week's challenge can be a recipe or not, but the main theme is tofu. You can even write tofu poetry if you feel compelled.
You don't have to dress up like a tofu block to participate in this challenge, but I won't stop you if you do. The rules are flexible, so whether you purchase your tofu in the market and want to showcase the vendor location or buy your tofu fried, hot, and from the roadside, anything involving tofu is welcome in this challenge.
This challenge's winner shared a very engaging post, and if you like Filipino snacks, or any kind of snacks, this post is for you. It was a family effort too, the winner had her husband snap the photos while out and about running some errands, so hopefully she'll share some of the rewards with him.
Since I cannot go out alone because of my health situation, I asked my husband to take some photos of a street vendors he passed by when going to the supermarket in our local area. And it was also a good timing that my husband had an appointment in Cebu City last Wednesday, so again I asked him for some photos of street vendors he's going to see. And thankfully, he was able to take some photos that I can share here for the challenge. I hope you will like it...
This challenge only had one participant, but the win was well-earned, so I happily award the 2nd and 3rd prize rewards to @arashi0416.

Hahaha, this tofu GIF just had me laughing, look at it blowing bubbles! So funny @justinparke!😂😂
What an exciting theme for this week, looking for a subject so I can join in the fun.
I've been gone for a while got caught up with work. Happy to read about the newest challenge.
I got a chuckle when I saw that GIF too. Here in mainland SE Asia I often see tofu mixed with pork in dishes. I don't see it very often in your country's cuisine though, I assume because less Chinese historical influence there.
Probably that's the reason why. My sister-in-law cooks tofu with pork very well, so delicious.
So sad, I was not able to share an entry. Hopefully on the next theme.
It is very nice theme and I am very excited to see some delicious entry. and Congratulations the winners
Thank you, tofu is an interesting ingredient that people prepare in so many different ways.
Congrats ma @arashi0416!!! Ayiiieee...
