Braised Tofu
Place a pot on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil into the pot and heat over medium heat. Wait for the oil to heat up, then add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. When the garlic turns golden, add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and gradually add the seasonings into the pot, including: 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1/2 teaspoon of vegetarian seasoning, and a little water. Stir well until the seasonings are completely dissolved.
Next, add the tofu into the pot, turn the heat to low, and gently stir to let the tofu absorb the seasoning mixture evenly. Continue braising until the liquid thickens, then add 1 teaspoon of ground pepper, mix well, adjust the seasoning to taste, and then turn off the heat.
