I couldn't help snapping a picture of the black tau gua (bean curd) that my mom was eating with porridge for breakfast this morning. This is traditional breakfast food for Teochews especially for the poor Teochews of decades ago. It is slightly hard and usually black sauce is poured over it to give it a sweet flavour. It is difficult to find this in Singapore and we usually buy it from the wet market over at Albert Centre. I think this black tau gua will be "extinct" in maybe the next twenty years as only the older folk eat this ;-( .
