Do you love stinky tofu? Which kind do you like? I ate mostly fried ones when I was little, which is probably the reason why I enjoy steamed stinky tofu more when I grew up. This Steamed Stinky Tofu is my go-to, easiest stinky tofu recipe. It's vegan, no animal, but still delicious and "stinky" (smile).

Instructions
Soak the dried mushrooms in water for at least 15 minutes to let them puff up.
While the mushrooms are soaking, mix all seasoning ingredients together in a small bowl.
After the mushrooms puff up, squeeze out the water from the mushrooms, and slice them. Save the soaking water for later use.
Place a small pot over medium heat. Add the sesame oil to the pan. Once the pan is hot, add the minced ginger and sliced mushrooms. Stir fry for about 30 seconds.
Add the stinky tofu slices, the mixed seasoning. Cook for about 1 minute.
Transfer all into a deep dish. Spread out the tofu into a single layer if you could.
Add the edamame beans, the saved soaking water, and more water (if needed) high enough to barely cover the tofu. Steamed the tofu for about 20 minutes. Enjoy!
