Kiss Burn and "Violent Spicy" Fish Tofu from China

Kiss Burn and Violent Spicy Fish Tofu from China

I had no idea what these were when I saw them at Scarlett, but was amused enough by the words on the package that we bought some to try. The Kiss Burn packages from Weilong turned out to be small rectangles of chewy gluten drowning in red chili oil and salt; they were basically like mala chewing gum that you could swallow after a minute or so. It tasted better than it sounded, even if the texture of the gluten took some getting used to. It was much better than that fish tofu in the center, whose "violent spicy" flavoring wasn't spicy at all. No need to get that again.
