Milk tofu is a special product of Inner Mongolia. It's a common milk food. It's made of milk, goat milk or horse milk by coagulation and fermentation.

The difference between tofu and cheese
The taste of milk bean curd is relatively simple, the original milk bean curd is sour, and sugar is added to make it into sweet milk bean curd. Pure hand-made cheese will put salt in the processing, which plays a role in sterilization, and cheese will become salty. Cheese production is more complex. Some cheese will be put on for several years or some fungi will be added to make cheese taste diversified. For example, cream cheese and cheese in tiramisu are very sweet and soft. Because of the complexity of cheese making, the cheese is milky white, bright yellow or mildewed on the surface.
The taste of cheese is also special. The aged cheese has a light fruit fragrance. French cheese is produced in different ways in different regions with different tastes and appearances. The production of milk tofu is simpler than that of cheese, and the production of cheese is more complex, which also causes the difference between cheese and milk tofu.
