Important Notes
⚠️ When pan-frying the bean curd sheets, be sure to place the folded opening facing down first; this helps the shape set and prevents the seaweed paste filling from spilling out.
💡 Coating the bean curd sheets with a thin layer of potato starch before frying makes the skin extra crispy and helps it better absorb the glaze.
⚠️ Add the lemon juice only when the sauce is almost done to avoid bitterness or astringency caused by long-term high-temperature cooking.
✨ When grating the lemon zest, be careful to only grate the green outer peel; the white pith underneath is bitter and should be avoided.
