Every barbecue stand in Wuhan has grilled "ganzi," but the delicious ones require some skill. In fact, Wuhan's "ganzi" is not the brown-black tofu that people imagine, but a soft and tender tofu that is slightly wrinkled on the surface after being smoked and grilled over an open flame. Although it's called "ganzi," the ones grilled at "Qixingke BBQ" near Tiesi Hospital are tender and juicy, and are known as the "best grilled ganzi in Wuhan" by foodies. People come from all over just to taste this unforgettable flavor, waiting from day to night. Foodies believe that a good ganzi should still be slightly moving when picked up and have a "ambiguous" texture that melts in your mouth. The key to grilling such a ganzi lies in the knife cuts: one-third deep and one-third wide, without cutting through both sides.
