chinese-mapo-tofu

chinese-mapo-tofu

This is the quintessential Sichuan classic that delivers a triple punch of heat, numbing spice, and savory depth in one spectacular bowl. Silky tofu cubes cradle a fiery ground pork sauce infused with fermented chili bean paste, while Sichuan peppercorns create that signature tingly, mouth-numbing sensation that defines the cuisine. It’s bold, addictive, and intensely flavorful.

Ingredients

300 grams soft or medium firm tofu
2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
