- Well, the secret ingredient in my mapo tofu recipe that will give an extra “oomph” of flavour is none other than - PI XIAN DOU BAN! (bit.ly/Lazpixiandouban)
This ingredient is the backbone of Sichuan cuisine which comes from the town of Pi Xian in Sichuan and is protected by designation of origin. That means that the product needs to satisfy stringent criteria before it can be labelled Pi Xian Dou Ban.
In this video, I show you how to make my easy-to-do mapo tofu dish, with ingredients that are easily sourced from RedMart and Lazada.

Never Waste Your Calories on Yucky Food!
I'm glad to see someone recommend firmer tofu. Everyone else recommends silken tofu but I find it requires far too much effort to prevent it from disintegrating during cooking.
Yeah, i know!
Adding cubes shitake mushrooms elevate the flavours to next level! Yumm!
Thanks for your suggestion!
simple dish and yet so authentic. Enjoyed this!
Thank you so much 😊

Living in Germany, bought the mentioned "Secret"-paste months ago, because the old lady in the asia shop told me that this paste is from the sichuan region and so it's the authentic Paste. Good that you mentioned it her
So, have you tried it yet?
@@ieatishootipost yes it's really good :)
@@christiansimon1116 Excellent!
Hi! Can I know where you bought the wok you are using? I've been trying to find such wok! Appreciate your response! Thank you Doc!
Razorsharp. Just tell them you want to buy the wok that I am using.
Dr, G6PD cannot take broad beans. So what other alternatives do u suggest? Can ordinary fermented soy bean add chilli padi and Sichuan peppercorn do? Appreciate your advice. Thanks.
You can use chilli bean paste from Hong Kong or Taiwan which uses soya beans instead of broad bean
Can I please get the recipe for this? Where can I order the pasta in the jar you are showing?

💜💜💜💜👍👍👍👍👍👍
How to reduce the saltiness of the chilli bean paste? Thx
You can't. But you can reduce the amount of other salty ingredients in the dish.
Does it matter what brand of the special ingredient?
I don't have a specific brand to recommend. As long as it is Pi Xian Dou Ban, it should be fine.
Is there any halal chilli bean paste?
I am not aware of any, unfortunately.
lol secret ingredient indeed
No longer a secret!
Your written recipe is missing the corn starch slurry, water, shaoxing wine and black vinegar
Wow, thanks for pointing that out! I will need to fix it!
No pickled mustard?
That’s right, no pickled mustard
@@ieatishootipost you know what the french say: chacun son goût :)
@@northdot9 No, but I do now!
The music is sooooo annoying. I had to bail out, unfortunately, since I'd have liked to have stayed!
Thanks for your feedback. We will take special note of the music for future projects
@@ieatishootipost
I am pleasantly surprised, and appreciative! I look forward to future videos.
This video is akin to someone who's been eating Domino pizzas all his life, and then all the sudden discovered authentic Italian pizzas, and then went around blogging about how mozzarella is such a secret ingredient.
Ok.... I take it as a good thing.
Pi Xian Dou Ban Jiang is **NOT** a secret ingredient; it's the signature ingredient in the dish! That's like saying, "What's the secret thing that makes this automobile move? It's... AN ENGINE!"
Until recently, we couldn't get Pi Xian Dou Ban Jiang in Singapore and most people were using dou ban jiang from HK. Its like saying the secret to an authentic Napoletana pizza is San Marzano DOP tomatoes when we have always been using other tomatoes as they were not available. That is what I meant.
