Cooking tips

  • To eliminate greasiness and boost flavor, always fry doubanjiang in oil when it’s dry—avoid using wet or moist versions.
  • The strong sourness of tomato sauce can be balanced by adding a pinch of sugar.
  • For a bolder mapo tofu flavor, add huajiao (Sichuan peppercorns) during cooking.

Recommended for

  • Those tired of everyday tomato pasta and looking for a creative twist.
  • Fans of mapo tofu who want to enjoy its spicy, savory richness through a satisfying noodle dish.
