you're using firm tofu, you don't need to the the salted water step. You only do that if you use silken or soft tofu.

Zasshu!

Rejoice shirou....
I thought it would take a lucrative amount of ingredients to make. Good looking food and probably tasty too
The spicy bean paste and Sichuan peppercorns are a bit speciality and may need tracking down, but the rest of the ingredients should be readily available and fairly cheap. Hope it comes out well for you! 👨🍳
what brand did you use for the spicy bean paste?

Making this for dinner now, thanks for the step-by-step
Hope it comes out well for you!
@@HomeCookedAbroad it was delicious, didn't have all the ingredients therefore had to substitute and your step-by step really helped
Awesome vid
Not a little but a big bowl of rice. Nom nom

"Mapo tofu" Every fate fans while watching this be like: YOEOKOBE SHOUNEN

Yummy ❤❤❤
Yum❤
First time that I see tofu and meat in the same dish
Why sake and not xiaoxing wine? I know it doesn't matter but just curious on the profile change it has
Its bc this is a japanese style
Also you mispronouced shaoxing wine, but most bottles of shaoxing wine say shaohsing wine or hsiaoshing wine.
@@georgewash300I misspelled it and didn't care to change it. Mispronounciation would be in the form of using the wrong word in the wrong context. Thanks for your grammarly advice.
I dont think I've ever seen a psychopath add WHOLE sichuan peppercorns before today haha
Well, thank you. 😆
I just rewatch my teenhood anime: angel beats, now I am here in hopes to taste Kanade's favorite dish that I haven't taste
Looks amazing i wanna eat it 😫
But isnt it normally made with silken tofu?
Usually silken or soft tofu yes. I use firm myself when I make mapo..I like more texture over smooth and fall apart.
I came from my guy kirei kotomine of fate
What does the blanching do?
Blanche the tofu is supposed increase firmness. But since he is starting with firm tofu he doesn't need to blanch it. You only really need to blanch silken and soft tofu when using in mapo dish.
miffy bowl :D
Suggestion here: don't just drop whole sichuan peppercorns in there, someone's gonna have aREAL nasty bite. XD Instead, toast some, then pop into a spice grinder for powder, AND prepare spme sochuan peppercorn oil by lit. just frying some whole sicuan peppercorns in canola/veg oil. Also, bruh, don't use sake, wtf, use a chinese rice wine or even better, use shaoxing and sub some simple chicken stock or broth instead of a Korean soup, I agree there are interesting similarities between east Asian cooking schools, but at a certain point it feels like an 'eh, w/e, Chinese/Korean/Japanese same thing' approach xD
OH, another fun way to do mapo tofu woth somethingother than white rice is stir fried ramen. Just boil some ramen in salted water, drain, pour cold water over to stop cooking, drop in a towel and spin that suckah around to remove ALL water. Next, toss the noods into the sauce, and serve that way. One might say "but wouldn't that scramble the tofu?' YEP. so instead, after blanching, just fry it in a seperate pan IN hot chili oil until the outside slightly crisps up! Problem deliciously solved.
While I was blanching the tofu for a minute or two I hit the 50 second mark and stopped, idk how you do it, truly unreal.
Firm tofu doesn't require the blanching step
What could be the substitute for sake??
It's a Chinese dish from Sichuan, so there's no sake in the original anyways
You should also open up your dried chilies and Sichuan peppercorns in oil first, then remove and dice before reading
how spicy? nice vid
what if I can't find chili and bean paste? Is there any other alternative?
The black bean paste can be omitted. The red chili paste (doubanjian) is really essential to the mapo flavor. I would try to seek it out at your local Asian market if you can. I have other recipes (in a playlist) on my channel that use it as well, if you do find a jar of it and are looking for other things to make with it. Good luck! 🙂
@@HomeCookedAbroad Glad to hear that! Thank you🤗
@@gwendoline.r4792 Instead of buying all that stuff you could just buy mapo tofu sauce packets at Asian markets and not pay so much for all these different things
you can make korean style mapo tofu! i think that one doesn’t need doubanjiang and instead uses gochujang and gochugaru iirc
No Tofu. More green onion. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Whos here after watching shokugeki no souma👆

Ohhh ur supposed to cook it lol I tried it and did not like it I throw it straight away such a waist man but ill buys another one and try it out
The tofu? Yes, parboiling it first helps keep the texture when added back into the sauce later! Hope it works out better for you next!! 😊
You can eat it "raw" but it's basically an ingredient on itself and it's always best to include it on larger preparations, most often (but not always) cooked

To make it cruelty-free, you can use Impossible Burger, Beyond Meat or other plant-based burger instead of innocent cows' flesh. ♥️🐄

@@el-topo Hadn't heard of Omni--thanks for the tip! There are so many new plant-based options out there I can't keep up. 😋
