Sichuan Mapo Tofu, plus a (hopefully educational) look at the CIA Textbook's version (麻婆豆腐)
A special two year anniversary video! We wanted to revisit Mapo Tofu, probably the most popular tofu dish on the planet. A while back we made a video on Mapo Tofu, and while we still like that recipe, we wanted to improve it to get a bit closer to Chengdu.
And just for fun, we decided to place our new recipe up against the recipe for Mapo Tofu from The Professional Chef, the textbook for the Culinary Institute of America. While one look at the thumbnail could probably tell you that there's a few problems there, we wanted to take the time to explore and show you how precisely that recipe errs. Hopefully, in the process, we can impart some guidelines... some things to avoid. After all, sometimes learning how *not* to do something can be just as - if not more - illuminating than how *to* do something.
Footage of the Mapo Tofu from Chen's in Chengdu is courtesy of the channel Itchy Feet on the Cheap. Lots of food travel videos over on their channel. You can find the full video here:
Footage of the canteen is courtesy of Youtuber “欧文老师”. It's the canteen of Zhejiang University - he seems to upload sporadically but has a few vlogs up if you'd like to check him out. In Chinese. Check out the full video here:

Vegan Sichuan Hot Pot Base Recipe| How to Make Spicy Hot Pot at Home
Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by my channel! I grew up in Sichuan Chengdu and I love sharing the recipes from my hometown because they are so amazing and I think everyone should try it! Who doesn't love hot pot? Previously I shared a traditional Sichuan Hot Pot Base using Beef Tallow and today I'm sharing the vegetarian version! By using vegetable oil you can make the hot pot base vegan. You can use peanut oil, canola oil and avocado oil.
The oil would not solidify but you can keep the base in a jar and store it in fridge.This traditional Sichuan hot pot base recipe will give you a hot, spicy and aromatic soup, absolutely essential for your hot pot party!
You can also use it for dishes such as Gan Guo (dry pot), Ma La Xiang Guo, or Ma La Tang! I hope you give it a try and tag me on social media if you recreated it!
