mapo tofu traditionally has ground pork / beef. Not too much but you'd probably have still noticed it if it were there. You can make it vegetarian by using dried mushroom instead but I've never seen that offered at a restaurant.
Ohhhhh, okay - well mine was just saucy tofu. But that sauce could have been chicken broth based ... boo.
Is this the one with that crazy numbing peppercorn flavor
yeah
Nice! Did they actually make it properly spicy?
Wasn't particularly piquant, but plenty of numbing flavor
Wow! I know what I’m doing for dinner tomorrow
Mapo is one of my every week meals. Shit is great especially if you have some quality pixian doubanjiang.
