I love videos like this so much. My Mum is sichuanese and watching your videos reminds me of her.
Thank you! What’s mom’s dish you like most? I love my mom’s spicy chicken 😋
Mapo Tofu is probably my favorite chinese food! I originally found your channel thanks to that video you made 11 years ago!!
Right, the re-make of Mapo tofu 😊 Thanks for sticking around!
This dish looks so delicious. Thank you for sharing the recipe, I'll try making it too. 👍
Thank you 😊
Awesome recipe! This is the first time I’ve seen Sichuan peppercorns in their powdered form, I’ve spent so much time picking out individual peppercorns so this is a welcome change😁
So flavorful 😋
Mapo Tofu is one of my favourite Chinese dishes. Thanks for the recipe.
Mine too 😋
Looks great. It’s a good substitute for meat. Perfect, i will try without meat. See you soon
Hi Ling, my husband and I love Ma Po tofu. I can’t wait to try your recipe.
Is that your husband behind the camera? I love all his reactions to your excellent easy to follow recipes. It would be nice to see him in front of the camera enjoying your food sometime. ☺️
Yes, we love Tofu too. Yes, he’s my other half 😊 Thank Hou!
Nice soft tofu🙂👍
Hey Ling. It's been a while since I made tofu. I should try it again sometime. I went through the list for my mother in law she should eat due to her health. The greens she should eat the most is broccoli and bought lots this morning so most likely, it will be a tofu broccoli dish. I may include other vegetables to give it color, like carrots. We'll see this weekend. Earlier this week, I made a chow fun. They loved it and still enjoying the leftovers. Nice that my family is enjoying home cooked meals made just like the restaurants.
Great home cooking, Andy 👍
That looks so delicious! So creamy…..I never had this before…..thanks so much.
Really? It’s worth trying, a classic Sichuan dish 😊
Thank you as always for the recipe 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you, Ronnie 😊
@@ChineseHealthyCook it's really too bad I'm not eating tofu anymore if I make it for a friend I will have to try a bite

This looks so good! Mapo tofu is delicious. I would love if you did a video on staple ingredients for Chinese cooking!
Here’s my video on Chinese cooking essentials: ruclips.net/video/DV2KIfM0_wA/видео.html
I've never had tofu, but heard its delicious and healthy. A great source of protein, especially for vegetarians.
Yes, plant based protein.
Yum 😋
Isn’t it? 😋
Thank you for another great video that again taught me something. I've made mapo tofu before but didn't think to add Sichuan pepper to it. As much as I like mapo tofu I rarely make it. My spouse likes tofu but can't handle spicy food unfortunately so I have to make it just for myself. I could leave the heat out of it but then it wouldn't be mapo tofu. Incidentally I use sweet rice flour to thicken sauces. I found that it has less of a starchy taste.
Sweet rice flour sounds good. Thanks 😊
your recipes always look great. I have tried to to repeat a couple. I wish you said more about how and when and why to add each component in which order. anyway -- thank you. well done
Thank you, Sean 😊
Blessings Mrs Ling & Mr Camera man, hope all is well. This looks delish
Hope all is well too, Arlene 🤗
@@ChineseHealthyCook thxs much
Thanks. And to think, all this time we have been just mixing tofu and pork with a mapo tofu spice packet.
Hello Ms Ling!!! Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
Thank you 😊
Love Mapo Tofu! I’m going to make it this way this weekend! Good to see you! I feel like we don’t see you as much anymore! Also, what do you put on biang biang noodles? I have some freshly made but no recipe 🤷🏻♂️
Hi Jamie! I would put hot oil for biang biang noodles 😋
What is that pan you're using? It looks gorgeous, and fascinating. I want one!

Hello Ling, love the receipe... now my questions: q.1- please explain fore or against adding bean sprouts and/or even bamboo shoots at the end of this preparation for mapo tofu, q.2- what is your standard ratio for preparing your potato starch or corn starch slurry, thanks
The authentic recipe doesn’t have other veggies, and don’t we want to highlight tofu? The slurry is about 1 tbsp starch mixed with 1/4 cup water, approximately 😊
@@ChineseHealthyCook Thanks for your response
💜👍💜👍🍲
i’m gonna use veggie stock instead and omit the ground pork!
Here’s my version without meat:

Remind me - what does boiling or blanching the tofu do? Firm it up if you’re using soft or silken tofu?
gets rid of the raw taste of the tofu
It firms up the tofu too so it won’t be falling apart.
Why do you have to blamch tofu? Is it ok to put it directly too??
You can skip it but traditionally it gets rid of the raw taste and heats up the tofu.
@@ChineseHealthyCook thank you👍🏻😀
Me and tofu do not mix to well.
