How To Make Mapo Tofu - Marion's Kitchen

[@eugene3801]

No Music... Just a beautiful peaceful YOU. Love it thank you.

[@JessieWings1221]

I just made this and wow. The flavor is incredible and the spice is amazing! I paired mine with a bowl of noodles and my lips are still tingling. Thank you Marion!

[@rukisan159]

I've been learning a lot from channel about cooking and now my hobby is cooking because of you. Thank you!

[@samhitharaj9247]

This is truly the best! I'm vegetarian so I replace pork with mini portabella mushrooms and chicken stock with vegetable stock. Fool proof. I must have made this about 8 times now and it comes out good every single time!

[@SabertoothSB]

Really funny story. Every time I start getting annoyed with other cooking videos. I think, I wonder if Marion has got a recipe and end up here. Thanks Hun!!!!

[@kaitlynb5467]

No this is literally what just happened to me and got me here

[@merceyvang]

I agree!

[@susanatangpos5959]

Same here😂

[@epeet18]

LOL this is exactlyyyy how I got here

[@mrnotificationbell]

Kirei Kotomine would love this dish

[@ireneflamel9899]

First thought: Yorokobe shounen! I'm a fan of yours!!

[@gp2779]

Kirei Kotomine approves! Same same, I’m a fan of Marion as well as the Fate/ series too!

[@christinatolar4155]

I have never had Mapo Tofu as delicious as this recipe. Highly recommend.

[@kathylee8495]

I just made this and IT WAS HEAVENN. I have been craving this forever and this just made me so happy!! Thank you! ❤

[@LastRODbender]

I make this dish quite often (my wife’s favorite). This version was awesome. The best. Thx!

[@maishamaliha2275]

Would love to see more recipes with tofu. Especially hard/extra firm tofu! I love the texture of those but still looking to find the perfect recipe for them.

[@Rhall7191]

You make this dish look absolutely incredible! I am adding this to my cook soon list of recipes!

[@blotchilim1980]

Wanted to eat mapo tofu, so i turn to your channel for step by step how to cook. Bcos you always keep it simple yet manageable! Thx marion

[@ingridferg9779]

I just made this. Awesome. A delux version with shiritake mushrooms, pork and beef mince

[@beulafrancis3659]

I never thought I would ever make tofu but here I am saying vow !Done to perfection restaurant style . I did reduce the spice like you said to ones own palate but superb ! Marion! Thank-you you bring out the best in me with your fabulous dishes .

[@eonoeeonoe7647]

woooh.. the smell is almost coming out of my screen. i love this. i have to make this. thank you sooo much for this recipe.

[@susankara7520]

I have been cooking tofu for ever and never heard of the water trick. It's a recipe changer for sure. I ❤ this recipe.. but all your recipes are stunners. Thank you for sharing 😉

[@beulafrancis3659]

Every time I made this dish I can’t help but say vow Marion love it . Waiting for more Chinese dishes in chicken or beef

[@az12312]

Thank you so much Marion. This is such a good dish, i made this the first time last week, my family loves it..

[@Orchidlady50]

Marion I made this recipe last night. It was absolutely amazing! I am not Asian but you kno when you have gone over to the Asian side as I had everything I needed! Lol. Thanks for the recipe!

[@SuouEtsumi]

I used Gochujiang instead of doubanjiang and it was magnificent! Would recommend, for anyone who can’t find it. Luckily I DID find sichuan pepper, which added a very unique sensation and flavour!

[@mayditan]

Thanks Marion, I love your videos and recipes. Btw, this is what I learned just now after I tried this recipe, is to REMOVE the BLACK SEEDS inside the SZECHUAN PEPPERCORNS before grinding them because they feel like gritty sand in the mouth. It was my first time using the peppercorns and I had to Google about it while eating this mapo tofu! Great recipe though!

[@laurenbray8314]

This is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. So good!!

[@ediypzy]

Just found your channel and I cannot say how THANKFUL I am for your recipes. Thanks for helping me taste home while away from home

[@akim2154]

Thank you for the recipe! I had to adjust the recipe for my kids for the spice level and cooked it without the peppercorns since we didn’t have any. I also didn’t have the light/dark soy sauce just regular, but I added some oyster sauce/hoisin sauce instead and a little bit of mirin since my kids like it a little sweet, and it was still good!! At least I had the doubanjiang. Next time I will definitely make it with the peppercorns to take it to the next level! 😊

[@Lizzab3th...]

I had this recently at a Chinese Restaurant in Berlin and it was sooooo good!!

[@susankara7520]

We love tofu and not having the szchehun pepper corns made it anyway...at least 3 times. 8 months into covid ventured to the Asian market for them... wanted to make the real thing. All the difference , a stellar dish...but then , it's a marion recipe!!!! Thank you. Hugs💕

[@soham4741]

Looking at your Tofu motivates me to workout and become a buff priest at my local church

[@dinhphoto]

Tofu is always my favorite food , however I wonder how to make it in the best to enjoy !!! Here it is !!! Your video completely convinced me 100% it must be good !!!!! Amazing !!! Thank you ,,,, !!!

[@missweetbabycakez]

hands down the BEST mapo tofu recipe!!! It's the only recipe I go to now after trying so many here on KZbin. I substitute meat with shitake mushrooms and it's OH SO delicious :P thank you for sharing this recipe!

[@gaminggc8350]

Love your professional cooking, the dish looks so authentic like it was just served from a Szechuan kitchen

[@beulafrancis3659]

Marion by far one of the best dishes . How can I make tofu to suit a vegetarian palate

[@nanimaknani]

I am planning to make this with chicken tonight for a halal version lol. Your videos always give such a serene vibe, and in detail. Thank you.

[@agent9752]

I just made this and it is delicious! Thank you for all your great recipes. Greetings from Los Angeles.

[@kimmdesignstudio5933]

I recently made your steamed fish recipe with ginger and scallions, which was divine! Keep those amazing recipes coming, it's like having a restaurant at home! :)

[@Marionskitchen]

Awesome!! Glad you liked that one! :-) Thank you!

[@ll.418]

I love it I try...so yummy.Winner the taste...

[@supergenkilife]

Excellent. I love 麻婆豆腐☆ Glad to learn a recipe I can challenge myself with at home

[@laychengpek814]

Just cooked this today! Super yummy. Thank you Marion!

[@MK-tn6pz]

Been making mapo tofu for years but I've been winging it with doubanjian. Decided to use your recipe because I follow you and just love your recipes. Thank you. Delicious as usual. :-)

[@micheho17]

Made this dish for dinner. Was absolutely delicious!!

[@lindaliu8929]

❤️❤️❤️your recipe , the way you cook , make it simple to follow, ❤️❤️❤️

[@OehlJim]

As an avowed "tofu adverse" person, I have to say Even I thought this sounded and looked "good enough to eat!" I may even try it!

[@openskies11]

This dish turned me around on tofu.

[@Moniek50]

Tofu is basically a blank canvas. You can give it any taste :)

[@mingjielin5375]

Never imagined that Chinese cooking can be so romantic and musical :)

[@jbw53191]

Best recipe ever. And my all-time favorite. Brilliant! Thank you for your work!

[@cosmothewonderdog8602]

This was perfect. I used a half pound of pork and silken tofu (which I did not soak). It all held together and was delicious! I’m going back for seconds.

[@Limerick502]

Beautiful!! Thanks for the video!!

[@MeiziVu]

Thanks so much for providing the names of the specialty items on the top right-hand corner!

[@ellatoler4046]

Can't wait to try this one! Looks fabulous.

[@marijkeschellenbach2680]

This is my most favorite Chinese dish! Chef Wang also "blanches'' the tofu.

[@susankara7520]

Oh marion!!!! Made this for dinner as my sour cream went moldy for my tofu stroganoff.. gladly to have pitched it. 😉 This dish was Amazing . I love your recipes🥰

[@miguelsantana1761]

Thank you Marion for this recipe.

[@MTMF.london]

I swear I could smell the aroma through my monitor! And I am drooling now.

[@peteryeap0205]

OMG! This is one of the best mapo tofu recipe!!!

[@minanicelestin1368]

Love from Rwanda!!! Thank you so much! You've made me expert! I'm now earning money in the kitchen with your loved dishes!

[@spicefulcooking1448]

Hello. Wow that sauce looks Soo yummy. Makes me mouthwatering.Thanks for sharing.

[@hungriemonkie5733]

Yorokobe shounen!

[@charlesjones406]

So good!!

[@melissacortez1157]

I have been cooking all different cuisines for decades but I have to admit that I have never cooked with tofu. I am finding different instructions online about pressing or soaking in salt water. I see in this recipe you chose to soak in salt water. Is this what you recommend for all soft/medium/firm or just a specific one? I appreciate your input because I think your recipes and techniques (also your personality and I love your Mom) are amazing! Also, I used your marinade and dredge from the Honey Prawn recipe and then topped the prawns with my own recipe for salt and pepper prawns. I use Sichuan peppercorns, black pepper, and sea salt, ground up, and then top with scallions and red chili flake. Super crunchy prawns loaded with flavor. Out of this world amazing! Thank you for all of your inspiration!

[@QueenOfArabianSea]

It's an irresistible dish. I hate tofu but I love this dish.

[@esthermom2956]

Thank you for awesome recipe 😄 You are the BEST!!!

[@betzaidavazquez5579]

Looks like a wonderful dish, I will try it and I can't wait ! Thanks for sharing you passion 🥰👍

[@zeehelen]

Just cooked for lunch for family & thumbs up from the kids! Very tasty!

[@alenegonebad1259]

Go for the spicy. Take it as far as you can-best advice ever.

[@sonyakim6409]

I am drooling watching this!!

[@mindynguyen9443]

Please provide the Douban jiang i spicy fermented chilli bean paste you used in the recipe. Thank you for sharing delicious recipes ☺️

[@misshunneebunnie]

Sound is slightly better in this video than the last Korean pork rib video, still picking up ambient background noises, but noticed sound turned down during tastings, which is appreciated! This tofu dish looks DIVINE! I am just imagining that chili sauce on rice or noodles after eating that heavenly tofu! Thank you for always bringing us great recipes! ❤️❤️❤️

[@yurironoue5888]

I want to go to Chengdu or any restaurant within Sìchuān province and try the most authentic recipe of Mápó Dòufu I can find. Also, Chilli Oil Wontons, Sìchuān HotPot and DànDàn Mìan! ☺

[@TuanPham-cc6eh]

Then you should watch channel the food ranger. Trevor James has made a lot of chinese food videos

[@yurironoue5888]

@@TuanPham-cc6eh Thanks for the recommendation! I'm actually subscribed to 2 channels that are focused on Chinese cooking- Chinese Cooking Demystified and Xiao Gaojie de Magic Ingredients. Pretty good channels!

[@cheekyb71]

I went to Chengdu in 2011, I was BLOWN AWAY by hot pot hahahaha! My friend and I spoke not a work of mandarin, the waitress spoke not a word of English, but we worked it out! It was so much fun - and the panda breeding facility is awesome (our reason for going hahaha)

[@sidekicks1403]

Watch out for ur ass when u eat the spicy food

[@TH-ls3yf]

U can follow Li Ziqi, she lives in Sichuan

[@kukanalina789]

I have tried it in different ways, but I am looking forward to making this!

[@nadiacastricum3292]

How ironic was out for dinner last night and had dumplings with Mapo sauce. It was Delish. Now they have the recipe to make it at home👌🏻😘

[@monicalaurad]

[@karinaperez4220]

I love your spatula! Where do you get it? 🙂

[@KeireiRyu]

I never had Mapo Tofu, no restaurant ive been to serves it. Might have to make it for myself. Looks divine.

[@TuanPham-cc6eh]

I find that put cooking wine in make tofu more firm instead of salt.

[@camcurv-a-match2769]

Alligator T thanks for the tip

[@jx9936]

Thank you so much Queen Marion for showing us this classic Chinese recipe, SO DAMN AMAZING indeed!!

[@HuVoTNL]

This is one of the best. Did not put the chili powder and use 5 colours peppercorn, no Sichuan peppercorn. It was just spicy enough for me. Added 1/2 medium onion. So tasty..

[@laurietarawa1371]

I've waited for years for this recipe.

[@dankuraitsuki2377]

i just finished cooking it, BON APPÉTIT 😋 So Good 😍🤤🤩 !!!! So Delicious ❤️❤️❤️ !!! Thank you 🙏 !!!

Are you Muslim?

[@devismommy]

My favorite Chinese dish!

[@frankdewaalirisclazing6501]

excellent recipe! very well structured tutorial. beautiful filming. most yummy. too bad the kids find it too spicy.

[@lillepink4343]

Don’t put the red chili pepper and replace the Sichuan peppercorns to black pepper and still come out good

[@johnerdmann2700]

WOW SO GOOOOOD THANKS!!!!!!!

[@mitchelllee1339]

Wow... I been eating mafu..that is next level. Thks,I am going to try that recipe..

[@BrutalOddball]

Holy crap this looks so good. Gonna make it next weekend!

[@mariannecheung9680]

Today I'm gonna try your recipe 😉

[@whiteowl0227]

How much broth should we add, doubanjiang, and additional water at the end (assuming it’s for 2-3 people)?

[@meihuang669]

非常不错的麻婆豆腐。你都能买到豆腐和花椒、豆瓣酱，这个我家乡的食物我却不能买到食材，我在国外。但我前几天做了碎肉豆腐，用牛肉碎，柠檬汁自制豆腐，paprika提红色，做出了豆腐，也很不错。

[@rahulsidshah]

Amongst my favourite dishes - finally demystified!

[@donnadodd6141]

Omg... those peppercorns bought tears to my eyes.. 😳

[@nate5520]

Either I forgot what mapo tofu taste like or I've been too spoiled trying to replicate the same dish I had in Vancouver Canada. It taste similar to other recipes I've tried but doesn't quite have what I'm looking for. The search continues...

[@treesunflower]

Any substitution ideas for pork? I have a pescatarian friend

[@山田ケント-s5r]

😀😀😀 so good

[@common9]

Tq Marion, for sharing your wonderful recipes and tutorials. I tried it, but it was a bit spicy due to the pepper. 😊

[@sohamtamakuwala8772]

I Love You so much Marion 😭😭😭

[@ailon5871659]

I come from Taiwan I’m so love you cooking

[@xyejix]
