It's pretty traditional dish from Si Chuan, there are some couple things missing from the version I did, but the general gist is there. When I refine my cooking I may do an updated version but this will do for now!! sub my youtube channel, upload frequently. I don't make fancy stuff but solid cooking that I do every day to survive in grad school (hopefully not like a hobo cooking haha!). take it easy guys!! | ||

Hmm... are you living in Germany? That might be difficult yeah... I don't remember seeing much Chinese food when I'm in Germany. I actually made this without 花椒(sichuan pepper, for those who reads inglis), but I think it'll be reasonable to think it'll taste amazing with it. The chili oil I made is actually just pure Chili flakes w/o the sichuan pepper. You can buy pre-made 花椒油 in any Chinese grocery I believe. However for 辣椒油(red chili oil) I make my own. I'll do a tutorial soon, but essentially you just heat oil about 70% to smoking point and dump them on an already oiled chili flake mixture. All in all I think this dish would taste about twice as good with some 花椒油, and totally to be expected in this dish too, I'm sure I'd add it if I have some laying around. | ||

I get very paranoid when I go across customs because I'm afraid those drug detector dogs might mistake my spices for something more sinister ;( | ||

Looking forward to that tutorial then. I'll see if I can get any of my chinese friends to bring me some peppers this summer. | ||

Considering I'm always looking for new stuff to do I may attempt to copy your recipes all the way through your videos I think vinegar can be considered optional although it's nice to have. Just use some Italian ones as substitute, add some and taste if it's alright, stop if it's too weird. | ||

It's like asking what's a difference between a ferrari and a school bus, in some extent, there's no difference, but in others, there is a difference for those who cares. | ||
