    I made this with a bit modification because I don't have Doubanjiang and pickled pepper. Substituted Doubanjiang with equal amount mixture of Tauco/tāuchiù/豆醬 /dòujiàng and Gochujang, omited pickled pepper (wanted to substitute it with pickled chili but ran out of that), reduced about 30% of sugar requirement.
    Everybody in my family like it, the taste was a good balance of sweet, sour, salty & spiciness.
    Thank you for the delicious recipe.

    Only change was I had some vegetable broth open so I used that instead of water, and added a small spoon of some Szechuan sauce I had in the fridge. Looking forward to trying more from your videos.

    Looks excellent! I've tasted very similar dishes in the past.
    I do have a question on the recipe process, though: what's the point of soaking the eggplant? Usually when I cook eggplants, my goal is to remove the water contained in it. Sometimes I even put salt on it first (before any cooking process), and wait 1-2 hours so that water gets out. It's a similar process for making kimchi, actually. But in the case of these Yu Xiang Eggplants, it's different. Do you soak them so that the starch holds up better on it (but then 10 min soaking wouldn't be necessary I guess...), or is there another reason?
    Thanks!

    This looks great. I wondered is the sugar a traditional ingredient? I didn’t know if that was added for western tastes. Most of the recipes I have seen in China don’t use sugar the way they do in America.

    • @suublib
      @suublib 3 роки тому +2

      They commonly use in Asian cuisine to counter acidity, heat etc. It depends on the dish I guess. For instance sugar is not used in Mapo, in the traditional recipe, but I saw many Sichuanese home cooks using sugar and it tastes great that way.

    How do you prevent that much starch from sticking to your wok and clumping up? I did this nearly the same way, I put starch on the wet eggplant, then eggplants into wok with lots of oil. The starch instantly began crumbling up, sticking to the wok

    Recipe looking delicious my question is why soak with salt water. I cook with eggplant and when I want to pull the water out I use salt and spread the eggplant pieces out onto paper towels to absorb the water. Just curious

    • @hmoobsanger8109
