Delicious Chinese Food--Mapo Toufu

麻婆豆腐,早先叫陈麻婆豆腐,是中国最富地方风味的特色菜之一。当年,成都外北万福桥边,有一家“陈兴盛饭铺“。店主陈春富早逝,小饭店由老板娘陈大嫂经营。因为她脸上有些麻子,人送外号“陈麻婆”。她烧的豆腐又麻、又辣、又香、又嫩,独具风味,人称“麻婆豆腐”。

Mapo Toufu, which was first called Chen Mapo Toufu,is perhaps one of the most typical Chinese local dishes.Many years ago there was a small restaurant named Chen Xingshenf Eating HOuse close to the Wanfu Bridge in Chengdu.As the owner Mr.Chen FUchun died in his prime, the restaurant was run by his wife Mrs Chen who was nicknamed Chen Mapo due to her pockmarked face.In Chinese mapo means pock-marked granny. Spicy,hot,delicious and tender with a distinct flavor,the dish of toufu she cooked was called Mapo Toufu.




Mapo Toufu is a typical food of Sichuan province where people here like spicy food very much.Sichuan is a good place for touring, there are such beautiful places as Jiuzhaigou(p1),E mei mountain and so on. So, if you are intererested in spicy food, in nature beauty, come here! Sichuan, China!

Hi! I just joined the group and found it very interesting. Thanks for useful information smile.
I've been living in the US for about a year. Here Chinese food has been popular for a long time. But now this popularity became different: Americans not only go to the Chinese restaurants, but also cook Chinese products at home. The favourite thing is toufu. It is usually boiled or stir-fried with vegetables, which is considered very healthy. Also people use chili paste in their house kitchens. Different kinds of Chinese noodles also found their way to the Americans' tables. I find these changes very nice - at least some variety after "typical American" hamburgers - but, unfortunately, Chinese food here doesn't taste as great as in China.

I wish I could! But I'm still in the US. I lived in China for 5 months last year, and I'm going there for Olympics 2008. Hoping to learn more conversational Chinese before that smile
