As a Japanese, I was surprised that Tofu is almost always treated as a meat alternative in the US, even in many Chinese restaurants. Where is Mapo-tofu :face-with-rolling-eyes:
But I would consider the tofu-as-meat-alternative "marking" a success, given the massive adoption compared to other Asian ingredients which are pushed to the small Asian corner of the grocery stores.
- solardev 3y agoDo you not have mapo tofu where you live? Out West it's in a lot of Chinese-ish restaurants, usually with meat, and usually done poorly (sadly). I wish I could find a good one... easy enough to make at home though.
