Mapo tofu (spicy tofu in hot and spicy sauce) is one of the traditional famous dishes of Sichuan cuisine. The hemp comes from Chinese prickly ash, and the spicy comes from chili noodles. This dish has become a dish of hemp, spicy, fresh, fragrant, hot, green, tender, and crisp, which fully demonstrates the characteristics of Sichuan cuisine's spicy flavor. Today, Mapo tofu has traveled across the oceans and settled down in the United States, Canada, Britain, France, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Australia, and other countries. It has leapt from a homely dish to an international famous dish.
