That’s wonderful to hear! To learn more about doubanjiang and other ways to use it, have a look at my Complete Doubanjiang Guide.

I finally was able to get spicy doubanjiang and made this dish a few days ago. This sauce made all the difference. In the past when I made this dish, I had to improvise with other chinese sauces.
A question… what other dishes can i make with the doubanjiang sauce?

Yes Radek. To make this dish vegan, you can replace pork with Shiitake mushrooms. Dried ones are preferable to fresh ones as they have a more complex flavour. Rehydrate then chop them into small pieces.

thank you
