Friendly Reminder:
1. Any variety of hyacinth beans can be prepared using this method. After washing and trimming the beans, they can be cut into sections or broken into pieces by hand.
2. The sauce seasoning can be mixed according to personal preference. Beijingers generally prefer using only yellow soybean paste for a rich aroma. If you like spicy food, you can add spicy sauce, etc. It is best not to use broad bean paste (doubanjiang), as it is too spicy and overpowers the characteristic rich sauce flavor. Therefore, a mild spiciness is sufficient.
3. The hyacinth beans must be thoroughly braised and cooked. The reason is that a coagulating substance and hemolytic saponin in the beans must be completely eliminated; otherwise, slight carelessness can cause food poisoning. Please remember this
