    MY BOOK CAME TODAY, omg Wil, it’s absolutely gorgeous! I must now say, this is the best investment I’ve made in my life toward better eating and my vegan commitment. The prep chapter alone, makes your own oils and stocks, what you save at the store making these items at home will pay for the book easily, the signed copy. Get the next one to the printer good sir, I’m ready for my copy! Bravo Wil, the food is healthy art.

    Definitely gonna try this one. When I lived in China, there was a local place that could do a veggie version for me. The best thing I ate over there though (and indeed in ever in my life) was at a Buddhist temple where they made an amazing pretend roasted spiced pork out of potatoes. So delicious. Can I also request a lo bok salad recipe?

    Oh I’m so glad u are not selling on Amazon! They are so seductive to both sellers and buyers, but they control everything. We need to take back our power and support individuals and small businesses. Such integrity. 🥰

    I use vegan ground soy protein on my mapo tofu it looks just like ground beef and taste good. But now that I found your video with mushroom and chick peas instead of ground meat I'll definitely give this a try. Thanks for sharing your recipe and more power!

    I make an insanely good (and insanely spicy — has vastly more chili oil than yours 😅) Chengdu style mapo. I may have to try adding some reconstituted shiitakes to my meat when I stir fry it. Still staying vegan, you could fry a bit of chopped douchi in the early stages to add even more depth of flavor.

    I never thought of using chick peas and mushrooms as a stand-in for ground beef in this dish. Very interesting!

    And yeah, good mapo tofu is one of the greatest dishes on the planet. It's unbelievably delicious and addictive.

    I made this tonight. Not bad maybe the western in me found it a bit salty could that have been the paste I used?? The girl at the Asian store said that the label said doubanjiang paste.

    The Szechuan pepper is really strong but amazing you definitely would be missing out if you substitute.

    And agree with others that the mashed chick pea substitution for pork mince is a brilliant idea.

    Thanks again!
