We sell doubanjiang by the tablespoon.
The fiery soul of Sichuan cooking. Doubanjiang—fermented chili bean paste—delivers deep, savoury heat with complex umami depth that defines authentic Chinese cuisine. Broad beans and chilies aged together create rich, earthy intensity nothing else can replicate. Essential for mapo tofu, twice-cooked pork, and dan dan noodles. Stir-fry briefly in oil to release its gorgeous red colour and fragrant heat. More complex than simple chili paste, profoundly savoury. That deeply satisfying, layered spiciness in your favourite Sichuan dishes? It's doubanjiang working its fermented magic. Once you cook with this transformative paste, your Chinese cooking reaches new depths.
