Resembling bamboo shoots, fu zhu is a must-have ingredient in Mala Tang.

 

Just as tofu is essential in Korean soybean paste and kimchi stews, fu zhu is indispensable in Mala Tang.

 

Its crunchy yet soft texture, combined with the mala juices that burst in your mouth when you bite into it, creates a heavenly experience.

If you love vegetables, add plenty of bok choy and napa cabbage to your Mala Tang.

 

In fact, adding more vegetables than meat makes the broth fresher and deeper in flavor.

 

Bok choy and napa cabbage also help reduce the sodium content, making your Mala Tang healthier. Adding mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts makes it even better.

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Wood Ear Mushrooms

Resembling seaweed, wood ear mushrooms are often used in various Chinese dishes like sweet and sour pork and jjamppong (spicy seafood noodle soup).

 

While they don't have a particularly strong flavor, their chewy texture and unique aroma make them a favorite among many.

 

When added to Mala Tang, they enhance the overall taste.

 

The wood ear mushrooms absorb the mala broth, offering a delightful crunchy bite.
