In the era of scarce materials, almost every family would cook such a one-pot dish in the winter. The ingredients are simpler It's almost like a combination of dried tofu and potatoes. Later, the chef in the restaurant added eight different ingredients, named Babao Chili Sauce, which suddenly changed from a commoner dish to a tall, enduring dish. Since the spicy food of Shanghainese is different from that of Sichuan-Guizhou region, the entrance is not so exciting.

Every Shanghai hot sauce has its own recipe, no matter the authenticity, the taste that suits your own is the best, if you like it, you can try to make it.
