Hello homecooks!
Hope you are excited about the upcoming Chinese New Year as much as we are! Today we will be sharing with you a Staple, Must-Have recipe this CNY, Mala & Tomato Soup Bases. Hotpot is the easiest and fuss-free thing to prepare and the most vital part of this dish will definitely be the Soup Bases.
These 2 soup bases are fairly easy to prepare and the best part is you can make a big batch of the pastes and store it! This way, you can enjoy freshly made soup bases through CNY!
All the spices can be found easily in the supermarket, if not the chinese herb store. We used normal chillis instead of the szechuan ones and it WORKS! However, the Chilli Flakes are crucial in creating the fragrance of the Mala Soup base. The most ideal ones are definitely the SzeChuan Chilli Flakes followed by Korean Chilli Flakes.
