It took me a while to figure out fermented black beans. Too salty, too garlicky…I like to use in veggie dishes, and they always took over. Some experimenting, trying different brands, different rinsing…now I love them. I haven’t soaked in rice wine before, but sure will try that.

My fav uses…Hope I’m spelling right…Mapo Dofu…with a boatload of leeks & scallions & spice.

And I love doing just a pile of veggies with them in the wok. And toss on some rice. Great lil vegetarian dinner.

Mussels are my #1 desert island & I will be trying this recipe this weekend. Looks so simple & yummy. And thanks for the video… no sexier food sound than the sound of mussels hitting the bowl 😂. Might need to make it my ring tone.. 😂

Love your vid! Only one gentle suggestion…when recording, move more slowly around your cooking space. I’d like to better soak up your recording so I can visualize it as I read your recipe. And I tend to get motion sick, unfortunately. Can’t wait to try some fermented black beans!

Wow, the video looks great! So does the food! Question: can this be done on an electric range? And, is that a non-stick style pan?
