I think as long as they are authentic in Pixian County, I can only say that a few brands are OK, but it's really hard to choose who is the most authentic, and the old brands are OK. After eating for so many years, it depends on which flavor you prefer. Tell me about the authentic Pixian bean paste.
1. Juancheng brand Pixian bean paste, which is also an old brand. Authentic Pixian bean paste, from Sichuan, has not a lot of spicy flavor, and the beans have a strong fragrance. I think this is more suitable for boiled fish, which has a strong flavor and tastes better. This brand of bean paste is still quite famous in the country, and the beans are half and a half.
2. Dandan red oil Pixian bean paste, the price seems a little higher, which is endorsed by Song Dandan. The beans are more delicate, which is more suitable for cooking cooked pork, and Mapo bean curd is particularly delicious, which is more delicate than Juancheng brand Pixian bean paste.
3. Hengxing brand red oil bean paste is a specialty of Pixian county, which I heard later. It is said that this brand of Pixian bean paste tastes very good, and the price is very cheap. Many hotels use it. I haven't bought it, and I don't know the details, but it is said that the sales volume is very good now, and there is a tendency to exceed the first two.
The price of this bean paste is not very high. You can also buy a little less and try to see which one suits you better. I prefer Dandan red oil Pixian bean paste. I think the cooking color is good, and the beans are not that big. You can cook without treatment, and the fried dishes taste very good.
