This dish is all about getting messy and gluttonously eating with your hands. Limits on panfish are usually quite high, so if you can catch yourself a pile of them, and don’t mind some prep work, you can have your own little fish fry!

Mapo Tofu is a comforting spicy dish that originated in China’s Sichuan province. Its name loosely translates to Pockmarked Old Woman’s Tofu and points towards the dish’s creator in the city of Chengdu.
