Help w/ yellow bean paste...

[jpinmaryland]

I like all the replies but I think htc was most revealing, I dont think this yellow bean sauce is supposed to be used for stir fry but rather for braising or simmering...Havent gotten back to trying this out yet. Thanks all.

jpinmaryland, your yellow bean sauce is called 'tau cheo' in Singapore. It comes in paste form, brown or black, or in bean form. As htc correctly said, it is used for flavouring fish or meat. You can also add it to vegetable stews and soups. There is no need to use salt or soya sauce when using it.
