Use soft tofu, not silken tofu, to prevent the dish from becoming mushy. The texture of soft tofu holds up better during cooking.
Toasting Sichuan peppercorns enhances their flavor and numbing quality significantly.
When frying chili bean paste, ensure to extract the red oil by frying it slowly over medium heat, as this is crucial for the dish's color and flavor.
Stir the tofu gently in the wok to prevent the cubes from breaking apart.
The amount of chili powder can be adjusted to your personal heat tolerance. The recipe provides a good range.
Don't be afraid of the red oil; it's essential for Sichuan food and won't make the dish taste overly oily.
