Black Beans 🫘 Mamahuhu Glossary Fermented black soybeans or douchi (豆豉), an often overlooked staple of Chinese cuisine. Translated simply as “black beans”, they’re considered more of a condiment— totally different than the black turtle beans found in burritos. Some classic Cantonese dishes featuring this ingredient include black bean clams and black bean spareribs. In fact, it’s one of the oldest-known foods made from soybeans with over 2000 years of history. Our new Eggplant Tofu house special incorporates this ancient ingredient for its deep savory flavor. Imagine little bursts of salty umami, similar to that of soy sauce or miso, but with a complex character all its own.
Growing up, our lunchboxes were filled with flavors that turned heads and wrinkled noses. As we prepare to send our children back to school, the food remains unchanged, yet the narrative has evolved. We’re optimistic that the “stinky lunchbox” trope is now a relic of the past, replaced by a new generation of curiosity. Our latest menu is inspired by our cherished back-to-school memories and Chinese-American favorites: lunchboxes filled with fried rice from your aunt’s restaurant to now packing lunches for your own kids starting school. New menu coming this Friday 9/6
Yes— you can eat chrysanthemum greens! It comes from the same plant as the flower tea we’re familiar with 🌼🥬 We source young and fresh greens (shoutout to our farmer Martin) for their herbaceous flavor and serve them raw in our Chrysanthemum Salad. The chrysanthemum salad was one of the first recipes we created when developing the Mamahuhu menu. We actually took it off the menu before opening, but we missed it so much that it found its way back, now a staple menu item.
