Hi Maomaoma, any substitutes for anka sauce or red yeast rice? Can’t find it anywhere…. Thanks!
Unfortunately, no other substitute, just do not use it.
你好，请问菜谱中常提到的红曲米或红糟酱在北美哪里能买到啊
华人超市看看。
毛毛妈，想请教下如果排骨换成带皮五花肉，做红烧肉，也用电高压锅，需要多少时间呢？谢谢！
差不多时间。
Red Yeast Rice is found at health food stores and is considered in Chinese traditonal medicine. I have been given it by my older sister who is well versed in natural and homeopathic medicines.
Do you include it for health reasons or is there a flavor or color to it that makes the recipe authentic in that way? Or both?
For flavor.
