🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a soy-free version, use coconut aminos in place of soy sauce and choose a soy-free stock concentrate. For gluten-free needs, swap any wheat-based thickener or noodles on the side for rice or rice noodles, and keep the black beans, chicken, mushrooms, and water chestnuts as is.
What to serve with it
Serve with steamed jasmine rice or noodles to soak up the savory black bean sauce, plus a simple side of bok choy, broccoli, or cucumber salad for freshness. A light green tea or crisp lager also fits the bold, aromatic flavors.
