China
Food, wine and other drinks from China.
Mandarin style cuisine
Mandarin style cuisine is a delight to the eye as well as the palette. In Mandarin style cooking, presentation is key. Whether making a delicious Peking Duck or simply a bit of Mu Shu Pork, it has to be done with style.
Hunan style cuisine
The Hunan province in China is home to over 64 million people. Located near the center of this vast country, it has received cooking influences from far and wide.
Chinese food
Chinese food is famous for its bright colors, beautiful forms, tempting aromas and variety of flavors. It is more than the straight-forward, plentiful and cheap fare we are used to see in many Chinese restaurants over the world.
The Mighty and versatile wok
If there is a single cooking tool that stands above all others in Chinese cuisine it would have to be the wok.
Chinese food preparation methods
Chinese food recipes, naturally, start with a set of ingredients found in Cantonese, Szechuan and other provincial styles. But the methods often migrate across borders.
Dim sum
Many Westerners think of dim sum as a small dumpling with meat in sweet sauce inside. Indeed, that is one popular type. But dim sum is not a particular recipe, but a way of serving that entails dozens of choices.
Chinese cuisine
Chinese cuisine is as wide as the country. There are Imperial dishes and local cuisines, ethnic minority's dishes -such as Mongolian dishes, Tibetan dishes, Manchu dishes, or Zhan dishes- and vegetarian dishes, even dishes with strong religious flavor, such as those from an Islamic background.
Cantonese style cuisine
Canton style cuisine is varied and cosmopolitan. Characterized by gentle spices, fresh ingredients and slow, careful preparation it may not seem to be the best choice for a restaurant. Yet, Cantonese retains its status as a favorite of millions. Originating from the Guangdong province in China, this style of cooking provides a menu that contains something for everyone.
Chicken chow mein
Chow mein is a dish of stir fried noodles to which other ingredients can be added.
Pak choy stir fry
Vegetable stir fries are slow to prepare, as all vegetables need to be cut to the same size, but quick to cook.
