food
Information about food, meaning anything solid eaten for sustenance - solid to distinguish it from beverages.
Chinese noodles
Noodles are, to indulge an obvious pun, a staple of Chinese dishes. Whether Cantonese or Mandarin, Hunan or Szechuan, some type of noodle is almost always found in breakfast, lunch or dinner recipes.
Yorkshire pudding
Yorkshire pudding is usually seen accompanying a roast, but it can also be served with a sauce as an appetizer, or after the main course, with a syrup, as a dessert of sorts.
Szechuan style cuisine
Surrounded by mountains, including the famed Himalayas to the north, Szechuan province has given the world a unique cuisine.
Shanghai style cuisine
Shanghai is one of the most prosperous, active and cosmopolitan cities in the world. At any given time there are over a thousand major construction projects taking place in this city of over 20 million. It should come as no surprise, therefore, that the cuisine of this region should be equally cosmopolitan.
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.
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.
