It's the closest we're gonna get to heavy metals in our food, for that authentic Chinese taste.

Hong shao ruo is so amazing and I keep buying kilos of pork belly so I can make more and more.

The only time the Chinese I know do this is when parboiling (which makes sense, I guess). Apparently there's a name for this, 汆.

It's Maggi. Thought it was just a Dutch thing (we dump it in our soups), it's basically soy sauce.

When I brought cheese to Korea for the goons, one of them told me my life was in grave danger for possessing such quantities of fine Gouda cheese. (if you're in Asia and you really need some cheese, get me a plane ticket and I'll get it sorted )

Any good gas burners for woks? I just have an induction cooking plate and obviously that's not going to work out (round bottom doesn't transfer the heat, not getting hot enough, can't shake it without losing heat).

EVG posted:Found a recipe for stir fried chicken & bok choy with Oyster sauce that calls for "1 heaping teaspoon Guilin chili sauce". It's basically just chili peppers, garlic, soybeans, salt, sugar and sesame. So any sauce should suffice, especially since it's just a teaspoon. Main difference with the regular chili bean sauce is that that one contains some fermented beans.

Any advice on roasting a goose? I'm mostly thinking about the marinade for the insides while the skin is drying. e: Goose, not duck. I know my way around a duck. vanity slug fucked around with this message at 04:34 on Dec 7, 2014 |

Nickoten posted:This may be a stupid question, but is there a reason we chop garlic and ginger into chunks or slice them thinly for aromatics rather than grating them? It seems like they would dissolve into the oil faster that way. I ask this because my parents (Trinidadians) also use Chinese-style aromatics in their Caribbean cooking and they always do chunks instead of thin slices for aromatics. Can someone explain this to me? Different cuts of garlic will have different flavours. Grated garlic BURNS.

I'm making some char siu sous vide. 16 hours at 60C (pork belly). Will report on results tomorrow.

It wasn't char siu but it was good. Will try again with pictures later for the benefit of the thread.

Grand Fromage posted:Okay but what's an example way you'd use it in cooking? Is it supposed to be a topping or does it add something to the dish? She uses it as a topping, especially good for porridge apparently. Or to make the base sauce for hotpot. Or as a snack, but that's kinda weird.

We can't get Japanese rice over here, but Korean is decent as well. They're basically the same anyway.

Grand Fromage posted:Good doubanjiang ages for literally years. Even a real basic one is six months minimum. I think that's one of those things like soy sauce where it's just not worth the trouble. I've got a fermentation pot I'm not gonna use for a while, and I've always wanted to make it, so I figured why not.
