Descrizione
Discover the food wisdom behind Cantonese home cooking in Guangzhou. Visit a traditional herbal shop, learn about local ingredients, and prepare a 4-dish meal with the help of your hosts.
Begin your culinary journey by exploring a local herbal shop. Discover the dried roots, flowers, fruits, and other ingredients used in traditional Chinese food culture. Learn how people distinguish culinary herbs from everyday cooking ingredients, why herbal soups hold such an important place in Cantonese family meals, and how traditional ideas about warming, cooling, and balance influence what people cook.
Then, head into a local home kitchen to put these ideas into practice. With guidance from your hosts, prepare a four-dish Cantonese meal featuring one traditional herbal soup and three seasonal dishes. Each dish introduces ingredients traditionally associated with different food-therapy properties, from a refreshing lily bulb, celery, and wood-ear mushroom stir-fry to a slow-simmered soup built around a thoughtful combination of ingredients.
Along the way, learn about the ingredients, cooking techniques, and family habits behind the dishes, including why soup is so often served at the Cantonese dinner table. Finally, sit down together to enjoy the meal you've prepared, with Chinese tea and conversation in a local home.
