Best of China
Introduction
The Chinese have perfected the art of rapid cooking over a period of many centuries. They invented the wok, which encured ingredients cooked quickly and eventy. This, coincidentally, helped to preserve the colour, texture, flavour and nutrients of the food.
Stir-frying is the best-known Chenese cooking technique. The ingredients are chopped, sliced or shredded into even-size pieces and they are constantly tossed and stirred. The wok is also ideal for other fast-food techniques, such as deep frying and steaming. Bamboo steamers are available in a range of sizes from kitchenware shops and Chinese supermarkets.
In Chinese cooking, the emphasis is on qality and freshness: cuts of meat should be lean and tender and vegetables and herbs bright and fish.
Flavourings & Spices
You can now obtain Chinese ingredients from most supermarkets.
Black bean products: Black bean sauce or paste is made from salter fermented soy beans, mixed to a paste with flavourings. It is highly concentrated and usually added at the start of cooking to release the flavour. A sweet version is also available. Preserved black beans are very salty and pungent.
Chillues, fresh & dried: A wide variety of these hot capsicums is available. Sweet chilli sauce is made from chillies, vinegar, sugar and salt. Use sparingly for cooking and dipping. Chilli bean paste is made from fermented bean paste with hot chillies added.
Chinese rice wine: Shaosing wine is reputedly the finest variety. It has a rich, sherry-like flavour.
Chinese sesame paste: This has a stronger flavour than the Middle Eastern version.
Five-spice powder: A finely ground mixture of fennel seeds, star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, cloves and cinnamon. It has a fairly strong liquorice taste and a pungent aroma and should be used sparingly during cooking.
Garlic: This aromatic vegetable is one of the most important flavourings in Chinese cooking. The most common way of preparing garlic is to peel it, then chop it finely or mince it in a garlic press.
Ginger: Fresh root ginger is an essential flavouring ingredient in Chinese cooking. It is peeled, then sliced, shredded or minced before use. It can also be pickled.
Hoisin sauce : A thick, rich, dark sauce often used for flavouring meat and poultry before cooking, or in a dipping sauce.
Oyster sauce: This thick, dark sauce is made from oyster juice, flour, salt and sugar. It is usually added at the end of cooking.
Plum sauce: This has a unique fruity flavour with a sweet and sour taste.
Rice vinegar: A colourless, slightly sweet vinegar used to add sharpness to sweet-and-sour dishes. If rice vinegar is not obtaineble, use write wine vinegar is not obtainable, use white wine vinegar or cider vinegar sweettened with sugar.
Sesame oil: This aromatic oil is made from roasted sesame seeds. Small qantities are used at the end of cooking.
Sichuan peppercorns: Red aromatic peppercorns which are best used roaster and ground.
Soy sauce (light & dark): This is made from fermented soy beans, yeast, salt and sugar. Light soy sauce is a thin sauce used for flavouring and also as a table accompaniment. The flavour is lightler and fresher than dark soy sauce, but a little more salty.
