Luxi Posted November 18, 2016 at 02:48 PM Report Posted November 18, 2016 at 02:48 PM The delights of cooking Chinese food: A conversation with chef and author Fuchsia Dunlop Legendary Chinese chef and author Fuchsia Dunlop joins the Sinica Podcast this week to talk about her culinary career and her latest book, "Land of Fish and Rice." Our strong advice: Don't listen to this podcast if you're too far away from your next good Chinese meal! ------------------------- I'm sure it'll be worth listening to, but I'm going to have something to eat (a boring sandwich probably) before I do. 1 Quote
Angelina Posted November 18, 2016 at 03:20 PM Report Posted November 18, 2016 at 03:20 PM Not really related to Fuchsia, but today I saw that Wagas is hiring and for a very brief moment thought about applying because I just love their food. Probably going to be a regular customer though. Love the place. What part of China is Fuchsia from? Somewhere near the sea? Quote
imron Posted November 18, 2016 at 05:45 PM Report Posted November 18, 2016 at 05:45 PM What part of China is Fuchsia from? England. Though last I heard, it's not part of China yet. Quote
Luxi Posted November 18, 2016 at 05:47 PM Author Report Posted November 18, 2016 at 05:47 PM Fuchsia is British from London I think. I liked the interview very much - and yes, it made me feel hungry. Quote
Guest realmayo Posted November 19, 2016 at 07:34 AM Report Posted November 19, 2016 at 07:34 AM Thanks for the link, good interview. I agree with the guy who said that her books let you cook food at home that basically will taste like what you ate in China. Seems a good moment to share again a link to her pizzle puzzle: https://www.buzzfeed.com/luckypeach/how-to-make-dick-soup Quote
abcdefg Posted November 19, 2016 at 03:55 PM Report Posted November 19, 2016 at 03:55 PM What part of China is Fuchsia from? Somewhere near the sea? She trained in Sichuan (Chengdu) and therefore knows a lot about that cuisine as well as that of neighboring Hunan. Her initial fame and reputation were built on dishes from those regions. "Land of Fish and Rice," however, deals mainly with the food of Jiangnan 江南 (Lower Yangzte River area,) including Shanghai. In this more recent (2016) book she is branching out and exploring another major style of Chinese cooking. 1 Quote
Michaelyus Posted November 20, 2016 at 01:25 AM Report Posted November 20, 2016 at 01:25 AM Dunlop was the main (if not the only) reason I starting reading the British broadsheets at all! Quote
Angelina Posted November 20, 2016 at 02:06 AM Report Posted November 20, 2016 at 02:06 AM Thanks God I am not a man and can't be lured into reading that exotica Quote
