About Sichuan food:
Back into three kingdoms, Sichuan area was the kingdom of shu (蜀国) and located in the southwest part of China. Sichuan people at that time liked to eat sweet food. Until Jin Dynasty, people add ginger, onions, chives and mustard into food and the food at that time is called pungent food. So at the very beginning, there is no “hot and spicy” in Chinese Sichuan cuisine.

  3. This is the reason why genuinely high-end restaurants need appointments. Fancy cuisines cannot be prepared in 30 minutes.

  18. Before you cook this recipe, you have to set your alarm by 4am in the morning, so you can have a special dinner. ?

  24. That pork belly received more attention, loved and carressed than most us will ever experience. ?

  30. We don't eat anything made by Chinese ????? , you can't trust someone causing a pandemic that big. ?

  37. Seriously??? Cooking all day for the main lunch of 2 people, which is going to be in the cesspit by the end of the same day???

  46. The most amazing thing of this video is that I learned how to make red bean paste, the osmanthus syrup, and cutting pork belly in a fancy way. It opens up so many possibilities, like substituting the red bean paste with the sweet rice, mashed potatoes, or even cheese. That’ll make it a new Americanized Chinese dish.
