Chinese Menus

Friday, June 4th, 2010

The Menus we have suggested here are those we would choose in our favourite Chinese Restaurant, Fu Tong. The dishes “go together” as it were. But anyone can make just as suitable selections.

As in any other menu planning, one would avoid having two similar important dishes at the one meal. Further, one would be unlikely to serve two pork dishes at the one meal though, strangely enough, two chicken dishes can appear.

With a few exceptions, such as fried sea bass and Cantonese duck, most of the dishes in this website: www.agape-cookingthechineseway.com

Chicken Stock

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

White stock made with boiling fowl and knuckle of veal for maximum flavour. Cheaper versions use carcass, skin and giblets plus poultry scarps; or giblets only. Always include celery, a few root vegetables and herbs.

Uses: Good poultry flavor, pale color. An excellent general purpose stock for all types of soups, sauces for vegetables and white meat dishes, moistening white meat casseroles and pies and boiling rice for savory dishes or for risottos.
