Luxi 820 Report post Posted November 18, 2016 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. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angelina 485 Report post Posted November 18, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
imron 5,241 Report post Posted November 18, 2016 What part of China is Fuchsia from? England. Though last I heard, it's not part of China yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luxi 820 Report post Posted November 18, 2016 Fuchsia is British from London I think. I liked the interview very much - and yes, it made me feel hungry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
realmayo 1,824 Report post Posted November 19, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abcdefg 4,370 Report post Posted November 19, 2016 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
