In cookery, the Chinese often enjoy making up a dish to resemble the looks, if not also the taste of a particular ingredient, giving the dish the same name. This very light and delightful summer dessert, which looks like bean curd is, in fact, not bean curd at all!

Black bean sauce is a very popular condiment in Chinese cuisine. In case you have never come across with it, it is actually made from fermented black soybeans. It is strong, exotic with salty taste. It adds texture and richness to the dishes. Combined with tender beef fillets and green paper, it is a delicious, full flavoured dish for all beef lovers.

Like Shark's fin soup, Bird's nest soup reaches the heights of Chinese cuisine, though Westerners are often put off by the name and the fact that it is produced by swallow's saliva. On its own, bird's nest is bland, and its function is to provide texture, rather than taste to the soup. A very rich, prime stock is therefore essential as a base, as is the Chicken velvet. And yet, without the bird's nest, no amount of stock or chicken velvet could produce the unique quality of this soup.

A Cantonese fire pot reflects what's easily available in the region, and it therefore consists of seafood as well as meat and vegetables. If you do not want to use the traditional charcoal-burning fire pot for cooking at the table, use a heatproof bowl and burner or an electric pot.

Wontons, or small dumplings, served in broth are a national Chinese snack. The main ingredient for wonton filling is pork, but in Kwangtung, shrimps and prawns are also used, because they are so easily available. This addition gives the wontons a much more interesting taste and texture.
