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!

Once deep-fried, the puffs, unlike fresh bean curd which will perish within 2-3 days even when refrigerated, can be kept for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator. They are a useful ingredient to use with meat, fish and vegetables as they soak up sauces and add an interesting dimension to the dish.

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.
