10 Simple Chinese Sauces

Click the image on the left to view the cookbook

I had the pleasure of hosting Martha Ma, a second generation American, who's an educator, health counselor, media maker, producer, artist, designer and a hard core foodie.  A Chinese, born in Korea and settled in New York, she was able to cut across cuisines. I wasted no time in getting her to help me put down 3 blogs on Chinese dipping sauces, Soy sauce pickles and Kimchi. I never realised how simple Chinese sauces and pickles can be !

One tip - use the best possible Soya sauce ( brewed & not synthetic) and anything you cook up would be delicious !

  2. Hi Sridaran,
    One page cookbooks are for the first time cook. The info on soy sauce brewing is just to demystify it - not to encourage first time cooks to try brewing it !

  3. WOW (impressed look). Your version looks so great.

    Here I bought a sauce pack for mapo tofu so as to skip all the seasonings! and i will try this friday after work.
