Traditional chinese cooking colors are these five: red for good fortune, yellow for nourishment, green for growth, black for tranquility, and white for purity. Red, green and yellow are also major colors in the rainbow.

The five major flavors are spicy, salty, sweet, sour and a hint of bitter like in garlic or turmeric. This dish combines all of the above colors and flavors.

For the red, we Stirfry the flank steak under two minutes, cut thin in strips across the grain, in red pepper sauce. Juicy and tender! Served with spicy red beets sauteed in pepper sauce and steak drippings.

For the green, our lil farm produces fresh green peas and green onion stalks. Doused in sweet rice wine.

The spicy red flank steak, salty yellow peanut fried rice, sweet green peas, slightly bitter garlic black beans, and white sour onion rings are then laid out as a rainbow. Enjoy the mixture of flavors and colors!

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
