I have been cooking for 10 years mainly in Chinese cuisine. My cooking gears are some simple carbon steel wok, cast iron pot, marble pot, steamer, pressure cooker and air fryer. Most ingredients are common seafood, meat, poultry, herbs and spices can be found in local markets. I enjoy home cooking over the weekends and keep on researching and exploring new recipes and excited to share my new delicious recipes to all of you!
