Bangkok--26 Nov--Conrad Bangkok
Seasonal Ingredient: Ginger
At Liu Chinese Restaurant in Conrad Bangkok
Ginger has been a part of the culinary arts from time immemorial and is mentioned in the sources from ancient Egypt. Marco Polo mentions encountering it during his travels along the Silk Route in China in the 13th century. From there, it seems that love of the sweet and spicy flavor of ginger has in one way or other traveled the world's kitchens.
With a long tradition of herbal lore and appreciation of the medicinal properties of a wide range of herbs, roots and other fruits and vegetables, Chinese cuisine naturally holds an important place for ginger. Southern Cantonese cooking has especially favored it and our Master Chef Jacky Chan, from Hong Kong, is a gastronomic expert on precisely how to bring forth every nuance of ginger's tantalizing taste.
At Liu Chinese you can discover ginger in two inspired dishes throughout the month of November 2018:
Stewed Ginger and Pork Knuckle with Chinese Herbs and Black Vinegar in Cantonese Style
This juicy and delicious dish is a paradigm of Cantonese Chinese cooking and flavors. The slightly tangy richness is mouthwatering ecstasy and a must-try in the exploration of the cuisine.
Price: THB 300 ++
Available throughout November at Liu Chinese restaurant.
Double Boiled Ginger Soup with Peach Gum and Bean Curd Flower
Amidst the stimulating taste of ginger, the lovely curd flower is a beautiful vision in this delightful soup, which is warming for the soul and good for the health during winter in cold regions.
Price: THB 160 ++
Available throughout November at Liu Chinese restaurant.
