Episode 42: Heritage of Chinese Cooking: The Wok

This week on A Taste of the Past, Linda is joined by author and wok master Grace Young. Her latest book is Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge, a book that explores everything from the origins and health benefits of stir-frying to the technique’s great economy of time and fuel. Linda and Grace discuss the history of both stir-frying and the wok, and how American culture has reshaped how we see both. Tune in to learn which cookware is the best to stir fry with, how immigrants adapt when they can’t find ingredients of their native cuisine and what happens when Chinese and Jamaican chefs work side by side. This episode was sponsored by the good people at Fairway Market, like no other market!.
