SUMMARY:FIVE TASTES: An Evening with Fuchsia Dunlop
DESCRIPTION:Fuchsia tackles the “five tastes” which a Chinese chef needs to be able to marshal harmoniously: salty\, sweet\, sour\, bitter and pungent. \n\n\n‘Fuchsia Dunlop has done more to explain real Chinese cooking to non-Chinese cooks than anyone’\, according to The New York Times. Dunlop\, a four-time James Beard award winner and TV food expert (Chef’s Table; Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown) has already explored Hunan cooking and Szechuan food with her large legion of readers. Now\, in her latest book\, she tackles the “five tastes” which a Chinese chef needs to be able to marshal harmoniously: salty\, sweet\, sour\, bitter and pungent. The delectable result might be green beans with “strange-flavor” sauce\, spicy peanut butter noodles\, or a steamed fish that sings with citrus notes. Join Dunlop as she explores the magical complexity of one of the world’s greatest cuisines.

SUMMARY:Hand Taste: Cook Like a Korean Grandmother with Esther Choi
DESCRIPTION:We all know cooks whose fingertips seem to infuse every meal with deliciousness. In Korean\, that magic touch is called sohn-mat\, or “hand taste”―but you don’t have to be born with it. Esther Choi picked hers up from her halmoni\, or grandmother\, who used her hands for everything from smearing cabbage with pepper paste to make kimchi to crumbling tofu for mandu (dumpling) filling and tossing vibrantly flavored noodles for japchae. \nHand taste starts with seasoning but ultimately describes a way of cooking rooted in heritage\, intuition\, and heart. In her hotly anticipated debut cookbook Hand Taste: Cook Like a Korean Grandmother Choi offers delicious entry points to Korean and Korean-American cuisine\, with foundational techniques alongside quick weeknight recipes and show-stopping traditional spreads. \nIn her conversation with Eric Kim\, Esther Choi will discuss her career and her debut cookbook. \nPre-order your copy of Hand Taste: Cook Like a Korean Grandmother here.
