Chinese recipes
Chinese cooking covers many regional styles, but everyday home cooking leans on high-heat stir-frying, quick sauces built from soy, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar and a little sugar, and gentle steaming. The golden rule is to prep everything before the wok gets hot, because stir-frying takes minutes.
