Stewed Chinese Black Mushrooms.

A tradition in family dinners. Chinese black mushrooms are also, apparently, shiitake mushrooms. I’ve always suspected so…

Chicken Cantonese

Mom and I had never even tasted Chinese food until about 1980 — that’s when the Hunan Chinese Restaurant opened up in Moberly. We had lunch there frequently and liked the chicken dishes the best. From the kitchen of Wanda Cupp Thornburg, Moberly MO.

Easy Chinese Soy-Braised Chicken

This is a quick Cantonese recipe for succulent, melt-off-the-bone tender chicken from Diana Kuan’s excellent blog, “Appetite for China”. The liquid should cover at 3/4 of the chicken; if you need more liquid maintain the 2 parts soy sauce to 3 parts water ratio.

Egg Foo Young

quick, easy, affordable. We’re on a no wheat diet and I came up with this recipe which is similar to egg foo young without the sauce and cornstarch.

Egg Foo Yung

Quick, easy, and delicious!! With this fresh dish, you’ll soon forget about the mushy, overgravied versions of your youth. Perfect for lunch, part of your brunch buffet (instead of omelettes), or a light dinner.
