If I close my eyes, I can imagine myself in Taipein. The damp air, the sounds of the market, the smell of the food prepared by the street vendors, and the taste of spicy and fermented flavors that were once unknown, but now I long for. Asia is a large continent, with many countries, cultures and cuisines, so this section cannot be extensive. But I hope to provide a good sample of the flavors and recipes I enjoy cooking and eating in the region. I learned some recipes from my mother or other Taiwanese relatives; others, since I spent living, studying, and working in different Asian countries; and others were inspired by restaurant meals.

My parents emigrated from Taiwan in the mid-1960s as a graduate student, and the paths they took as a researcher led me to a national laboratory located in the semirural east of Long Island, New York, where I spent a carefree childhood playing in the woods, collecting rocks, and cycling. When I was in elementary school we were the only Asian family in town, and there was no Asian food nearby. In fact, to get a taste of my parents ’hometown, we had to go two hours to Chinatown, New York, or fly more than sixteen hours to get to the fountain. That meant for my first taste: I knew Italian and Jewish food more than any kind of Asian, and the Chinese food I wanted was fried egg foo yung and chow mein noodles served with sweet duck sauce. This meant that she didn’t have to grow up in the kitchen to learn how to cook the food she was missing that meant what she was missing. It was the place where we lived and at the same time he had to get creative with substitutions, as all immigrants do, such as spaghetti instead of fresh noodle eggs, and he had to learn to do DIY, such as making and salting his salted duck eggs and chili oil. . its bean sprouts. When we arrived in New York, we supplied staples that were stable on the shelves as much as possible: dried noodles, short grain rice, Taiwanese pickles, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and dried shrimp.

When I went to college, I had the opportunity to get to know the culture of Asian America and the cultures of many other countries in East and South Asia. I joined all the Asian American associations and for the first time I got to know foods from countries other than Taiwan, such as China, Korea, Japan, India, and Thailand. I studied abroad in Singapore, during which time I also had the opportunity to visit Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. After graduating from university, I worked in China’s Sichuan province and was also able to visit other Chinese cities, including Xian and Beijing, and Hong Kong, which was under Chinese control. While I did all of this with my student budget, I ate well and began to understand that they are a great gateway to understanding the foods of a culture. I learned to appreciate spice and spice, acidity and fermentation funk. I started to enjoy visiting local markets. I married a man from Trinidad, whose DNA has traces of India, China and other places, and I learned how to prepare lost Indian Indian food. All of these experiences helped me develop my palate and a multi-flavored appreciation of Asia.

I will not claim that these recipes are “real” or “traditional”; they are a modern representation of my tastes when I returned home and spent a lot of time there. In many cases, I’ve made plant versions of dishes that may be more popular with meat, making them lighter and healthier. While you’re cooking through these recipes, I hope you’ll feel transported to the different countries and cultures that inspired them. As we say in Taiwan, chiàh-pn? g! (Literally, “eat rice”; in conversation, “let’s eat!”)
