Welcome to a day in my life, food edition! When it comes to childhood eats, I admit it almost feels like I won the lottery ticket. I mean…c’mon, Chinese food is simply the best (totally unbiased opinion). There are combinations of sweet, savory, sour, spicy, and so many other complex flavors my taste buds can’t define. Please, please, please take a stab at some of these dishes before driving over to your local Panda Express. Trust me, it’s worth it.

BREAKFAST
Yellow Rice Porridge 黄稀饭

When I think of home, this warm bowl of yellow rice porridge made from my Grandpa’s care immediately jumps to mind. The rice takes on a thickened soup consistency, creating a textured flavor bomb of savory soup. No fancy adjectives can fully express the comfort you’ll feel from one spoonful of this porridge. Follow a recipe, visit your local Chinese breakfast store, I don’t care what you do….this should be the next breakfast item you try

I’m salivating. This dish is more addicting than any suspicious, small gummy you take from your friend at a music festival. The bean curd strips are firm but soft, pairing perfectly with the tender pork strips. When my dad pulls this dish out on the table, I know I’m downing three bowls of white rice.

Salty, with a hint of spice, these pork slices melt in your mouth, preparing your palate perfectly for the incoming bite of white rice. Remember the bean curd slices from earlier? You won’t believe this—they are often incorporated in this gorgeous stir fry. Talk about a winning duo.
