Mark Your Calendar: Cooking Up History: Stir-Frying To The Sky’s Edge: Chinese Americans And The Power Of Stir-Frying

In Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge, culinary historian and award-winning cookbook author Grace Young writes about how for centuries the Chinese carried their woks and stir-frying techniques around the globe. The ancient technique of stir-frying played an important role in the culinary lives of Chinese migrants and their families, providing comfort and a way to remain faithful to the culinary traditions of their homeland. For many, opening a Chinese restaurant provided their only means of survival. Young, known as "the stir-fry guru" and "wok therapist", demonstrates her stir-fry expertise as she shares tips on wok mastery for home cooks. Tickers are $20 and the event is from 6:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. For tickets and more information please click here.
