Cooking Tips
Fresh Ginger

Ginger or ginger root should have smooth outer skins. If the skin has wrinkles and is rough, this is a sign of age. Store in the refrigerator wrapped in a brown paper bag or loosely wrapped in a plastic bag.


Cooking Tips
Soy Sauce

Soy sauce has been a staple in Chinese cooking for thousands of years. Soy sauce is produced from fermented soy beans, wheat flour, water, and salt.
