REAL Chinese Food: A Photo Essay


 Filed Under:  China, Food, Photography by Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott

Noodles Piled High

Once you get past the mounds of chili-marinated chicken feet and the rows of village dogmeat vendors, Chinese food in China is terrific.

Regional Chinese cuisines and ethnic minority specialties deliver a diversity of flavors and texture. The vast array of peppers, spices and sauces ensure that taste buds rarely grow tired.

To whet your appetite, we dish up a selection of our Chinese food photos, including a special photo essay dedicated solely to the beloved dumpling (jiaozi).

Transparent Dumplings

Over the next couple of weeks, we will sprinkle our blog with observations from our culinary exploration of China – from Turkic Uighur food in the western province of Xinjiang to spicy Sichuan cuisine in southwestern China to street-side hot pot in the coastal city of Qingdao. Prepare your taste buds for something new.

    We’ll be writing more on Chinese food in the next weeks, so keep checking back!

    I’ve also really enjoyed perusing your website recently – the recipes, articles and photos are wonderful. Although, they are making me a bit more “homesick” for Chinese and Asian foods…
