Techniques make its unique
Wok Hay (28 May 2022)
The aroma and flavour that a hot wok imparts to food during stir-frying. Unfortunately, it will dissipate when the food gets cool.
Yet, the second chef of the Clarendon restaurant is cooking the heirloom cauliflower with black garlic. He has been working as a chef for 5 years and specialises in Cantonese and Malaysian cuisine.
When asked why do you think wok hay is so important,
“The dishes… no Wok Hay, no spiritual”, he replied in Cantonese.
Instead of saying wok hay is a cooking technique, it is more like a cultural representation.
