Sesame Noodles
My mom whips up sesame noodles on a hot summer night when she doesn’t feel like standing in front of a hot stove. With its nutty, savory sauce that has hints of sweetness and spiciness, this dish is always a crowd-pleaser.
Egg-Less Egg Drop Soup
This version of the classic soup is made with plant-based ingredients while preserving all the character of the original. It’s one of the dishes that I make most frequently at home because it’s so simple yet so satisfying.
Sichuan String Beans With Garlic Sauce
Blistered and charred green beans are tossed in an aromatic sauce, making this dish too good to pass up. And it’s substantial enough to serve as a main dish.
Soy Sauce Noodles
A quick and easy meal for one, this light and invigorating noodle soup is perfect for lunch or as a side dish at dinner. You can easily make it more substantial by topping it with some smoked or crispy tofu.
