One of the first dishes I learned from Karim was to make Saozi Noodles. He grew up eating lots of it and his family makes several different versions of Saozi Noodles at home. The first time I ate it, I couldn’t believe how filling it was. Just a bowl was enough to keep me full for the entire day!

How’s the flavor?

Since we make variations of it, the flavor changes according to the ingredients used. But we never fail to enjoy a big bowl of Saozi Noodles with black vinegar, Kaijia Chilli Oil and raw garlic. Adding those condiments bring out the best flavors.

Chinese Halal food producers eager to invest in Pakistan

The last part of the article says that; ‘Pakistani and Chinese people share some preferences in terms of food. For example, Sichuan food features spicy flavor, which exactly meets the preference of Pakistani people.’.

For the longest time ever, there is a misconception that Chinese food isn’t spicy. The statement in the article pretty much debunked that.

Culinary skills a boon for hotel exec-turned-chef

Moving closer to home, this is a heartwarming story of how a former hotel exec came up with her very own sweet and savoury homemade halal dumplings business. The dumplings here refer to the 粽子, or commonly known as chang.
