PRODUCT INFORMATION
Where there is a tide, there are Teochew people, spreading the delicious flavours of their home town around the world. Teochew cuisine has evolved and developed over thousands of years to form unique dishes, such as Teochew slow-braised dishes, various seafood dishes, and delightful snacks such as Guang Chiang, Peach Kueh, Taro Paste Roll, etc. These delicacies carry Teochew culinary culture and tradition and always conjure up endless flashbacks that are unforgettable impressions. Beyond the Chaoshan region in China, the footprint of Teochew people extends to Southeast Asia and other countries. Over time, Teochew individuals who settled in Malaysia gradually integrated their culinary heritage into the local cuisine. They not only preserved traditional culinary characteristics but also skillfully incorporated local ingredients, infusing Teochew cuisine with greater diversity and richness. Renowned chef Ivan Tan, a native of Teochew, leveraging his profound culinary experience, presents the essence of Teochew cuisine in a simple yet clear manner in this cookbook. He shares his family’s traditional Teochew dishes and some home-cooked recipes, allowing you to deeply appreciate the charm of Teochew cuisine.
