Asian

Asian cuisine is a harmony of contrasts, where simplicity meets layered flavor. It spans countless traditions — from refined Japanese dishes to vibrant Thai, from spice-forward Indian cooking to the balanced flavors of Korea and China.

This section highlights what makes Asian cooking so diverse: rice and noodles, fresh vegetables and seafood, soy-based sauces, aromatic broths, and the spices that define each dish.

Asian food is easy to recreate at home: a few core ingredients and the right sauces form the backbone of flavor. Soy, fish, or oyster sauce, a hint of sweet-and-sour — each adds depth, balance, and umami that makes the food feel complete.

Here you’ll find both classics and home-friendly adaptations with clear steps, so you can bring recognizable Asian flavors into your kitchen in a simple, natural way.

Sweet and Savory Pork with Daikon

Thinly sliced pork and daikon are sautéed together, then simmered in a sweet-savory glaze made with mirin, soy sauce, and oyster sauce. The daikon turns tender with a slight bite, the sauce becomes glossy, and the whole dish comes together quickly. It’s simple, comforting, and great with a bowl of steamed rice.

The result is a quick kimchi that stays fresh and bright with a pleasant heat — great alongside many dishes.
