By cooking Asian dishes?
I do love my 5 spice

I'm not asian but I saved a lot of family recipes. Niche, lower class cultural and regional things. It's always easy to make food you've been eating as a kid… especially if someone in your family can help you. i would suggest to go to one of those giant asian market grocery stores but the amount of ingredients may be overwhelming, and an online guide would probably overlook it.

Coconut milk, chili powder or oil, sesame oil, white rice, then figure out what you like. Lots of root vegetables. There's a chart on yin food and yang food or shui and huo or whatever use that for deciding what you want to eat.

i've never made curry before…only tried it a few times in my life
i saw a video on how to make it the other day and was blown away by how cheap it is…usually any time i see a valuable somewhat healthy food source that is inexpensive i incorporate it into my diet…my most recent thing is Mexican Tajin….you can literally put that stuff on anything and make it taste good

Ginger, garlic, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, chili oil, tofu, corn starch, chinkiang vinegar, mirin, shaoxing wine. I'd recommend learning how to cook some good tofu.

recipe books with sections on technique are good. most importantly just cook a lot and practice a lot. it will get easier with time

i think with asian food it's easy to overdo it with the spices so watch out for that

Don't use too much black pepper. It's like sandpaper coming out the other end.

>>1366i stand corrected… (though i've definitely had times where i went a bit too hard on the soy sauce and it made whatever i was cooking like 4/10 but, ya know, ymmv)

>>1367disregard this sushi roll too. black pepper is awesome. add more.
No.1371
>>1368soy sauce has the inherent quality of high sodium. seasonings without added salt and sugar can be used in ample quantity. the only way to perfect a recipe is to make it repeatedly and see what works.

>>1370you just doomed op to hours upon hours of other end sandpapering…
