Hello and welcome to A Dash of Soy: a channel about food, motherhood, and Chinese culture! I’m Christine – wife to Allen, mom to 2 adorable kiddos, Connor, and Mila, and home cook!
To me, food is not just simply something we eat. It’s culture and history. It’s love and connection. It’s a feeling and a memory that transports us to a place or a moment back in time. My most vivid food memories were summers spent in Hong Kong; the hot humidity, the smell of spices wafting through the air, the steam coming from the street carts where I sampled street food like curry fish balls, wonton mein, and rice cakes. During this time, I developed a deep appreciation and curiosity of my culture through food and over time, I’ve had the privilege of traveling to numerous countries where I was able to learn more about other Asian cuisines and cultures and expand my palate. Come join me, I'd love to share my cooking journey with you.
