Hi, Nice to see you. I am Elaine, the owner, cook, and photographer here. I live in China now and grew up in Sichuan province. During my early childhood; I had two great cooks around: my mother and her mother. Growing up, I traveled around China and I enjoyed the yummy dishes from many different cuisines.
The initial purpose of this blog is to introduce the dishes I cooked daily and of course, most of the dishes are Sichuan food. So I name the blog, chinasichuanfood. But it goes far beyond Sichuan cuisine as the blog continues to be popular among you, all of my dear readers.
Cooking makes me happy with a feeling of clam. I love photography too.

I enjoy your website and recipes very much.
But I would like to ask if you could re-add the 'sort recipes by new' function.
I always used it to just see what was most recently added, so I could look forward to cooking it.
Searching by ingredient is also nice, but I think the search by date was a necessary function.
Take care, and continue your excelent work.
Elaine
Thank you Catarina. That's a great suggestion. I already it.
Catarina Pereira
Thank you so much.
I will do my best.

Hello Elaine,
Thank you for your wonderful food and cooking information!
I'm writing with a question: How can the purple color of eggplant skin be maintained while cooking?
I would appreciate any guidance!
Sincerely,

Eric,
Firstly, avoid using iron cooking tools.
Secondly, cover the surface with enough oil.
That's the most two important points.
