    Welcome to the show. This episode introduces Shandong (Lu) cuisine, a northern Chinese style known for confident, savory flavors drawn from the sea and the land.

    Expect scallion-forward dishes, seafood prepared to highlight natural taste, clear and flavorful broths, and skill-driven techniques like crisp frying, quick stir-frying, and braising.
