I invite you to think about the questions you ask, the space you create and the norms you enforce when you ask about topics that are seemingly unrelated to culture or race. There’s often much hidden underneath "neutral" topics that pull for certain answers like "hahaha al dente pasta is the ‘right’ answer" and "wow, I’ve never shared this but I miss my grandmother’s soggy noodles sometimes".

When you ask the question of what "good food" can be, you might get different answers. You might get the foodie answer, getting into the details of what extracts the most flavour in the best combinations. Or you might get an answer that evokes nostalgia and history that differs from the dominant narrative of how food "should" be cooked.

Finally, I find humour in the name of these noodles, called jook sing meen. This literally translates to bamboo noodles. Incidentally, Chinese folks living overseas are often rudely labelled as jook sing (bamboo).

This kind of frugality and stretching the dollar on ingredients that many don’t eat (e.g., pork bone soup, using corn "whiskers" to sweeten soups, etc.) wouldn’t make it into fancy Chinese cookbooks but is an important part of contributing to the recognizable taste of home.

It’s also truly amazing how often gluten shows up in Cantonese cuisine, particularly in the midst of popular gluten-free trends. From relying on gluten to be the basis of desired bouncy textures in noodles to adding gluten balls - yes, balls of fried pure gluten - to our hot pots, so much of my food traditions involved adding, not removing, gluten from our diets.

A little thought that has been running around in my head for a long time was that the Waynes were Chinese (Han probably). They changed their surname to Wayne and picked up a butler for extra White Upper Class Respectability. Bruce picking a bat as his symbol came from him going back to China to reconnect with his kin there after his parents died, and learning that the bat is a symbol of good luck. This version also had red accents on his costume (maybe even just lining his whole cape) for more luck and intimidation.

We already have a Chinese Batman! And he's perfect,,,

(raises a Bat signal to the Bear pinup community) please discover him stop being cowards and render him with your power your splendor your GIFTS-

Haha but for real, it's a pretty popular fanon to re-imagine Bruce as some sort of east asian decent. And he's even imagined that way in the graphic novels now (I haven't read it but I remember being excited over the news)! I enjoy the reasoning that it helps tie in his martial arts knowledge, and therefore makes Bruce someone of crazy rich asian descent haha. And naturally I'm a huge fan of the Batman of Shanghai short!
