What did you know about ho- mosexuality before your son told you he was gay? I found out that this group of people existed just a few months before my son came out. I was planning a column for my magazine and discovered Fang Gang's Homosexuality in China, and Li Yinhe's Homosexuality: a Subculture. I started to pity these people a lot and wanted to help them, but when I looked around my friends and acquaintances, no one seemed to be from this group.

The thing is, David Beckham is a polarizing figure, in the sense that he is simultaneously admira- ble and suspicious. Take his role at Paris Saint-Germain, for exam- ple. He’s donating his sizeable salary to charity, which generates awesome publicity, but in the background he’s earning bucket loads of cash from merchandise sales, and the fee for Saint David to endorse your product has just trebled. Yet he’s still giving mil- lions of dollars to charity, and how many of us can say that?

April 2013 // GZ // www.thatsmags.com 55 EAT / DRINK HOME COOKING Green Papaya Salad Spicy Spring Starter Text by Juliette Ding, Photos by Li Zhengde

Ingredients: he Thai New Year Songkran falls in the middle of April this year. Thai T chef Mrs. Naen-udon Pancharat from The Terrace shared with us the recipe for a common light Thai dish, Som Tum. This easy to make salad is distinctly Thai -- aromatic, sweet, sour and spicy. Green Papaya Salad is a suitable starter for the coming spring season and Thai New Year.

1 green papaya, shredded 1 long green beans, cut into 3cm pieces 1 tomato and 3 cherry tomatoes, cut into thin wedges 1 cup of lime juice 1 red chilli, sliced with the seeds removed 1 tablespoon of coconut sugar 1/2 cup roasted peanuts 1/2 clove garlic Optional: dried shrimp, fish sauce Lettuces for decoration and wrapping Preparation: 1. Put the red chilli and garlic in the mortar and grind them with a pestle until you can smell the spices. Then add the tomatoes and half of the peanuts and gradually crush them together.

2. In a separate bowl mix the shrimp, fish sauce, coconut sugar and lime juice and crush them until the coconut sugar is well combined with the mixture. Then pour the mixture into How to prepare: the mortar. 3. Add the long beans and shredded papaya and mix well.

4. Serve with lettuce and with the rest of the peanuts.

Tips:

For vegetarians, omit the shrimp and substitute the fish sauce with soy sauce. Regular sugar syrup can be used for coconut sugar and lemon can be used instead of lime.

Som tum is a very flexible dish that you can make according to your individual preferences, so feel free to balance the use of fish sauce, lime juice, coconut sugar, red chilli, garlic by yourself. But be sure to use a green papaya.

Seventy-five shots in and the tables had turned. From there, the transformation from skeptic to evangelist wasn’t quite such an uphill battle. Traveling on the road for five weeks from region to region, Sandhaus often found himself eating and drinking alone. He began using his quest as a way to bridge the culture gap.

He started to find himself using adjectives like “smooth,” “fruity” and “enjoyable.” He began to unwrap the complicated distilling process, which centers on each company’s “qu” – a big brick of grain (usually wheat) with micro- organisms which form the base of a baijiu flavor. Each individual recipe is jealously guarded. Of all the distillation plants Sandhaus has been to, only one has ever shown him a piece of qu.

A trip to the famed fac- tory in proved the pin- nacle experience. “I toured with this group that included Maotai business partners and we had Baijiu is both a rite erek Sandhaus decided to just had this ridiculous baijiu of passage and the find the answer.

60 April 2013 // GZ // www.thatsmags.com shot! shot! shot! shot! The five different baijius of china

Strong aroma, nongxiang 浓香

“This one is considered by baijiu connoisseurs as the finest,” says Sandhaus. “But it’s made in Chengdu, so it’s also pos- sible I’m biased.” Aside from Maotai (below), this category is where you’ll find the most expensive brands on offer. Saundhaus recommends these for baijiu beginners, as they have a cleaner flavor and pair well with spicy food. If you go for the cheaper version, Sandhaus stands by the flavors, but warns it burns, both going down… and going out. Try it: Shuijingfang 水井坊 (rmB900), Jiannanchun 剑南春 (rmB400), luzhou laojiao 泸州老窖 (rmB15)

Sauce aroma, jiangxiang 酱香

Distilled mostly in Southern Sichuan and Guizhou, the “sauce” refers to a soy sauce fragrance, though the drink is not actually made with any soy. Fermented up to eight times (compared to the usual one to two), it tends to be more acidic and sour, with a very strong flavor that can be off-putting. To go all out, try the ridiculously expensive and world-famous Moutai, which Sandhaus describes as mellow and tart. More pocket friendly, Maotai Zhen (a different company) also does the trick. Try it: feitian 飞天 by 贵州茅台 (rmB2,000), laimao 赖茅 by maotai zhen 茅台镇 (rmB80)

Light aroma, qingxiang 清香

This is the drink of Northern China, and the other baijiu that Sandhaus says is good for starters. There are sev- eral subdivisions within the light aroma category, but the most notorious is probably . “Erguotou is considered the best because it’s the baijiu of the people,” says Sandhaus. “Many disagree, but for what it costs, it’s pretty good, especially the Red Star.” Try it: laobai fenjiu 老白汾酒 by Xinghuacun fenjiu 杏花村汾酒 (rmB150), Jiuyuan 酒源 by ruyang Du Kang 汝阳杜康 (rmB90)

Rice aroma, mixiang 迷香

Primarily made in Southeast China – with the most famous based in Guilin and Guangdong – out of the four major categories, Sandhaus says that this one is the most distinctive. The secret ingredient is mashed steamed rice mixed with qu also made of rice, instead of the usual wheat. The mixture is then moved to a bigger jar with more water, rice (instead of sor- ghum) and qu. Regular baijiu combines both these processes into one. Sandhaus says the two-step process leads to a very mellow drink that doesn’t pack the typical baijiu punch. It can be harder to find outside its production areas though. Try it: lao Guilin 老桂林 by Guilin Sanhua 桂林三花 (rmB150), Guilin Sanhua Jiu 桂林三花酒 (rmB30)

Mixed aroma, jianxiang 兼香

Mixed aroma is essentially a blend in which you have two or more different types of baijiu mixed together, much like blended whiskey in the West. This allows mixed aromas to be made all over China. The most famous is from – Xifeng Jiu – which makes all kinds of mixes. They’ve even got one that packs all four of the different types of baijiu into one tiny bottle. More bang for your buck.

Derby Clash Follows Mixed March By Matt Horn

This month sees the first Chinese Super League Guangzhou derby of the season after the two clubs experienced vastly contrasting starts to their campaigns which kicked off last month. Champions Evergrande opened the defense of their title in fine style, scoring eight goals in claiming two wins. New Brazilian signing Elkeson has been making the headlines with five goals in his first two games, including a hat trick in the win over last season’s runners-up Jiangsu Sainty. Across the city, a goal in each game for Nigerian striker Yakubu was not enough to prevent them losing both games. But R&F will be confident ahead of their home clash with the champions on April 27 having been the only team to do the double over the champions last season. Although Evergrande did lose to Jiangsu in the China Super Cup, things are looking much better in the Asian Champions League. They have taken four points from their opening two games, beating Urawa Red Diamonds and then drawing in Korea at Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors. They will complete the group stages of the Champions’ League on May 1 against the Korean side.
