MENUDONGGUAN CHEFS & THEIR WAR STORIES by Stephen O. Roberts

These pages are a portal through another dimension, one not of sight or sound, but of smell and taste—its surfaces gathered on jovial social occasions. Its legends sparked not by plain tales of human sensation. These are the true stories of kitchen masters from foreign lands, the people who serve kings and stars of stage, men that tame zombie snakes and detonate dynamite beef.

www.heredg.com » JUNE 2015 19 Vianei Rodriques BB BRAZILIAN BBQ TANGLA DONGGUAN HOTEL

Most of our chefs trained their skills from a young age, beginning at 17 in Santa Catarina, Brazil, Vianei is no exception. But beyond his mastery of Brzilian BBQ, he stands out in the crowd as Dongguan’s longest running chef. He’s been one of the city’s favorites since 2001. Growing up on a farm in a rural area of southern Brazil, his family raised live- stock and now owns the land that was rented in his youth. Carving meat is sec- ond nature and he now believes he could butcher a side of beef with his eyes closed, but it was his older brother who inspired him in childhood and now challenges him to grow as a chef. Vianei says his brother and he are competi- tive. “He does one side, I do the other. I have to do it better.” However, if you ask, you’ll find the competitiveness stays in the family. “I will say he is better than me and he will say I am better than him.” When there is down time, Vianei uses it in only a few ways. If he’s not in his res- taurant, it’s very likely he can be spotted fishing. “I always go to the same place. The only thing I do very often is fishing, and making BBQ with my staff.” Q&A

20 HERE! DONGGUAN » JUNE 2015 Suresh Kumar Nemkul TAJ MAHAL INDIAN CUISINE CHANG’AN A first look at Suresh would never disclose his age and experience. At a middle-aged 46, his youth- ful face has surprisingly fathered two children, one of them already in her adulthood. Hailing from Katmandu, Nepal, he has now spent 10 of his 26-year-career in China. Originally he arrived in Shenzhen’s Shekou area. He was advised by his father to follow in his footsteps for the career that he saw as secure work, but the Austrian man he calls Dr. John was his true inspiration. The master chef taught him more than how to prepare delicious dishes at a popular Katmandu eatery called The Bakery Café. There, Suresh learned the philosophy of atmosphere and a way of life that can improve a person’s day with respect and care. “He changed my life,” said Suresh. I learned to treat even small children as equals. “I always miss my chef. He will be my chef until I die.” His confidence came when his own cooking was recognized in at a Katmandu food festival. The judges at the event came by and asked him if he was the chef responsible for the flavors at his booth. Suresh didn’t speak English at the time, and had to nervously ask for his boss to translate what the judge wanted from him. To his delight he discovered he was being rewarded the second place prize for his lamb curry. “He gave me one golden spoon and I still keep it at home.”

22 HERE! DONGGUAN » JUNE 2015 Çetin Bildirici NAZAR TURKISH CUISINE DONGCHENG

Turkey is a country of deep culture and customs. It is a place where an- swers come quick and straightforward for the question: “Where do the best chefs live?” Among the three cities famed for the culinary arts, Çetin (Chee-tin) is from Antep. Ask a Turkish friend. They might agree with Çetin, with its spicier dishes, it is the Hunan Province of Turkey—a hot and dry one. Described as a bit adventurous by friends, Çetin himself just arrived to China for the fresh opening of the newest arrival of Dongguan’s culinary map. He’s patriotic in his reasoning for accepting the new position. He says he wants to show people that Turkey is doing “something excellent” with its dinner tables. “I came here because I didn’t want Dongguan people to live and die without eating Turkish food.” What got him into cooking was in part to his mother’s less than keen cooking, and following his father’s more than ample, though not professional, aptitude. He speaks of it as an honorable profession. Maybe that’s why Turkish kitchens are open to the dining room. The four stations, a cook for doughs, meat and hot and cold appetizers, are to be put on parade. Q&A Q ADJUSTING TO CHINA? A I carry a portable fork and knife set because I can’t use chopsticks.

If it is expensive, don’t worry, arrange for me.” He is a really important political man in Italy. I make the same thing from the movie (Once Upon a Time in America), the candles, all my waiters ready for work, but for only two. And the girl, when she arrives, she starts to cry and said, “Oh, I love it. I will marry you.” And he says, “No, wait, wait.”

My friend left to get another friend home safely. I stay here at 3 or 4 o’clock—drunk, no telephone, and I’d arrived just two days. So I go out and get a taxi and asked all, “Speak English?” “No.” “Speak English?” “No.” I go with one taxi. We went down wrong streets. Maybe after 30 minutes I arrived home. I live around the corner.

Homemade Yogurt

Ingredients and supplies: • ¼ cup/60mL unsweetened, plain yogurt • 1 liter milk (skim, low fat or full fat) • Food thermometer • Incubator, like an oven, crockpot or small ice chest Directions: 1. Pour milk into a pot or double-boiler. Stirring constantly so it doesn’t burn, heat milk to 85°C/185°F. Remove from heat and place in a cool water bath. 2. Stirring occasionally so a skin doesn’t form, lower milk temperature to 45°C/110-115°F. Once milk has reached desired temperature, mix about 60 mL of it with yogurt in a separate bowl. Add mixture to the rest of the milk and combine thoroughly. 3. Pour milk mixture into sealed glass jars or a plastic container. Set in incubator (see cooking tips) for 6-12 hours, maintaining a milk temperature of 45°C/110-115°F. Try not to open it for the first 6 hours; it should thicken to yogurt by then, but you may want to leave it longer to make it even thicker. Cooking tips: To incubate yogurt, you can set it in an oven on 45°C/110-115°F, if it goes that low. You can also use an electric slow-cooker filled with water on low heat. The non-electric method is to use an ice chest filled with 32-45°C/90-115°F water, wrapped in towels to seal in heat (you may need to reheat water by pouring out half and filling with more warmed water). If you’re using an EasiYo maker, you can pour boiling water into the bottom half, add your jar and leave it untouched. If making Greek yogurt, use cheese cloth or mesh weave cloth to let whey (clear liquid) drain from finished yogurt for another six hours. This can be done in the refrigerator. Don’t forget to retain a little for your next batch.

Remember how to speak by saying things you shouldn’t.

In Chinese, when we talk about nouns. They should be preceded by a special measure word. There are tons of them and almost every single noun has its own. In order to avoid misuse by non-Native speakers, practice these samples. p.s. Use this grammatical structure: number + MW + n.
