Exploring China: A Culinary Adventure. BBC2: 8.00pm
In the second episode of Ken Hom and Ching-He Huang culinary trek, they explore the effects of sweeping modernisation in China's fastest growing city, Chengdu. It is the capital of Sichuan province, where the locals cling on to their identity through food. Here, in one of the culinary capitals of the country, they explore the complex and almost addictive spices that set Sichuan food apart and make it the most memorable of all Chinese cuisines. And in a desire to get under the skin of the city, they explore the back streets in search of the most authentic dishes and traditional snacks. Hopefully leading Ken to improve the spring rolls he sells to Tesco.
