How to Prepare for the Year of the Ox

To help you prepare for the Year of the Ox, we are Introducing our BACGG virtual flip-book on “How to Prepare for the Year of the Ox.”  This virtual flip book is only a highlight and we invite you to do more research on your own. Start by talking to your family to gather any forgotten personal family New Year traditions. 

We are also collecting family recipes to include into our BACGG flip-cookbook. Please email them to bacgg.jeannie@gmail.com by February 27, 2021. 

This 1 hour video features Rosemary Gong, author of Good Luck Life, sharing the traditions of Chinese New Year. Plus we have five chefs demonstrating how to prepare traditional Chinese New Year dishes: jai, dumplings, steamed fish, white cut chicken, and rice cake.

  1. Great idea to collect favorite and traditional family recipes before they are forgotten.

    If you are looking for a delightful cookbook of Cantonese dim sum, check out “Nom Wah Cookbook: Recipes and Stories,” written by Wilson Tang (Ecco and HarperCollins, 2020). Here is a recipe from his book, https://www.mocanyc.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MOCA_COOKS_Pan_Fried_Noodles_Recipe_and_Techniques.pdf
    Read up more about the 100 year old restaurant, Nom Wah Tea Parlor, in NYC Chinatown, with the following link, https://nomwah.com/dim-sum/ .
    For a more social and historical perspective, read “American Chinese Restaurants:
    Society, Culture and Consumption,” Edited By Jenny Banh and Haiming Liu (Routledge, 2019).

    • Glad you enjoyed the recipes in our BACGG Cookbook. We will be adding more recipes towards the end of February, so check back
      again. At this point we are requesting family recipes.

      I am familiar with Nom Wah Tea Parlor. Thank you for sharing.
