She misses that wok hei flavor more than anything.
Wok hei, “the breath of the wok,” is one of the most rare and elusive flavors on Earth.
As she told me: “Wok hei is so difficult to find in America.
She was born in Guangzhou, China, and moved to Hong Kong as a teenager in the late 1960s.
I don’t even like eating fried food that much, but it’s very Hong Kong style,” my mom told me.
