I’m fond of my little Joyce Chen stir-fry pan (Peking Pan). It is a semi-wok with a small flat bottom, designed for horrible electric burners. Of course if I had a gas stove I’d have a proper wok. I have a larger wok,...

Not ravs, but wonton. When I was a kid (also mid-60s) it was not uncommon for Boston Chinatown restaurants such as House of Roy to list “Wonton (kreplach) soup” on their menus. The folklore has it that Joyce Chen...

Thanks to Joyce Chen, Boston had a plethora of Polynesian rests. in the 50’s. A lot of these places are throwbacks to this era in every sense of the word. In one place, near Newton Centre, you can eat under a fake thatched...

spend some money on a wok that can take the heat and save the Joyce Chen for the light duty work. Heck, it was probably less than $20 — why risk it?

. That knife and my Joyce Chen Chinese Cooking Knife (the classic rectangular Chinese cooking knife) are just about the only knives I use. I’ve had the Joyce Chen knife for 20 years, and it never gets put away. You can get...

Any recommendations? There are vertical and horizontal ones by Joyce Chen and at Target. http://www.nextag.com/spiral-slicer/search-html They run $ 35-40. Are they any good? What are the pros and cons? Any other brand...

I’m happy with my little Joyce Chen flat-bottomed wok, but it is only big enough to stir-fry for one or two people – I have a much larger one from Chinatown, but use the little one more. Alas I have an electric stove,...

Anyone out there remember Joyce Chen? She had (has?) what was a very good restaurant in Cambridge, Ma. I’m pretty sure it was Cambridge. It’s been many years since I was last there. BUT her cookbook is still one of my...
