Asia's Appetizing Adventures - Taiwan Part 1: A Visit to a Hakka Family

Culinary specialist Kentetsu Koh travels across Asia in search of great home cooking and person-to-person encounters. When Kentetsu explores Taipei, he comes across a fragrant cup of tea. This leads him to a tea farm in an area called Beipu. At the home of a Hakka family, he's treated to a tea called Oriental Beauty. It is grown in a way that allows bugs to sweeten it up by chewing on the leaves. Kentetsu also tries some authentic Hakka dishes made from preserved ingredients such as mustard greens that have been fermented more than 3 months and dried white radish that's been aged 5 years. Join him as he experiences a diversity of tastes and lifestyles.
