Chiu Chow cuisine is particularly well known for it's seafood and vegetarian dishes and is regarded as being healthy as it's use of flavoring is much less heavy-handed than most other Chinese cuisines. Oil is not often used in large quantities and there is a relatively heavy emphasis on poaching, steaming and braising.

Most dishes rely on the freshness and quality of the ingredients for taste rather than additives.

At Mask of China, we take great pride in NOT using MSG in any of our dishes.
