About the content of this blog
I live in China now and grew up in Sichuan province. During my early childhood; I had two great cooks around: my mother and her mother. Growing up, I traveled around China and I enjoyed the yummy dishes from many different cuisines. Thus I write this blog, to introduce my favorite dishes and share everyone with the happiness of cooking for those you love. I will focus on Sichuan cuisine and may introduce other Chinese cuisines too. I spend a long time in exploring Sichuan cuisine, Shanxi cuisine, and Cantonese cuisine including 4 years at university.
I want to use this experience to introduce the world to traditional authentic Chinese food. Although I enjoy many different cuisines, Sichuan dishes are the ones I love serving my family the most – and hope you will experience the joy of cooking them for your loved ones, too. That's the reason why I name my small blog China Sichuan Food.

Hi Elaine,
I was fortunate to be able to do an extended visit to China in 2018, and I absolutely loved Sichuan (several days in Chengdu). Your site is the first place I come for inspiration and recipes when I yearn for authentic Sichuan (and other) food from China. Thank you so much for doing this!

Hey Elaine,
I found your website while browsing for a Chinese Scallion Pancakes recipe and China Sichuan Food came up. I must say, I hope we're doing great in SEO as much as you guys are, haha! Huge respect for your accomplishments.
We work in the same space (food industry) and recently we've been working on improving our marketing efforts. We've been thinking about doing something like affiliate marketing, podcast guesting, or content collaboration.
I think maybe there's a potential for us working together in the near future?
Thank you for your reply in advance and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards,

Elaine, do you have a recipe for fried corn kernels? I remember having this dish in Chengdu. It was battered corn kernels quickly fried with some salt and sugar and was delicious. Do you know what it is called? Thank you!

I found your website looking for a recipe for regan mian. I spent several weeks in Wuhan in 2019, leaving in late October, just before leaving might have been a challenge! Your recipe tastes exactly like I remember regan mian from a little place that only had one thing they sold--regan mian. T
