asian buffet
Asian food naturally lends itself to stations. There's usually quite
a bit of chopping involved, though you can prepare just about
everything ahead of time. Guests love getting to put together
their own assortment of ingredients so it's exactly the way
they want. The key to creating Asian-style dinners is to stock
your pantry with a few Asian staples such as fish sauce, sweet
red chili sauce, hoisin, mirin, dry chilis, and, of course, soy sauce.
When entertaining, set yourself up for success and have all
the ingredients for each dish pre-measured on a separate tray.
Stir fry dishes cook very quickly and are best served
immediately. Asian meals are usually healthy, which makes
them even more enjoyable to eat, and the food is satisfying
without being too heavy.
