Ever since Mr. Tu moved to an apartment across the street from a Chinese market, his diet has changed significantly. He’s cooking more Cantonese-style dishes using cornstarch, seafood and rice, but he’s still working on deepening the flavors in his cooking, including replacing his go-to bottle of sriracha with more complex spices and chiles.Ever since Mr. Tu moved to an apartment across the street from a Chinese market, his diet has changed significantly.
