Li Mingzhe leads the dim sum kitchen at Lotus Court. Every morning, the team folds dumplings and rolls by hand.
Li keeps to traditional methods while looking for new ingredients that suit the delicate scale of dim sum.
Collaboration with Gyokinnshou
Li's collaboration with Gyokinnshou is built around Mullet Roe marinated in Sesame Oil. Its strong sesame aroma is a natural match for Chinese cooking.
The Huazhi mullet roe roll wraps tender cuttlefish paste with a slice of marinated roe, steamed and finished with a few drops of the sesame oil.
"In dim sum, one small bite should hold a whole story."
