Ways of cooking
Xiao long bao(soup dumplings), those amazing constructions of delicate dumpling wrappers, encasing hot, tasty soup and sweet, fresh meat, are my favorite Chinese street food. The dumplings arrive steaming and dangerously hot. To eat one, you have to decide whether to bite a small hole in it first, releasing the stream and risking a spill (溢出), or to put the whole dumpling in your mouth, letting the hot soup explode on your tongue.
The best Xiao long bao have a fine skin, allowing them to be lifted out of the steamer basket without tearing or spilling any of their contents. The meat should be fresh with a touch of sweetness and the soup hot, clear and delicious.

Culture behind food
Sichuan hotpot, a typical dish of Sichuan cuisine, enjoys popularity all over China in spite of its spicy flavor. Typical hotpot dishes include sliced meat, leafy greens, mushrooms, wontons, egg dumplings, tofu and seafood. There are various kinds of Sichuan hotpots to cater to different preferences: sweet, salty, or sour flavors all are available. If you want to challenge your taste buds, Sichuan hot pot is highly recommended.

Writing sample:
Dear Eric,
Knowing that you frequently order takeaway food online, I’m concerned about it and writing to recommend a simple dish to you .
Wrapped in plastic bags and consisting of much processed food, eating takeaway food does result in environmental problems and poor health. When it comes to healthy eating, I recommend Hot Dry Noodles which is a representative of Wuhan dishes. Not only are the noodles chewy and tasty, but also it is rich in nutrition. To make such a simple and mouthwatering dish, you just need to add half-cooked noodles into boiling water, keep cooking for 3second-1minute and drain it followed by adding ingredients such as salt, sesame oil, sauces and green onion.
I sincerely hope you can make some adjustments to your habit of eating takeaway food and try making your own nutritious meal. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
