Women were once deemed too weak to work in Chinese restaurant kitchens


Archan Chan recalls her first experience working in a Chinese restaurant, more than 14 years ago.To get more news about traditional chinese women, you can visit shine news official website.

Employed as an apprentice chef, she was one of just two women in the kitchen - the other's sole job was to beat eggs."She was unbelievably fast at beating eggs. I guess for a woman to survive in a traditional Chinese kitchen back then, you had to be the best in something," says Chan.

Today, Chan helms the kitchen of Ho Lee Fook, one of Hong Kong's most popular restaurants.

After spending more than a decade working in fine dining restaurants and gastro-bars in Australia and Singapore, Chan is one of the few female chefs to rise to top of a high-end Cantonese restaurant.An impressive feat, given how incredibly challenging it has been for women to soar in high-profile Chinese kitchens.

Why are there so few females willing to don the chef's apron? The physically demanding kitchen tools and setup, the fierce fire of the wok and a male-centric culture are just a few of the deterrents, with women once told they lack the strength to handle such a grueling industry.Female chefs have long been a minority in professional kitchens around the world. But the situation is even bleaker in Chinese kitchens.

In traditional Chinese kitchens, where all sorts of regional cuisines are served, chefs are generally divided into two groups: there are those who man the stove station, preparing wok and stir-fry dishes; and then there's the pastry station, where the dim sum and noodles are made.

There's no denying the work is physically demanding - an empty wok weighs about 2.2 kilograms - but there are other factors at play.In the past, many Chinese kitchens focused on mentor-protégé relationships, meaning masters would recruit apprentices and pass their skills to them. Few chefs would risk recruiting a female trainee into that harsh environment.

Given all of these barriers, not many women would even consider this male-dominated industry as an attractive career path.

"Until about a decade or so ago, the only women I met working in Chinese kitchens were kitchen hands, who clean and do some basic preparations, or dim sum cart pushers," says Chun Hung Chan, who has been a chef for the last 46 years and an instructor at Hong Kong's Chinese Culinary Institute for 28 years.

In an ideal world, a story like this one, or the annual awards that highlight the "best female chefs," wouldn't be necessary. Women would simply thrive alongside everyone else in the kitchen, and be treated with the same level of respect.

Thankfully there are signs of a shift in mindset - the number of female Chinese chefs de cuisine has been rising in recent years.Among them is Zeng Huai Jun, the executive chef of Song, a one-Michelin-star Sichuanese restaurant, in Guangzhou.

An ancient Chinese mind-body exercise

 

Walk into the room where the Tai Chi class is conducted at the Grand Forks Senior Center and you immediately feel a sense of peace, quiet and calm. The music is soft and soothing.To get more news about ancient chinese bedroom, you can visit shine news official website.

At the front of the room, Bill Vasicek talks his students through and demonstrates the flow of each movement in the ancient mind/body exercise, sometimes referred to as "moving meditation," that originated in China.

Vasicek leads beginning and intermediate Tai Chi classes, which meet Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. No fee is charged and Senior Center membership is not required.

Those who attend the sessions "enjoy it," Vasicek said, noting that he'd like to have more students. "It is exercise, but it's not strenuous exercise."

The style of Tai Chi that he teaches is helpful for those coping with arthritis and fall prevention, said Vasicek, who is trained and certified to teach it. "The movement is modified so that it's not causing harm if a person has arthritis.Linda Kohoutek of Grand Forks, who's been taking the class for about two years, can attest to that. The exercise is good for attaining "better balance," she said. "And it's stress-relieving too."

Having a good sense of balance is crucial in preventing falls and injury, especially for older people, the CDC has confirmed.

Vasicek, who retired as community safety coordinator for Altru Health System, said that hospital statistics revealed that "older adults who fell would end up in the hospital or dying from their injuries. It was alarming."

In the hospital's emergency room, "falls were always at the top of the list during the 17 years I was (at Altru), and it was all ages."

Recently, Joyce Halverson of Grand Forks noticed that when getting out of bed in the morning, she wasn't as stable as she used to be, she said. "I can't leap out of bed; I feel I needed more stability."

She was invited by a friend, Gail Hove, a regular attendee who joined the class at the strong recommendation of her health care provider.

Halverson, who's been attending the exercise class for about four months, has found that it's helped her with balance, she said. "It's very relaxing, too.Vasicek is certified to teach the Sun style of Tai Chi, which is characterized by "slow, steady, continuous movement," he said. "It's a little easier (style of Tai Chi) and it's easier to do."

Vasicek took training through an online "Tai Chi for Health" program, offered by Dr. Paul Lam, a physician from China who lives in Australia, he said. "All my training was virtual, working with a master trainer."

"We're taught to modify movements to make it comfortable for (participants)," he said. "We do exercises within their comfort zones. There should be no pain."

Vasicek has been conducting Tai Chi classes at the Senior Center for about two years.

The Sun style of Tai Chi incorporates gentle resistance; participants are guided through hand and arm movements while imagining they're pushing water, he said. Even while imagining it, they're strengthening the arm muscles.

Germany blocks Chinese-owned firm's chip factory deal


The German government on Wednesday blocked the sale of a chip factory to a Swedish subsidiary of a Chinese company, a decision that comes as Berlin grapples with its future approach to Beijing.To get more china technology news, you can visit shine news official website.

The move by the Cabinet follows a recent compromise over a Chinese shipping firm's investment in a German container terminal and a visit to Beijing last week by Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

The government's red light was anticipated after German company Elmos said this week that it had been informed the 85 million-euro (dollar) sale of its chip factory in Dortmund to Silex Microsystems AB of Sweden would likely be prohibited. Silex is owned by Sai Microelectronics of China, according to German media.

Although the deal announced in December wasn't very significant financially and the technology involved apparently wasn't new, it raised concerns over the wisdom of putting German IT production capacity in Chinese hands.German Economy Minister Robert Habeck said the government also blocked a second planned investment by an investor from outside the European Union, but he wouldn't give details because it is still subject to the business confidentiality of the company involved.

In stopping both deals, Habeck said security in Germany must be protected and "there is a particular need to protect critical production areas."What is important is the political message that we are an open market economy, that foreign investments - including from countries outside the (European) Union - are wanted and welcome here, but an open market economy is not a naive market economy," he told reporters.

Western governments are increasingly wary about China's technology ambitions and assertive foreign policy. The United States and other governments have tightened controls on access to processor chips and other technology.

Elmos said it and Silex regretted the government's decision and that the transfer of new technology from Sweden and investments at the Dortmund site "would have strengthened semiconductor production in Germany."
The company said it would analyze the decision "with regard to whether there is a material violation of the parties' rights, and decide whether to take legal action."Scholz's nearly year-old government has signaled a departure from predecessor Angela Merkel's firmly trade-first approach to China. It plans to draw up a "comprehensive China strategy."

That is still pending. But Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and others have made clear that Germany wants to avoid repeating mistakes it made with Russia, which used to supply more than half of the country's natural gas and now supplies none.

However, a decision last month pointed to unresolved questions about the extent to which Chinese companies should be allowed to invest in Europe's biggest economy.

Officials argued over whether to allow China's COSCO to take a 35% stake in a container terminal at the Hamburg port.

Members of two junior parties in the governing coalition opposed that deal, while Scholz, a former Hamburg mayor, downplayed its significance. The Cabinet eventually cleared COSCO to take a stake below 25%. Above that level, an investor can block a company's decisions.
