Testimonials from Wok Stars

September 22, 2022 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

Every time we cook “The Eleanor Hoh Wok Star System” ( I just named it ) we are at awe how well it works. It is not just the Cast Iron Wok or Butane Stove, it is the entire System that you have so thoughtfully put together. We see years of training and experience in each thoughtful element. You have added a wonderful new element to our routine cooking and dining as well as a bump to our many dinner parties. Bill & Judy

Bill excited with his new style of cooking!

World Wok Cuisine

“Thank You Eleanor for giving me the simplest, most impactful way to make flavorful memories! I give you Indian, Italian, Chino Latino and any cuisine you can fathom…it’s always Wok Cooking! This handy dandy cast iron wok has its own suitcase and I never leave home without it! Camping, beach, hiking or let me cook for you at your house! It is the single most important pan for cooking for me! “ Henri

Henri cooks dishes from all over the world in his wok!

Creative, Fun and Healthy Family Gift

“Mark opened his Christmas gift this morning and loved it. Thanks so much for this creative, fun and healthy gift for our family. We made our first meal tonight (turkey lettuce wraps and extra veggies), our girls were eager to help. The meal was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Eleanor (9) cooked the veggies and Annabel (7) cooked the turkey.” Heather & Mark

Annabel, Mark and Eleanor, fun time cooking dinner together as a family!

Put FUN back into Cooking! 

“You’ve made cooking fun again. Wok so much, can’t tell you how much you have changed my eating habits and inspired so much enjoyment for cooking. 🙂 The best part about your no-recipe technique is the technique is so easy to learn and build on without needing any cooking experience at all. I’ve gotten great results with every kind of meat and every kind of vegetable.” Dr. Eric Runyon

Dr. Eric Runyon finds cooking relaxing!

Chinese New Year Festive Table Setting

January 23, 2012 By Eleanor Hoh 1 Comment

For Year of the Dragon, I wanted to show you easy ways to dress up your table so you can enjoy a Simple Chinese New Year Dinner At Home.
Use lots of “red” which symbolizes good luck and anything you can find that has Dragon or Asian theme on it! This includes red packets with money in it to give to unmarried folks or kids.  I put little buddhas in red packets to give to Wok Stars or friends!  Tangerines, clementines, oranges represent good luck and prosperity. Give them as gifts to friends. The gold and red character paper is what Buddhists burn in their prayer ceremonies and can be bought at an Asian market.

This is my favorite Dragon plate and red mat I use for styling my dishes!

If you have access to an Asian store, buy those table mat and chopstick, napkin sets!  They’re all color coordinated and ready to go. I was given this set as a Chinese New Year gift by a chiropractor, who is also a  speaker and all round wonderful mom of Sophie and Wok Star, Dr. Maritza Paz.
Maritza’s lovely table mat & chopstick napkin came in very handy when I went on NBC Miami yesterday to show how to set an easy Chinese New Year festive table setting and cook up a Sizzling Shrimp dish!  More about the show here. Don’t forget to add some orchids if you can get them or any bright colored flowers would also be a wonderful addition.

If you can’t get to an Asian store, throw a Chinese New Year party (you have 2 weeks to do this in!), you’ll end up with nice gifts from friends!  That’s how I scored this beautiful handbag and a Monkey painting with lots of Chinese calligraphy.  It’s created by a dear friend, Marguerite Gil who’s a French ceramic artist, writer and radio show host!
Many Wok Stars who have my Dragon themed wok mitt set can use their mitts as a display when you’re not using them for cooking!
Here are a few of my table settings using ‘Dragon’ dishes I thought you might enjoy!

I didn’t realize how many Dragon dishes I had till I pulled things out for this post.
Well, have fun with your table setting…
Here’s one more Chinese New Year post with decorating ideas!
