advertisement

As Beijing’s schools continue to exist in a state of educational limbo, parents have turned to edu-taining their kids with all sorts of daily activities at home. One of the best (and most practical) is creating masterpieces together in the kitchen. It’s where kids can explore their creativity, learn more about where their food comes from, and enjoy some hands-on action.

The second challenge in The Hutong Quarantine Cook-Off starts today with a classic Sichuan favorite: Sichuan Dish Fragrant Spicy Pot, malaxiangguo.
