1) Tell us what you do at School of Wok/ Curious Crab!
Curious Crab Productions is a spin off video production business that we have just recently launched, where our team have first-hand experience in using video to bring our food brand alive. We now offer these services to other food and travel companies who are looking for specialist video content to support their brand stories.
2) What do you always have in your pantry for knocking up a quick meal?
Different types of soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, chilli pastes, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, rice wine, mirin, dried shiitake mushrooms and of course miso – but I tend to keep that in the fridge!

“…I wanted to add a natural base of savoury flavour to my bolognese, so
I added a couple of tablespoons of miso in whilst I was searing the mince.
My three year old loved it…”

3) Do you have a favourite secret ingredient?
4) Do you use miso in your cooking? If so, how do you use it?
5) Has your cooking changed during lockdown? What are you making that’s different?

Absolutely love all the contents!! Everything is so informative @annamomo92
I’d love to get better at Asian cooking – I think Asian food has some of the best flavours in the world.
I have started using miso tasty paste in so many dishes (not just Asian food) to give them more flavour 🙂
Jeremy pang and school of woks recipies are amazing, we always make his recipies before ordering a takeaway.
Fingers crossed!
Love all these ingredients, and Miso is one of my favourite flavours, such a versatile ingredient. I’ve never thought of making my own noodles, that would be interesting! And those bao buns look so good!
Very informative content would love the opportunity to experience the school of wok
