Tips for an Oriental style Christmas
Make an Oriental inspired flavoured butter to place under the skin of your turkey using chopped lemongrass, coriander, garlic, chilli and spring onion and glaze the skin with Blue Dragon Dark Soy sauce to make it crispy. Also place 2 halves of a lime in the cavity for extra aromatic flavour.
Why not use the traditional accompanying Christmas vegetables, but cook them in a completely different way? Finely shred your carrots and sprouts, and then stir fry over a high heat adding green beans and mange tout and baby sweetcorn. Finally add a glug of sweet chilli sauce and a dash of soy sauce and serve with your Oriental flavoured Turkey.
Why not treat your guests to champagne and Oriental nibbles - try making prawn toast, Chinese spring and Vietnamese summer rolls and chicken and beef satay...

Celebrate Chinese New Year at home with Blue Dragon products
This year, Chinese New Year will be on 26th January. It is the year of the Ox. Chinese New Year is the most important date in the Chinese calendar and people take time from work to celebrate and get together with their family.
With a comprehensive range of Chinese products, from noodles to soy sauce, Blue Dragon provides everything you need to create your own Chinese New Year feast at home.
Different communities within China have different ways of celebrating Chinese New year.
The date of Chinese New Year depends on the Chinese Calendar which is guided by the Lunar months. Chinese New Year is also known as the Spring festival, and is celebrated for 15 days. Throughout the festival, different days have specific activities, for example, the Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day when the moon is full. The lanterns have riddles attached to them and people eat round dumplings called Yuan Xiao which are made of glutinous rice and red bean paste. The round shape of the sweets is important, it represents union and it is the first time of the year that the moon is round.
The colour red is important during the Spring festival, as it is thought to drive away bad luck.
