About the Author

Maggie Zhu started her website, Omnivore's Cookbook, in 2013. Born and raised in Beijing, she moved to Austin, Texas, in 2015. Now she's a full-time New York-based blogger, writer, recipe developer, and photographer. Having grown up with a mother who always did the cooking, Maggie's culinary adventure started in 2007, when she moved to Japan and needed to cook to survive. Learning and sharing Chinese food has become a way for her to connect with her roots and the rest of the world. Her mission is to help more people get to know real Chinese food and expose less-known regional cuisines, such as Northern and Xinjiang food, to a broader audience. More importantly, she wants to show you how easy it is to cook with wholesome ingredients to create delicious dishes that are like the ones served in Chinese restaurants.
