More on Chef Clarice Lam:

Chef Clarice was the opening pastry chef for Kimika, the popular Italian-Japanese restaurant in Nolita, and also worked at Thomas Keller’s Bouchon Bakery and Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Spice Market. She was the executive chef at The Chocolate Room in Brooklyn and has appeared on multiple TV shows including Beat Bobby Flay and most recently Best Baker in America where she finished as a semifinalist.

Her new cookbook, Breaking Bao, features 88 inventive recipes that highlight popular Asian ingredients. Chef Clarice makes the unfamiliar, familiar, bringing flavors from around the world to readers in a whimsical and creative way. Breaking Bao is divided into three chapters, with the largest solely dedicated to Bao (which in Chinese can mean bun and also the act of wrapping something). Chef Clarice’s playful Bao chapter sets the scene for the remainder of the book, which dives into Cakes & Desserts, and Snacks - an ode to the munchies she tasted during her worldly travels.
