Eight Lucky Dishes for Chinese New Year
Long Beans: Martha
Eating vegetables on the new year, whether in the form of traditional dish jai or just individually, is thought to cleanse the body and give an abundance of good luck. Long beans are traditionally eaten on the holiday, and Fort Greene’s Martha serves up a particularly delicious version, full of spicy Thai bird chiles, a kick of horseradish, peanuts and a smoky cumin finish.
