Although Taiwanese food is steadily growing in popularity, its unique ingredients and more uncommon dishes are often lost in translation. “Jason’s Table: Masterful Dishes,” available September 18, 2023 for free on TaiwanPlus, sets out to explore its nuances by exhibiting Taiwanese cuisine through modern reinterpretation.
Hosted by Jason Wang, Season 8 runner-up of MasterChef, “Jason’s Table” is one of the first global programs dedicated specifically to Taiwanese cuisine.
When discussing his inspiration for the show, Wang shared his belief that “food forges a connection between our past and present, awakening the senses that shape who we are.”
For Wang, Taiwanese food melds his cultural background with his American upbringing, and hopes the show will “entertain foodies everywhere and help viewers taste, as much as possible, the essences of Taiwanese cuisine.”
“Jason’s Table” will be available on TaiwanPlus’s website, app, TV channel and YouTube channel.
