Cooking up Culture: Dishing on Dumplings!
By
Mary Gorges, Talent Brand Content Manager, Marvell
The Asian population at Marvell is diverse and growing, bringing a rich mix of culture and heritage to our company. This May, we had the chance to celebrate their unique traditions and achievements during Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month.
Marvell’s Lu Zhang and Bofan Ren, both in HR, showed off their cooking skills in a video demo, teaching colleague Rhaelen Passamani how to make dumplings. “Sharing your passion this way is a great way to promote culture and culture is a very important aspect of work – it helps people feel they belong. Plus, cooking is something that makes me feel relaxed,” says Lu.
Bofan adds, “Making dumplings is a team effort. Someone makes the dough, someone makes the filling, and so on. It’s a great way for families and friends to chat and catch up.”
Celebrating AAPI Heritage Month at Marvell is all about highlighting our cultural diversity and strengthening our connections through shared experiences and stories. As we learn from each other, we make our workplace more inclusive and vibrant.
In the video, Lu and Bofan share their dumpling-making know-how with the rest of us.
Both Lu and Bofan are self-described foodies, and Lu shares pictures of her dishes on Marvell’s HR Slack channel, including these Asian dishes.
Lu and Bofan say dumplings are a signature dish in Asia, especially during the Lunar New Year, the biggest festival in many Asian countries, and making dumplings is a fun and important tradition.
They explain that the different fillings – like meat and veggies – can be playful. Lu says, “My parents would put coins in a few dumplings, and the lucky person who found one would have good fortune for the entire year. They also put candy in some for the kids.”
She adds, “This was the first time we did it for a video, and we were actually pretty nervous. We love to cook, but cooking and teaching are different. Still, it was a lot of fun, and there was plenty of laughter.”
Here’s to more cultural exchanges and delicious food adventures in the future!
