Award-Winning Chef Ming Tsai Debuts Mings’ Frozen Meals

This spring, take your taste buds on a culinary adventure with Mings, a new frozen meal line thoughtfully crafted by James Beard and Emmy Award-winning chef, TV personality, restaurateur and entrepreneur Ming Tsai. A modern approach to Asian cuisine, Mings’ products feature bold, authentic flavors that come together in just minutes.
“When a simple fried rice dish I made at 10 years old put a smile on my friends’ faces, I realized that food has the power to bring people happiness, which ultimately inspired me to become a chef,” Tsai said. “Now, I’m channeling that joy with Mings’ frozen meals. I’m excited to bring these dishes to homes nationwide, all without the hassle of cooking and cleaning, whenever you’re hungry for delicious, authentic Asian food.”
Tsai’s renowned cooking style works indulgent umami ingredients into every chef-crafted noodle-based recipe, including:
- Spicy Dan Dan Noodles: Wheat noodles and ground chicken tossed with a tingly and spicy Sichuan-style red sauce.
- Spicy Beef Ramen: Ramen noodles with seared steak, bok choy, green onions, and toasted black and white sesame seeds in a spicy beef broth.
- Chicken Ramen: Ramen noodles with seasoned dark meat chicken, bok choy, green onions, and black and toasted white sesame seeds in a savory chicken broth.
- Sweet Chili Chicken and Broccoli: Rice noodles in a sweet and spicy chili sauce with seasoned dark meat chicken, broccoli and colorful bell peppers, topped with black and toasted white sesame seeds.
