About
Punnee is 100% Lisu and was born in the mountains of Chiangdao in a remote Lisu Hilltribe Village. There were no paved roads, no electricity, no hospitals. She was raised and lived off the land the same way that the Lisu, a nomadic people have lived for generations. This is where she learned her skills and vast knowledge of food and herbs both for eating and medicinal purposes. Social life and most of Punnees childhood memories revolved around food, in that respect not much has changed over the years. The shared gathering, preparation and eating is a cornerstones of Lisu Hill-tribe family life. Growing up poor meat was rarely available so all recipes were vegetarian based, meat was added when it could be had. Most meals were soup based. The Lisu people believed soup to be very healthy.
