Things you need to start Chinese cuisine

Wanna start Chinese cooking but you do not know where to start? I'll tell you what you will need to buy to get into it.

Basical things and ingredients you'll need:
-A wok (this is nooooot really absolutely necessary but it is useful  if you want to do good batches.)
-Light soy sauce (You will need this sauce almost in every Chinese recipes, at impossibility to find, you can use Kikoman soy sauce, but it is not the best.)
-Dark soy sauce (Awesome for marinades and seasonings!)
-Potato starch (use as thickener and meat protection against hight heat.)
-Shaoxing wine (use always to marinate your meat. If you can not find, use any cheap light white wine.)
-Ginger (A base flavour to stir fries. Don't use to much because it has a strong flavour.)
-Garlic (Be sure to always have it in the fridge because you will use it often.)
-Sesame oil (aka: the final touch, use to add a nutty taste, use one drop at time!)
-White rice (Yes, I am talking about the regular white rice, you need to rince it 6 times and use 1 cup x 1 cup of water.)
