Through China is a far-away country, Chinese people have created colorful, bustling Chinatown areas in our major cities around the globe. Their pion for food is reflected everywhere, in the sheer number and variety of restaurants, and on the shelves of countless Chinese Food stores and supermarkets. Increasingly, these ingredients are now sold in major supermarkets, reflecting a growing popular interest in the cuisine.
The essence of China is distilled in these colorful pages. Here you'll find over 100 beautifully illustrated recipes, which show you how to cook authentic, appetizing dishes in your own home, using these intriguing ingredients. With an enticing selection of fragrant soups, meat, fish and shellfish, rice, noodles, poultry and game, vegetable dishes, desserts, dim sum , pancakes and snacks, you'll be impatient to get cooking at once!
Traditional Chinese culture emphasizes a strong sense of family, the importance of children, and respect for the elderly. Several generations of one family commonly eat together, sharing food and gossip with evident pleasure. The food they eat is not only delicious, it is also very healthy, with a strong emphasis on fresh, natural ingredients. Because it is usually cooked so quickly, all the natural goodness, color and texture are retained.
In Complete Chinese Cooking you'll find special feature pages focusing on those key ingredients which give unique character to the cooking. They provide invaluable information about fresh herbs, fruit and vegetables, special sauces, spices and dim sum as well as advice on cook's utensils.
