5 out of 5 stars Healthy eating   June 20, 2008
Three weeks in China last year- lower cholesterol and no gastric reflux-so chefs hat on and 2/3 home cooked Chinese meals a week. Overall I have not been disappointed.First time round , stick religiously to the recipes (on those where some ingredients do not mysteriously disappear) - you will find some absolute gems. Some will require your intervention second time round to boost the taste, persevere, experience comes through. A wonderful addition to my library - and I am 74yo. Frank Wood.

This recipe book is a superb addition to anyone's culinary library - clearly not every recipe will suit every person but it is inconceivable that you would not find a significant number of useful recipes in here and even if you found just one nugget, then considering the price, it would be well worth it.

The variety of recipes in any of the 1000 series is simply staggering and there are quite a few vegetarian recipes here too - to say you are stuck for choice is an understatement.

Ok, so there are no photographs but against that, the books don't cost a fortune either and they are compact.

You really cannot go wrong with any of these recipe books and when you consider they cost little more than 1 issue of pretty much any food magazine, well, they truly are an absolute bargain.

Buy this one, buy them all - you won't be disappointed.



5 out of 5 stars Good, and simple oriental cooking   June 8, 2005
 16 out of 17 found this review helpful

This is an excellent recipe book for the beginner (such as me) who's just bought a wok and wants to get started.

Although there are 1000 recipes here, many of them make clear just how simple Chinese cookery is because with just a handful of ingredients bought at the Chinese (or any) supermarket, you can create loads of dishes you thought were only available at the take-away.

While you probably won't ever be able to re-create a gourmet Chinese restaurant meal, you CAN create dozens of meals (including lots of vegetarian meals) and tastes that you previously thought were just TOO difficult.

Buy that rice wine, star anise, dark soy and get going - if you love Chinese food you SHOULD learn how to make it and this recipe book shows that it's simple!
