Betty Crocker's New Chinese Cookbook: Recipes by Leeann Chin

Every recipe I've tried tastes like it's from a quality Chinese restaurant. The recipes are easy to understand, I can find the ingredients in my local market, and the finished quality is consistently delicious.

I came across this book recently and found it very useful for my initial experience at cooking Chinese. Although I'm a pretty proficient cook,, I've never had much success trying Chinese dishes before. The difficulty I'd had with some of the other well-known Chinese cookbooks is that they are too complicated if you've never cooked with some of the ingredients before -- too many variables for the novice. This book takes a somewhat simpler, yet satisfying approach. It doesn't lack interest. I think I'll learn a great deal from it.

Cook a healthy, light dinner or a full banquet for twelve using Leeann Chin's Chinese Cookbook. From dumplings to lo mein to sizzling szechuan steak, this book tells it all in a colorful and easy to follow manner. Learn the basics of Chinese Cooking and before you know it, you'll be stir-frying up a storm. Impress your guests with these mouthwatering recipes which not only taste delicious but look beautiful too. Leeann Chin learned her secrets from her family's chef while growing up in China. Taste authentic Chinese cooking from a pro and savor this book for years to come

After following these recipes you will be able to make Chinese food more tasty than you will find in the average restaurant. Now my kids would rather eat their sesame chicken at home rather than going out because it's better! The ingredients are inexpensive and the results are great! I HIGHLY recommend this cookbook (and I've been cooking Chinese food most of my life).

I have at least 6 Chinese cookbooks, and this one is absolutely the best ever! So far, each recipe I have tried has been rated between an 8 and a 10 for taste. It doesn't get much better than that. I am just waiting for another book to be written with Leann Chin's additional recipes.
