Yum

I have made quite a few of the recipes from this book and they have all been delicious. The sauces especially stand out for me - I have never been good at concocting stir-fry sauces, but there are several in here that have become standbys. Tofu is really treated well in this book - its versatility is showcased - and there are many noodle recipes as well. Highly recommended.

Good one for your Asian Cookbook library.

I'm not a vegetarian but this is a delightful recipe book. Full of authentic recipes covering everything from appetizers to desserts and everything in between. The ingredients are not extremely obscure as some readers find with other Asian cookbooks. The recipes are well written and some come with illustrations to aid in things like rolling an egg roll wrapper. What a wonderful variety of over 135 recipes to cook. This will keep you coming back to it.
