Fun Cookbook with Yummy Recipes

My son and I love cooking from this book...He is an especially big fan of tofu and "In the Chinese Kitchen" provides some seriously tasty tofu recipes. We also love the potstickers and Tina's Onion Pancakes!

good, basic cookbook of Chinese recipes

The shelves, in stores and online, are weighed down by cookbooks, including those for Chinese cuisine. If you're looking for all the basics of Chinese food & cooking, plus a variety of interesting (but easy) recipes, all presented in a breezy, concise manner, look no further. The author was born into a Chinese restaurant family and has come full circle, teaching cooking classes and conducting highly-regarded tours of San Francisco's Chinatown. But that's another book...

the most accessible book on Chinese cusine

No other book on Chinese cuisine does such a good job of teaching the subject. This is the first book every Chinese chef, cook or wannabe should read.

This book is a fabulous resource.

Experienced chefs as well as those just venturing into the world of asian cooking will find this book helpful. Fong-Torres is a true expert and master chef.
