Heart Smart Chinese Cooking at Chef2Chef

Make a significant difference to your healthwhile treating your tastebuds to fine Chinese cuisine! These Heartsmart recipes, endorsed by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, come from the kitchen of a Hong Kong-born chef, restaurant consultant, and writer--and they are scrumptious. You'll discover a whole new world of flavors, textures, and ingredients, one with a rainbow's variety of vegetables, whole grains, and limited amounts of well-seasoned meats. Several rich-tasting (but butter- and oil-free) stocks will help you get the most out of every recipe; they enhance the flavor of any ingredient, take little time, and freeze beautifully for future use. 100 easy-to-follow, lower-fat, lower-sodium dishes include such delicacies as Prawns with Cashews, Singapore Stir-Fried Noodles, Spicy Tangerine Beef, and Stir-Fried Chicken with Mango. Each one has a complete nutritional analysis, and there's a photo guide, fat-cutting secrets, simple new techniques and practical tips for everyday cooking, and information on substitutes for Chinese ingredients.
