Product Description
Contemporary Chinese Vegetarian Cuisine contains 60 quick and easy recipes for todays busy yet healthy lifestyle. Unlike many traditional Chinese vegetarian dishes which use highly processed wheat gluten to replace meats, the emphasis here is on natural ingredients such as mushrooms and bean curd, with fresh vegetables. Written in a step-by-step format with additional tips on the side, the tasty yet healthy dishes range from hearty soups, to steamed dishes and quick stir-fries and are a delight to create. This cookbook includes recipes for preparing a full course vegetarian meal which may tease your taste buds with a spicy and tangy hot and sour soup, let you savour the savoury crispness of bean curd rolls with mushrooms, and delight in a refreshing dessert of sweet-scented lychees. Measurements are given in Metric, Imperial and American units for further convenience, and a fully illustrated glossary of ingredients provides practical information about popular ingredients found in Chinese vegetarian dishes.
Reader Reviews
While not a complete waste of money, I confess I was disappointed with this book. Most of the recipes are for appetizers, snacks (dim sum)or desserts - virtually none of the recipes are meant for entrees or mains. Many also call for deep frying - again, not what I was looking for. Of the 60 recipes given (was it 60? It feels more like 20) I would say that between 6-8 were actually worth considering following. On the positive side, the food photography is lovely - but the book is more of a "coffee table book" than it is a practical recipe book that one would use regularly.
