Good Intro to Chinese Vegetarian Cooking,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of Chinese Vegetarian Cooking (The Art of Vegetarian Cooking) (Hardcover)
This book does a good job of introducing Chinese Vegetarian Cooking, by discussing methods, equipment, and includes an ingredients glossary. The recipes are delicious, and healthy, and generally easy to prepare. Most ingredients can be purchased at a reasonably stocked grocery store. We use it regularly, and find it's creative recipes both tasty and inspiring experimentation. We especially like the Hot Pepper Rice Sticks with Peanuts. Yummy!!!

This review is from: The Art of Chinese Vegetarian Cooking (The Art of Vegetarian Cooking) (Hardcover)
I cook Chinese and other ethnic vegetarian dishes nearly every day. Yet this book never once tempted me. I found the recipes to be mundane, even boring and the seasonings inadequate and uninspired. Exotic ingredients, sure, but they're not always available. And the authors' sermonizing about low-salt soy sauce and low-fat oil and other unnecessary instructions to make an otherwise exciting and healthful cuisine simply tasteless truly offended me. Aren't I old enought to choose my own soy sauce?
