3.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful pictures but too many ingrediants per recipe!,
By Elsie (Vancouver, BC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Book of Chinese Cooking (Complete Cookbooks) (Hardcover)
Had this book for a few years, but the recipes are basically untouched. The few we did try worked out, but not as well as hoped. The list of ingredients seem fussy and the sheer number of them are daunting. But there are pictures for each recipe, which is why we bought it. However, it was lots of fun to look at the book and imagine eating the dishes!
5.0 out of 5 stars

This is pretty decent book. There are a few recipes for some of the old standbys in westernized Chinese restaurant's (Sweet and Sour Pork and Lemon Chicken, for example) but there are plenty of more interesting and lesser known dishes as well. I have a huge Chinese cookery book library and this is not even in the top twenty of my favorites but I would have no problem recommending it to people who want a first or second book to learn a little Chinese cooking. There are full page beautiful photographs for each recipe as well as helpful little instructional pictures accompanying the text. I found the recipes for Kung Po Chicken and Fish-flavoured Shredded Pork to a bit tame chili-wise but perfectly good introductions to these quintissential Sichuan dishes.
