5.0 out of 5 stars Nice update to the 82 dim sum book., June 9, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Dim Sum Dumpling Book (Paperback)
This is a modern version of Eileen Lo's 1982 dim sum book . . which is my personal favorite recipe book for dim sum. I noticed that in accordance with the new low-fat trends of the 90's, Ms. Lo is using more infused oils and broths than in her 82 book. The recipes are very clear and easy to follow, never any guess work involved. Ms. Lo writes a little about each recipe, explaining tid-bits about the translation of the name, regionality of the recipe, or modifications she has made. I was especially pleased because this is the only book I have found a recipe for "baked" BBQ pork buns, instead of the steamed kind, a treat that until now I could only get at chinese specialty bakeries. I consider this and the '82 Dim Sum book, a necessary part of any chinese cookbook collect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple and delicious recipes, as good as most tea houses., November 9, 1998
This review is from: The Dim Sum Dumpling Book (Paperback)
This is a superb book with mouthwatering dimsum. Some techniques need to be mastered, but most are simple. Seems to be very authentic with the "tea house" taste. I love this book and recommend it to everyone!

5.0 out of 5 stars The most comprehensive DIM SUM book on the market, October 17, 2011
This review is from: The Dim Sum Dumpling Book (Paperback)
I bought several books in my journey to learn DIM SUM and this one is the most comprehensive one. Eventhough it doesn't contain any pictures the drawings are very nice and understandable. This book will serve better to a professional chef than to a foodie.
