Review
This book contains numerous and economical recipes using readily available ingredients. Each recipe is accompanied by step-by-step color photographs making Chinese cooking very easy and enjoyable for everyone. The book includes a unique menu chart, suggestions for accompaniments for each recipe, plus a final presentation of dishes. -- Book Description

Product Description
FOREWORD
The title of this book expresses the intent and purpose for which it was written. You will find that the key to great Chinese cooking lies in learning to enjoy yourself foremost and letting everything else follow.
This book will guide you through the simple techniques necessary for preparing the basic ingredients contained in the easy-to-follow recipes. The recipes have been developed and tested in Chinese cooking classes, along with a few personal favorites that have been handed down from family generations. Suggestions for meal planning have been reduced to a simple chart, for quick and easy reference.
The highly nutritious ingredients and quick sealing cooking methods of Chinese cooking are consistent with the emergence of a health and diet oriented society. The informal Chinese dinner is especially suited for today's life styles. Nutritious, economical and easy to prepare, Chinese food also happens to be very delicious. Thus, this book's emphasis has been placed upon the preparation of dishes used in everyday Chinese meals.
As you gain proficiency and personal confidence in Chinese cooking you will find this book helpful in adapting various recipes to your own personal tastes and experimenting with different ingredients to achieve a desired result. I encourage all my students and readers to go beyond the recipes, substitute ingredients, and - most importantly - have fun and Enjoy Chinese Cooking.
-Judy Lew --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars outstanding Chinese cookbook!, February 23, 1999
By A Customer
This is one of the best Chinese cookbooks I have ever used. It is simple to follow and very clear in its directions and the photos are remarkable. Inasmuch as I cook Chinese food almost every day, this book has made Chinese cooking even simpler than my Chinese Mother taught me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really is Quick and Easy..., April 10, 2007
This whole series of books is so well illustrated and written that anyone can follow them. As a culinary student and personal chef I love the fact that there is a picture of what everything is suppose to look like along the way. If you are wanting to cook and try some authentic tasting Chinese cuisine this is a great book to start with. I am hoping to collect more in the series. The format and food are both excellent!!!
