Notes about this book

  • Thredbende on August 10, 2011

    Pork Balls are a fried meat ball served with a simple sherry/soy/sugar sauce. This is terrific as toothpick food. I make the pork balls, freeze them, and reheat in the microwave with fresh sauce for parties.

Publishers Text

Successful Cookbook Author Nancy Chih Ma, brings the art of cooking Chinese to the reader with over 200 authentic Chinese recipes adapted to a normal, modern kitchen. There are no hard-to-find ingredients called for (some items are found in Asian markets or can be substituted for other easier ingredients, all noted in the book). The author is equally helpful in providing information on Chinese cuisine in general, table settings and entertainment, typical Chinese menus, on the proper preparation of rice and tea, a very important and useful detail in creating the Chinese experience, and also her advice on the use of spices and flavorings. Best of all, the author places emphasis on time-saving and uncomplicated techniques throughout the book. An excellent cookbook filled with unique, delicious recipes (many with color photographs) and the author's style makes it feel like you are cooking with her.
