WINNER 'Best China Cookbook' UK Gourmand World Cookbook Awards
2020/1. From bustling cosmopolitan cities to remote rural
landscapes, this comprehensive volume explores the varied food and
cooking of China with fascinating background information on the
local geography and culinary history. Bringing together classic
dishes, from the old imperial kitchens of Beijing to the tea houses
of southern China, expert Terry Tan explores the diverse regions
and introduces the reader to local ingredients and cooking methods.
Chinese food is justifiably loved the world over, but take a closer
look, and you'll discover that there is much more to this nation's
cooking than the dishes offered at many restaurants. From aromatic
soups and simple stir-fries, and rice and noodle staples, to
banquet-style roasted meats, with congees, dim sum, and sizzling
street food along the way, this is a must-have reference for anyone
who is passionate about the food of China. A culinary tour of
China, spanning the Mandarin cooking of the north, Cantonese dishes
in the south, Sichuan food in the east and Shanghai cuisine in the
west. An extensive introduction explores the history and
traditions, the ingredients and how to prepare and use them, and
clear step-by-step recipes will guide you to success, with
evocative images throughout. Recipes include all the well-known
classics - Beijing Duck, Crispy Chilli Beef, Pork Dumplings,
Dan-Dan Noodles - as well as unusual local delicacies such as
Lobster Noodles, Beggars' Chicken, Black Rice Porridge, and Red
Beans in Syrup.
