Reddit reviews China: The Cookbook

I've recently purchased this one https://www.amazon.com/China-Cookbook-Kei-Lum-Chan/dp/0714872245

​

I've been really wanting to learn chinese cooking and find it difficult finding recipes online as I don't know the chinese names for any dishes.

​

This one seemed authentic. I've made some delicious meals out of it but some I havent liked. I am curious though if I havent liked them just because of my taste (e.g. boiling rump steak for 30 minutes).

​

My knowledge is chinese cooking play around alot more with textures and it doesn't always translate well to westerners.

​

anyway, /u/mthmchris do you know this cookbook too and what are your thoughts?

I have been very happy with China: The Cookbook

I recently picked this up: https://www.amazon.com/China-Cookbook-Kei-Lum-Chan/dp/0714872245

It's a neat overview of many Chinese regional dishes, promoting authentic recipes.

For Chinese Cuisine, China: The Cookbook is what you're gonna want. It came out last year and has over 600 authentic recipes.
