Bring Home the Orient: Tasty Chinese Recipes with Simple Ingredients, Detailed Instructions and More

There is a saying that goes like this... "Fashion is in Europe, living is in America, but eating is in China"...

Chinese food is popular throughout the world. Originally available only in Chinatowns, it is now enjoyed by millions and has become one of the most popular food types in many countries. In the US, it became popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with the arrival of Chinese immigrants. In India too, the food arrived with the immigrants, who came to Kolkata (Calcutta) to work in the railways and tanneries.

The Chinese people like to eat fresh food. This is why many like to go to the market daily. They select fresh meats, seasonal vegetables and fruits, and live seafood from local markets. Unlike Western culture, most people are not so concerned about nutrition. They focus more on texture, color, flavor, and aroma. The Chinese people don't consume a lot of dairy products. They get calcium and protein from tofu and soymilk.

In this book, I will introduce you to some of the most popular recipes in Chinese cuisine. Some of them are traditional dishes, while others are modified versions that have become popular in many Western countries.

This book is for all home chefs who want to prepare some delightful dishes from China in their kitchens.

Happy reading!
