Descriere A Very Chinese Cookbook: 100 Recipes from China and Not China (But Still Really Chinese) - Kevin Pang

Storytelling meets foolproof technique as the father and son behind America's Test Kitchen's Hunger Pangs YouTube series celebrate the joys of Chinese cooking. The 100 recipes in this cookbook are for newbies and experienced folk alike, whether you're seasoning your first wok or ready to earn the merit badge: I folded my first Xiao Long Bao. Equally happy cooking American Chinese takeout or Sichuan banquet fare, James Beard Award-winning writer Kevin Pang and his father Jeffrey bring a wide-ranging and affectionately irreverent look at Chinese cooking. In a voice that's entertaining and encouraging, they spotlight 100 recipes, each rigorously tested by the cooks at ATK to ensure success. Prepare simple meals such as Scallion Oil Noodles, Clay Pot Chicken Rice, and Stir-Fried Beef with Gai Lan. When time allows, produce irresistible Red-Braised Pork Belly, Salted Egg Fried Shrimp, and celebratory Ginger-Scallion Lobster. Two Generations of Storytelling: Jeffrey recounts a lifelong love of cooking that began in childhood, growing up in Hong Kong, cooking at his mother's side, and exploring the street vendors and markets. Kevin dispenses practical wisdom that brings the recipes to life--why Beef Ho Fun is the mark of a great Cantonese chef; why Shu Mai is the world heavyweight champion of dumplings. \n Test Kitchen Techniques: From the basics of successful stir-frying to folding methods for Shanghai Soup Dumplings, careful instructions and abundant photos teach key steps. \n Choose-Your-Dumpling Adventure: An customizable guide helps you mix and match fillings and shapes with a foolproof dough to make potstickers, boiled dumplings, and steamed dumplings. \n Chinatown Shopping Guide: From choosing the right soy sauce or vinegar to buying fresh noodles, seeking out superlative Buddhist-style chickens, and appreciating the wonders of 1,000-year-old eggs, let the Pangs be your trusted guides. \n Breakfast All Day: Whether 10AM or 4PM, it's the right time to enjoy Egg Tarts, Condensed Milk Toast, or Bolo Bao along with a cup of Milk Tea. \nJames Beard Award winner Kevin Pang and his dad Jeffrey, hosts of the hit America's Test Kitchen series Hunger Pangs, show you the way to delicious Chinese cooking in this accessible, funny, heartfelt cookbook. From American Chinese classics (General Tso's Chicken) to Sichuan street foods (Dan Dan Mian) and Hong Kong dim sum favorites (Shu Mai), A Very Chinese Cookbook is ideal for both the Chinese food-curious and ex
