Learning to Cook Chinese Cuisine

Chinese cuisine is incredibly diverse and rich, with different cooking styles in the south and north, west and east of the country. However, there are some common elements among all its regional varieties. First of all, there are numerous dishes made from rice and noodles, the active use of spices, and the combination of all necessary components in one dish to make it a tasty and complete meal. This is why the recipes in this book are gathered not by the usual principle of type of dish, but by the main ingredient — in Chinese cuisine, it is difficult to draw a line between appetizers and main courses, and a rich soup with many ingredients can become a full lunch or dinner.
