The Chinese Microwave Cookbook

Skeptical? Don't be. Pearly Hoh's decade of microwave cooking demonstrations have convinced even the most traditional of Chinese chefs. Just look at the wonderful food you can prepare in your cool, clean kitchen.
It all starts with a comprehensive 12-page glossary of ingredients as your colorful guide to buying and preparing everything from Chinese celery to wonton skins. Menu plans for a Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner, Birthday Celebration, and Buffet Party end this unique cookbook. In between, you'll find these recipes perfect for the microwave oven: healthy and delicious Szechuan Mixed Vegetables, double-boiled soups that emphasize clarity, and normally time-consuming snacks like Chung (rice dumplings).
Nearly 200 carefully tested recipes include home-cooked favorites, restaurant-quality gourmet recipes, dim sum fare, festive foods - even brews for mental and physical energy. Each recipe lists ingredients and groups them by cooking stage. You are taken step by step through preparation, cooking, and standing time.
