The wok is a wonderful and versatile addition to the kitchen. Traditionally used to prepare Asian stir-fries, this large, curved pan is equally indispensable for cooking a wide range of recipes for every course of a meal, from steaming hot soups, to succulent meat, poultry and seafood, and to irresistible desserts. As the recipes in this book show, wok cooking is quick and easy, and with its emphasis on fresh ingredients prepared to return their nutrients, textures and flavours, is also healthy. The contents include: All about wok, Basic ingredients, Appetizers and entrees, Soups, Rice and noodles, Seafood, Beef and pork, Chicken and duck, Vegetables, and Desserts.
A contemporary collection of the latest food trends -- easy to prepared, beautifully presented, and easy to eat. From Asian treats to Spanish Tapas to Mexican wraps and Italian antipastos, even pastries and sweets. Beautifully presented in the crisp, clean style of the entire Essential Kitchen Series. If it can be dipped, dunked, skewered, or popped in your mouth, you'll find it inside.
