Book Description

While Susanna Foo claims to be "North America's Finest Chinese Cook" on the cover of her cookbook, The Zagat Restaurant Guide gives this claim some support by consistently listing Susanna Foo's as one of the best restaurants in Philadelphia.
Foo is known for both the fine quality of her cooking and for her eclectic approach; recipes in her book, Susanna Foo Chinese Cuisine, demonstrate why this is so--imagine Pineapple Salsa, to be served with dim sum, and Grilled Tuna with Jalapeandntilde;o
Pepper Puree. Even traditional recipes such as black bean sauce are presented according to Foo's taste. Information about techniques and ingredients can be exceptionally interesting, and Foo's personal reminiscences, which are scattered through the book,
add to the pleasure of reading.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Product Description:
Susanna Foo has been consistently acclaimed for her stunning interpretations of Chinese food and hailed as one of
America"s best chefs by publications as diverse as Esquire, Food and Wine, and USA Today. In this book, she shares the revolutionary recipes that established her reputation, from Crab Sui Mei with Red Bell Pepper Sauce to Soy-Braised Cornish Hens. Each
one relies on straightforward preparation and easily available ingredients, illustrating Foo"s belief that good Chinese food is every bit as easy to prepare as Italian food and relies on the same principles of simplicity and freshness.
