Summary: Authentic Ingredients and Flavor
Review: Having lived in Southeast Asia for six years, I am able to recognize authentic Southeast Asian flavor, but until I received this book as a gift, I did not know how to cook any of the meals I remember. Though this book has great-tasting authentic dishes, it explains the various ingredients and cooking methods so well that anyone can cook like a true Southeast Asian!

Summary: THE ESSENTIAL OF WOK COOKBOOK
Review: I am not really a cook but I tried wok cooking just to try it. After a couple of wok books, I found The Essential of Wok Cookbook. Now this is the only one I use. It has everything you need. The recepts are very clear for even a novice like me. There are a lot of very different spices, sauces, and other things needed in Asian wok cooking. This book has great sections to explain all of them. The pictures of the receipts are wonderfull, you can almost taste the food. The book takes you from how to buy wok and the other tools needed through more complicated receipts. It has a star system to show how easy or hard the recepts are. It gives the total prep and cook time for each receipt and they are pretty accurate. I have tried about 20 receipts so far and they all have been great. It is also just beauitifully printed book with lots of pictures. If you need a wok cookbook this is the only one you will need.
