Summary: Oriental Herbal Cook Book for Good Health
Review: I had to purchase this book for my wife. She is a health conscious fanatic of herbs. She believes the only way to liven a dish is to use natural herbs. She does not believe in the store bought seasonings. I am the cook of the house. When, I purchased this book I thought it was just another Martha Stewart. I have learned so much from this book, it is amazing. I love the way the author put pictures into to show what the herb looks like. I love the fact that he/she showed the herb, what it does, how to use it, and generally where it is available. Cookbooks usually, show elegant and sometimes easy dishes to make, but never where to get the key ingredients. I let my friends borrow it and they have amazing stories to tell. This is a great gift for those who are health conscious and people who are blinded by fried foods.

Summary: The food speaks for me...
Review: I have a cooking class in high school. The reason I took cooking was so I wouldn't have to speak in front of the class. That is why I avoided drama. Our teacher asked us to choose any book we liked. We had to read it. Cook a meal from it , and we had to make sure we chose a book that we would want to recommend. Well, I am a fitness fanatic and I am involved in all the sports at school. A girl on my basketball team is Asian. Her mother bought this book. The reason I read it was Asians have the stereo type of being healthy and fit. Which is what I wanted my dish to portray. Other of my peers were just making the traditional vegetable platter or no meat dish. The reason I found this book a blue ribbon winner is because the author didn't write with excellency, but simplicity. She was wise to show photos of the cuisines and what they would do to strengthen your body. I like this book because any age is able to read, understand, and cook. I bought this book for my grandma for we have the same attitude toward health and food. I believe this book will be a succes for she arranged it well.

Review: I purchased the book for my mom for her birthday. I've never been into Chinese herb myself, but she prepared a couple dishes that I thought was pretty good. My mom seems to enjoy the cook book. She contantly tells me how this one dish is good for what part of the body. A great book for moms whom cook and are interested in Asian herbs.
