Dim Sum Made Easy or Enciclopedia de Jugos Curativos

Dim Sum Made Easy

Author: Lucille Liang

Tasty little tidbits that make a meal or serve as appetizers: that's Dim Sum, a Cantonese term that means "heart's delight." And it allows diners the pleasure of sampling a wide range of foods, from dumplings to shrimp balls, in bite-sized portions. These simple recipes—which all use authentic ingredients such as Shao Shing rice wine and tapioca starch—make it easy to create a luscious Chinese banquet. A discussion of equipment (woks, cleavers), followed by information on techniques such as stir-frying and red cooking, will get home chefs started. Each recipe—with its fillings, doughs, marinades, and sauces—is beautifully laid out, along with advice on what can be prepared in advance, interesting variations on each dish, and introductions to unfamiliar ingredients.
