Title: A treasure. Read BEFORE you buy a wok.
Product review: Thoroughly researched, clear, and written with great respect for traditions. Interesting photos, too. I love the Chinese idea that a properly chosen and cared for wok imparts good energy (chi, aka hei, aka hay) to the food. She tells you which kind of wok to look for, and why, and where you can find authentic, inexpensive ones in the US -- ones that will work on our ranges -- and where to get all kinds of supplies. The recipe section is much more appealing than the other books I've looked at so far, and there are enough recipes to keep you happily busy for a year, if not a lifetime, divided into sections about poultry, meat, seafood and shellfish, and vegetables. I got this from the library, but I think I'm going to have to buy a copy.
