Great Chinese cookbook--has Beef with Orange Rind recipe, Aug 31 2009
By Student of the Word - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Classic 1000 Chinese Recipes (Paperback)
This was a gift 12 years ago, when I sought in vain for an Orange Beef recipe, since that dish is not commonly found where I live. Excellent food, clear instructions, but virtually no photographs or would be rated higher. Really, the food I have tried is 5-star. New cover, to get the old one costs almost $45 on Amazon here! (Also available on Amazon UK) Enjoy!

Hardly 'Classic' Chinese, Jan 14 2011
By C. J. Thompson "Arctic John" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Classic 1000 Chinese Recipes (Paperback)
This review refers to the 1993 edition entitled 'The Classic 1000 Chinese Recipes', as opposed to the 2003 edition which omits the initial 'The' from the title.The book appears to be part of a series all dealing with a different national cuisine but I can't really say that this particular volume has moved me to purchase any of the others. In truth, many of the recipes it provides are clearly written and will likely produce some tasty results. However, describing them as Classic Chinese dishes is a wishful thinking at best. A few of the simpler dishes would likely be at home even on a menu in China but the bulk are merely 'Chinese-ish' at best. Some recipes, though having the names of classic Chinese dishes, are often not even remotely close to their namesakes. If authenticity is of no concern then this book is probably adequate for many (although there are almost no pictures), but if you are looking for a book about actual Chinese cuisine then this is not for you.
