Description

This beautiful book offers a real insight into the street food cultures of China and vividly evokes the smells and sounds of the markets. It's the closest you may get to experiencing Beijing street food without actually being there, smelling the mix of aromatic spices, caramelized apples, barbecuing meats, and steaming dumplings, with clouds of smoke and noisy bustle all around you, and red lanterns glowing above. Take a journey of discovery into the street food culture of China with the vividly evoked smells and sounds of the markets: the scent of aromatic spices hanging in the air, barbecuing meats, and steaming dumplings, clouds of smoke and noisy bustle all around, and red lanterns glowing above. Over 100 recipes and a wealth of stories and insight into cooking methods bring this cuisine to life. All recipes have been carefully chosen to be achievable for the western cook. Helen and Lise Tse have set out to encapsulate that sense of excitement, awe, wonder, and hunger for these morsels of street food: from soft fluffy bao to hot fried chicken, from piping hot bowls of noodles to coal-roasted squid, delicate tea eggs, and bubble tea, this is food to truly excite the appetite and awaken a sense of adventure in the kitchen.
