Description
Discover why the Chinese approach to food is so different from our own. In this engaging exploration, Lorraine Clissold explains how the Chinese balance their diet by satisfying their taste buds with five flavours, eating a mixture of staple foods and carefully prepared dishes, and making sure they eat the right proportions of solids, liquids and hot and cold foods.
With 16 short chapters, filled with examples and recipes, this book offers a fascinating insight into the Chinese way of eating. From understanding the cultural significance of food to learning how to create balanced meals, Clissold's approach is both informative and accessible.
