China is the fourth-largest country in the world, and it is home to one of the broadest-reaching culinary traditions. However, students will be interested to find that the food found in most Chinese restaurants has little resemblance to the traditional dishes of China. This engaging, fact-filled book explores the foods associated with five of the best-known food destinations in the country. Simple recipes from each region are presented in easy-to-follow steps and photographs. Familiar foods like sweet and sour chicken are shown alongside lesser-known fare, like Lion's Head Meatballs, providing something for adventurous eaters and reluctant readers alike. A gorgeous introduction to one of the planet's most diverse, and delicious, food traditions.
