Dust jacket notes read: The East has fascinated men and women since Marco Polo first brought news of it back to Venice those many centuries ago; not even a contracting world and political uncertainty has lessened the spell. The architecture, the people, the very terrain - all are familiar and recognizable yet somehow subtly different. And, of course, the food, with its exotic spices, mysterious ingredients, special techniques, well, the food could evoke the magic and excitment of the Orient in your own kitchen if only you knew how. "The Complete Oriental Cook Book," provides this opportunity, with its colorful collection of over 400 authentic recipes, all translated into easy, everyday, understandable cooking terms...From the sumptuous Mogul feasts of northern India, the the simple but delicious vegetarian classics of the south, from the glories of the peasant cuisine of China, where every scrap of food is used by necessity and transformed into an art form, to the cool, delicate, formal beauty of a Japanese meal, with its emphasis on healthy, low-cholesterol food - all are guaranteed to be absolutely delicious.
