520 |a Master the authentic Chinese cooking methods through logical sequence of simple steps and fundamental techniques by preparing the easy recipes included. Jim Lee was born in China in 1914 and came to the U.S. to work as an artist and teacher in NYC. This title started as a 56-page booklet that Mr. Lee handed out to enthusiastic dinner guests who were pressing him for his delicious and authentic Chinese recipes. Mr. Lee worked with another well-established Chinese chef, Mr. Lee Lum, to create one of the most authentic and east-to-use cookbooks of Chinese cuisine. The recipes are diverse enough for all skill levels, from novice home cooks to professional Chinese chefs, and Mr. Lee offers teaching lessons after the recipes that provide insight into the reasoning behind the traditional Chinese cooking methods. A truly reliable Chinese cook book for anyone who cooks, with illustrations by Isabella Lee.
