Millie Chan's Kosher Chinese Cookbook

Additional Details

Description: Chinese cuisine, with its fresh ingredients and wide range of tastes, textures, and colors, can readily be adapted to the kosher kitchen. Here, collected for the first time, are more than three hundred recipes combining the exotic flavors of Chinese cuisine in accordance with traditional Jewish dietary laws. 

Millie Chan's Kosher Chinese Cookbook grew out of Millie's realization that both Chinese and kosher cooking are culinary traditions with a spiritual foundation and a reverence for life. Light and healthy, quick and easy to prepare, Chinese cuisine adds a new dimension to the kosher kitchen. 

Millie Chan's recipes include everything from dim sum to soups, turkey to veal dishes, rice to noodle treats. Whether you want to create an entire Chinese banquet or use just one or two recipes to complement a traditional holiday feast, Millie Chan's Kosher Chinese Cookbook offers hundreds of original ideas. 

Smoked fish, a deli classic, becomes distinctly Chinese when made with five-spice powder. Wonton Soup can be served in place of matzoh ball soup. Cantonese Roast Veal is a great replacement for the usual brisket. And Sweet-and-Sour Steamed Yellow Pike is a delicious alternative to gefilte fish. Other mouth-watering recipes include Stir-Fried Duck with Ginger, Steamed Cantonese Roast Veal Buns, Stir- Fried Halibut in a Basket, Vegetarian Spring Rolls, and Turkey in Scallion Sauce. 

Whether you are strictly observant or just love to prepare outstanding Chinese food, Millie Chan's Kosher Chinese Cookbook is filled with deliriously authentic Chinese dishes that are not only easy to prepare but also follow the laws of kashruth to the letter.
