New Wok Cooking : Easy, Healthy, One-Pot Meals by Rosa Ross. The small kitchen often has but one cooking pot, and the wok's versatility makes it particularly suitable to fill that unique role. Although this functional pan originated in China, it performs perfectly well in preparation of foods from cuisines all around the world. Ross presents one-dish meals that cook in a wok, and she wants these dishes to be nutritionally sound as well. Ross emphasizes vegetarian cooking, but she includes a number of recipes for beef and duck.

The Food of China by Deh-Ta Hsiung (Photographer), Nina Simonds. Using food as a passport, The Food of China enters the birthplace of Chinese cuisine, taking you on a journey to the Far East. This book highlights the regional varieties of dishes offered by a country with one of the longest culinary histories in the world. With color photographs and gatefold spreads of specialties such as rice and ginger, this book is equal parts cookbook and travelogue. The latest offering from this series provides step-by-step photographs that accompany each recipe and allow you to master the ancient secrets of Chinese cooking. Dim Sum : The Art of Chinese Tea Lunch by Ellen Leong Blonder Most Chinese cookbooks include some recipes for standard dim sum dishes such as scallion pancakes and potstickers, but as Blonder (Every Grain of Rice) found, there is little devoted solely to these popular brunch/tea snacks and certainly nothing as charming and accessible as her little book. She provides 60 recipes, from Pork and Chinese Chive Dumplings to Salt-Fried Prawns, along with sweets and condiments, all illustrated by her own lovely watercolors.
