Kan has "provided instruction in all phases of the Cantonese cuisine, selecting recipes from his restaurant menus and from the traditional and home-type foods. Three-quarters of the recipes are easy to prepare, requiring only a few ingredients . . . The remaining quarter of the recipes are for ceremonial or banquet type dishes and therefore require more preparation and unusual ingredients." Contents include: Chinese Utensils & Techniques, Native condiments Sauces & Ingredients, Soups, Rice, Vegetables, Eggs, Fish, Poultry, Meats, Desserts, Chinese Tidbits, Teas & Wines.
The cookbook is in good used condition for its age with just an old price sticker on the front cover and just a little wear to the front and back covers from use and re-shelving. INSIDE the pages are at least 98% free of any marks, stains or writing.
