    Patricia did a really good job in creating this cookbook with not just beautiful images but also the recipes are taste-proof (meaning that the dishes in this book has been cooked and for sure been worth the word – yummy!!! to be placed in the book!) This is indeed a great find as there is a lot of recipes and I know some of you out there prefer images, however this book is going to cook your way into your stomach. Do not be afraid to get one as this is on my top favorite cookbooks to choose from when cooking for friends!

    Most of the dishes in here has been a long-time favorite, and I am licking my lips just typing about the it… heehee

    A book not only has history of flavor, but also a mixed of wonderful imagination of taste!
    Hope you will enjoy the book as much as I do and not be afraid to try try try!

    Cheers :))

    The Asian Grandmothers Cookbook: Home Cooking from Asian American KitchensThis one book replaced three others ( I gave them away)it has the very best selections of Asian recipes I have ever seen. The recipes are explained so even a novice cook can prepare them. I love to cook and collect a wide selection of cookbooks for me to replace three books with this one is unusual . The Asian Grandmothers Cookbook is so complete you won’t need another Asian cookbook.

    This is one of the best cookbooks I own. Visually, the book is beautiful from the photographs to the background patterns to the layout. More importantly though, the recipes are diverse, tasty, and the real thing. Who doesn’t love that nostalgic well loved meal prepared by your grandma. Mine is across the country but I still remember all the holidays and large family meals. Here you find familiar favorites but also the more obscure authentic dishes. I look forward to finding out more of those secrets, usually passed down through families, that make a dish really special. Better get cooking!
