Good Intro to Chinese Vegetarian Cooking

This book does a good job of introducing Chinese Vegetarian Cooking, by discussing methods, equipment, and includes an ingredients glossary. The recipes are delicious, and healthy, and generally easy to prepare. Most ingredients can be purchased at a reasonably stocked grocery store. We use it regularly, and find it's creative recipes both tasty and inspiring experimentation. We especially like the Hot Pepper Rice Sticks with Peanuts. Yummy!!!
