Best Asian Cookbooks of 2010

As holiday gift giving is at its peak, we’re recommending our favorite Asian cookbooks of 2010. These cookbooks are educational, entertaining, informative, filled with personal stories and most of all, they have wonderful recipes ranging from very easy to the more sophisticated according to your level of expertise. And of course, the food photography is wonderful and at times, just mouth watering phenomenal. We’d like to congratulate Grace Young, Author and Master Wokstar of Stir-Frying To The Sky’s Edge for being awarded the 2010 Gourmand World Cookbook Award Best Chinese Cuisine cookbook in the US ,Shubhra Ramineni, Author of Entice with Spice for wining the award for Best Indian Cuisine cookbook in the US and Elizabeth Andoh, Author of Kansha for Best Japanese Cuisine cookbook in the US!

Overall, it’s wonderful to see how many great Asian cookbooks have been published and we’re so pleased to see how diverse they are as well. Personally, we love reading cookbooks for pleasure but it does make me hungry!

    Trying to figure out if there is a misprint on Page 105, for Chicken Tikka Masala. Half pound of chicken (1/2 Chicken kebabs recipe) seems skimpy for 4 people.

    Hi Liz…I recommened the serving size to be 3 to 4 people only because this is a very rich dish with a creamy curry base, and I usually serve it with other dishes at the table so there is a variety of meat and vegetables. Many of my portion sizes may seem small, but I took into account a full Indain meal has a variety of vegetables,condiments, bread and rice. You may try my recipe as listed, and then if you like it, you can most definitely double it. Hope you like it!:-)
