She includes recipes from all over Asia. Her writing style is sufficiently entertaining that I can sit down and browse through the book just to pass the time. There is a very complete glossary in the back telling about all the unusual ingredients and often what to use if you can't get them. Best of all, she tells how to use your food processor to speed up the preparation. She also is refreshingly nonpreachy about using pre-made ingredients: none of the "well, you can use store-bought tofu if you REALLY need to but you should really make it yourself." This is definately a 4-star cookbook. -paul asente
