Book Reviews of Williams-Sonoma: Food Made Fast Asian (Food Made Fast)
Book Review: I love this cook book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is WONDERFUL. I'm a busy mom. The section of 20 minutes really take 20 minutes! The food tastes GREAT. My husband is shocked how many of the recipes we have already tried. We've made nearly 50% of all them now. To boot - the ingredients are genius - you invest really in a select 12-ish ingredients (like spices, oils, etc) and you can make so many dishes from them.
We have cut out eating out by quite a bit, and I have now added several of these books in this series to my wish list based on this experience.
Some cons -
Dishes that use or you personally add veggies to. I find full sodium soy sauce a little salty. So I have on a couple of recipes written right in the book to use low sodium soy sauce instead.
Likewise with oil. The shrimp recipes I cut the oil down, otherwise it's just a tad oily.
Finally - last recommendation - the recipes that have you add the 1/4 tsp or 1/2 tsp of cornstarch - try making the sauce ahead of time. It's a matter of taste - but if you can let it sit 10 minutes - it thickens way more (like Chinese take out) than the 1 minute it calls for while cooking it. I just put it in the fridge until I'm ready. So so good.
I can't wait to make some of these dishes for my mother-in law who really is carb conscience. She wouldn't eat any rice, so I will try to make more sauce and just add more veggies. Yum!
