Summary of Zen: The Art of Modern Eastern Cooking

A sense of well-being and good health is certainly high on most people's list of concerns. In this refreshing and informative book, Deng Ming-Dao shows readers that life need not be that frantic and encourages them to establish a balance in their lives though diet.

Drawing attention to the innately healthy practices of eating only fresh, seasonal foods, considering color, and allowing for the compatibility of flavors, this book will awaken the reader's senses and invigorate both the body and the spirit. From classic Zen dishes like Five-Color Stir-Fry to creative recipes like Mango Ginger Gazpacho, all of the recipes are accompanied with anecdotes and quotations from Zen masters. Also included is a section on tea and the ceremonial Zen approach to preparing and drinking it. This thought-provoking book is more than a collection of recipes--it is the key to a new lifestyle.
