The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook tells how to create quick, fresh Asian recipes at home – over a hundred Asian dishes easy for busy American cooks are featured. From traditional Chinese dishes from the author’s mother to modern take out favorites such as Baked Garlic Chilli Wings, this packs in color photos and easy recipes perfect for cooks who tend to think of Chinese food as too complex or time-consuming to prepare at home!

This cookbook is not only informative, it’s funny and whitty at the same time. I’m an average cook and this cookbook is great in explaining everything in a fun way. The recipes are easy, fun and delicious! The photos are also amazing. A must buy for anyone looking to cook Asian food like a pro!

I love buying cookbooks. I love the pictures, the recipes, and trying new things. However, not many cookbooks have appealed to me because of their long, complicated recipes, so most of the time, these lovely cookbooks end up sitting on my shelf collecting dust.
A good friend of mine got me this for Christmas, and I literally jumped for joy when I opened the package. Jaden is one of my favorite food bloggers, and I couldn’t wait to try out her new recipes.
I feel like she gets it– who wants to spend 8 hours at work, only to come home and spend another 3 hours on dinner after stopping by the grocery to buy 50 things you didn’t have and are only going to use once? She gets that I need dinner now, I want it good, and I want it to only LOOK like I spent a lot of time on it. This book is perfect. Her recipes are fresh, fun, and very simple. I’ve made some good stuff in a dinky studio kitchen (with no oven), and my husband is happy after a long day at pharmacy school. I HIGHLY recommend it, even for your kitchen-fearing friends!
I also bought this book for a friend of mine who lives in Florida. I told her no excuses about not being to cook Asian food; if Jaden can do it, she can!

This is the best “Easy Asian” cookbook I’ve seen. One major draw for me is the fact the recipes don’t have a list of random spices/ingredients I would not use otherwise. I have most ingredients on hand, which makes these recipes very doable for “tonight’s dinner.” The photography is outstanding, some pictures actually make me salivate.
