Phoenix Claws and Jade Trees by Kian Lam Kho

When Kian Lam Kho moved to the United States from Singapore, he couldn’t find a decent Chinese cookbook in English. So he began to write home, relying on an assortment of aunties and other relatives to compile the grandma cookbook he needed. Many years later, he brought that same spirit to Phoenix Claws and Jade Trees, giving the American home cook an invaluable reference work for the backbone of technique undergirding the many and varied forms of Chinese regional cuisine. With an entire chapter on “The Making of Hearty Soups,” Phoenix Claws —and the aunties and grandmas on whose shoulders it stands—has your back until spring.
