If you ever needed a cookbook, THIS is the one to get. It is broken down so beautifully that it brought me such happiness. Let me explain further...

There are the normal "cooking basics" in all cookbooks. Now comes the beauty of it all. The lists are broken down to Eggs and Tofu (plus sub-categories such as modern scrambled, fry, hard-cooked and soft cooked, etc), Vegetables (sub-categories such as Basic-not-boring boiled and steamed vegetable, simply sauteed, pan-roasting, etc), the list goes on and you get the gist of it.

This is a cookbook that I will enjoy and I deem it "it should be a classic staple" to all those who cook.
