The Breath of a Wok, Grace Young

Asian cooking book on my wishlist.

Author: Grace Young Full title: The Breath of a Wok: Unlocking the Spirit of Chinese Wok Cooking Through Recipes and Lore

I heard about this book from a podcast featuring Grace Young. She spoke of her admiration for Julia Child.

In the podcast Grace introduced the concept of wok hay. Which is a Japanese word that describes the taste / spirt of super fresh hot food coming out of a wok.
