The Heritage Of Chinese Cooking by Elizabeth Chong is a 1993 hardcover cookbook that celebrates the traditions of Asian cuisine in vivid, illustrated pages. Wrapped in its original dust jacket, this vintage volume invites young adults and adults to explore authentic techniques and flavours from China’s regional kitchens.
Inside, generous colour photographs and step-by-step guidance make every recipe approachable, while Elizabeth Chong’s warm storytelling weaves culture and culinary craft together. A neat previous-owner inscription appears on the fly-leaf, adding a personal touch without claiming author signature.
The book shows its years of kitchen use: a few pages carry light marks or stains, occasional dog-eared corners hint at favourite dishes, and several recipe titles are quietly crossed through in pen. These gentle flaws keep the copy affordable for collectors and everyday cooks alike.
Despite the wear, the binding remains solid and every illustration clear, ensuring The Heritage Of Chinese Cooking stays a practical companion for anyone eager to master classic Chinese dishes at home.
