Why the Chinese don't count calories

"The Chinese attitude to food can be summed up in their most common greeting: 'ne chi le fan ma?' - 'Have you eaten yet?' Food prays a central part in Chinese culture: mealtimes are the high points of the day and yet studies have shown that they remain slimmer and fitter than we do in the West. Their secret is based on simple and sensible principles. Food nourishes and heals - it is not considered a source of unwanted calories." "Inspired by the endlessly enticing food, Clissold shows us how the Chinese balance their diet, satisfy their taste buds, and allow the ancient principles of Chinese thought to guide them to a wholesome and delicious way of eating. Illustrated by examples and recipes that use both Chinese and western ingredients, this book is an adventure into a little-understood cuisine."--Jacket.
