Chef and cookbook author Ken Hom prepares a dish in this undated handout photo. To learn Chinese cooking, it helps to understand the concept of yin and yang. Meals, typically shared with others, should aim for a balance among a variety of ingredients: some are considered cooling foods (yin), others are heating foods (yang). Such a yin-and-yang approach to cooking helps define Chinese cuisine and explains why it is relatively healthy, according to a new book by chef and television presenter Hom. His book, "Complete Chinese Cookbook," surveys food from Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine to the more grain-based Northern School.
