Vietnamese Cuisine is a comprehensive culinary guide, covering: Utensils (woks and steamers); Techniques (chopping and tying herbs); Ingredients; Histories; Regional foods and maps; Etiquette; Traditional and holiday meals. And answers these important questions: What flavour harmonies does a Vietnamese meal comprise?; What are the everyday favourites?; What are the holiday meals?; What are the traditional herbs and spices and where do you find them?; What is “pho” and why is it a popular restaurant dish? And don’t forget the delicious recipes: Vietnamese sauces and condiments, spring rolls and cool rolls, beef noodle soups, duck and caramelized pork dishes, coconut milk flan. All in a handsomely illustrated volume that will be your introduction to a great cuisine.
