Mô tả
The Cuisine Of Việt Nam - Nourishing A Culture (Việt Nam Cultural Traveler)
have been selected from literally hundreds of food-centered pieces published over the years in
Vietnam Cultural Window
. The emphasis is thus appropriately enough on food and culture. Here you will find new recipes and few descriptions of dishes but, rather, writing which explores the meaning of culinary culture in the broader Vietnamese culture. Writing which weaves stories around dishes, memories around market places, and feelings around aromas.
Do seek out a cookbook if you also want some very practical guidance to cooking Vietnamese food or better yet, travel to the countryside, explore the markets and eat on the streets of Việt Nam, to learn more than you could imagine about food and food culture. Let this anthology be your first guide for that.
