The Rice Book by Sri Owen
The Rice Book is a must for every cook and anyone who is seriously interested in food. A brilliant cookbook, it is also the definitive encyclopedia of rice. The first part of the book covers the many varieties of rice; the nutritional value; its history and agriculture; the cults, cultures and myths which have grown up around it; and its importance through the ages. The second part is a comprehensive directory of nearly 200 recipes from as far afield as Afghanistan, the Philippines, Latin America, Korea, Iran, the Camargue, Japan, Russia and Louisiana.'This diversity - there are more than 7,000 kinds of rice, varying in texture, colour, taste and shape - can be mind-bogglingSri Owen's Rice Book is a welcome window into this complex world.'
Sri Owen is a highly respected cook, a popular lecturer and the author of several award-winning cookbooks, including Indonesian Regional Food and Cookery, which was awarded the Langhe Ceretto Prize for the best recipe book and was shortlisted for a Julia Child Award. She lives in London.
