Into the Vietnamese Kitchen by Andrea Nguyen
An intimate collection of more than 175 of the finest Vietnamese recipes. When author Andrea Nguyen's family was airlifted out of Saigon in 1975, one of the few belongings that her mother hurriedly packed for the journey was her small orange notebook of recipes. Thirty years later, Nguyen has written her own intimate collection of recipes, Into the Vietnamese Kitchen, an ambitious debut cookbook that chronicles the food traditions of her native country. Robustly flavored yet delicate, sophisticated yet simple, the recipes include steamy pho noodle soups infused with the aromas of fresh herbs and lime; rich clay-pot preparations of catfish, chicken, and pork; classic b nh m sandwiches; and an array of Vietnamese charcuterie. Nguyen helps readers shop for essential ingredients, master core cooking techniques, and prepare and serve satisfying meals, whether for two on a weeknight or 12 on a weekend.Andrea Nguyen is a San Francisco Bay Area-based author, teacher, and consultant. She was born in Vietnam and moved to the United States when she was six years old. Andrea's food writing has featured in publications such as the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, Saveur, and Rodale's Organic Living, where she also contributes as a contributing editor.
