A cookbook both useful in the kitchen and beautiful on the coffee table, Eat Real Vietnamese Food features over ninety delicious, classical Vietnamese recipes. These recipes may not be available elsewhere. Vietnamese chefs are notoriously secretive concerning their recipes, often leaving out key ingredients or steps. Each recipe is presented with clear, easy to follow, illustrated step-by-step directions as well as the historical background of the dish. This book is a high quality production: full color in hard cover format with a dust jacket. But, why do we need another Vietnamese cookbook? As award winning author Lien Nguyen, explains: "This books ambition is to be a time capsule from the middle of the last century, when Vietnamese cuisine was still influenced by French culture, and before it evolved radically with the arrival of immigrants from the North." Eat Real Vietnamese Food is a historical document, an attractive coffee table item, and a wonderful recipe book all in one.
