Vietnam: The Cookbook

The tasty cookbook "Vietnam: The Cookbook" is the ultimate celebration of Vietnamese cuisine, featuring 445 beloved traditional dishes from home kitchens across the country. Author Anaïs Ca Dao van Manen traveled across the country, from the busy streets of Hanoi to the highlands of Hà Giang, to learn from local chefs, discover unique ingredients and master classic techniques.

Vietnamese food is more than just pho and bánh mì; it is a rich and diverse tapestry of flavors, techniques and customs. The book "Vietnam: The Cookbook" is a definitive in-depth dive into this vibrant cuisine, featuring more than 400 authentic home cooking recipes - each faithfully recorded, rigorously tested and presented with clear, step-by-step directions.

Arranged according to the method and style in which they are traditionally prepared and eaten, the recipes range from appetizers, snacks, salads and sandwiches to grilled dishes, stir-fries, wraps and sandwiches, casseroles, noodles, rice, broths and desserts, as well as pickles, sauces and other pantry staples. Dishes include familiar favorites, such as summer rolls and grilled pork with Vermicelli, in addition to lesser-known gems, such as chicken and banana blossom salad, savory sticky rice and mung bean dumplings, sauteed baby cockles with rice crackers, coconut pandan and fried palm sugar honeycomb cake.
