Real Vietnamese Cooking brings you to Vietnam's vibrant culinary centres, where you can pull up a kitchen chair for a family feast, order noodles from a street side stall or even sit down in a mess hall with the hungry soldiers of the South Vietnamese Army.
Real Vietnamese Cooking combines the collective culinary wisdom of three intrepid food explorers who spent many years training with Vietnam's best chefs while scouring the countryside in search of dishes few foreigners get to experience. It introduces readers to local takes on classic recipes, as well as many lesser known favourites — all made with easy-to-find ingredients.
Street eats and home-cooked delicacies that only savvy travellers know about from the streets of Saigon and the cafés of Hanoi are gathered here for the first time. This one-of-a-kind cookbook opens a new culinary window on contemporary Vietnam, exposing the full range of sweet, salty and savoury tastes to the home cook.
