- Summary:
- "In this beautifully designed guide to Vietnamese home cooking and comfort food, Anne-Solenne Hatte presents mouth-watering recipes collected by Bà, her maternal grandmother. These family recipes have been passed down from generation to generation and have withstood the test of time - and exile. As Bà journeyed from the rice fields in Hanoi to Washington, D.C., and France, she stayed true to her culinary heritage and learned to work around unavailable items and adapt to new ingredients. Gathered here are sixty classic recipes for many variations of pho, quick pickled vegetables, robust salads, grilled and stir-fry meats, and Franco-Vietnamese fusion dishes like trendy banh mi sandwiches, as well as the cuisine's building blocks - base recipes and "mother" sauces. Tasting Vietnam is not only a celebration of a unique cuisine with emphasis on fresh ingredients, bright flavor combinations, zesty sauces, and reputation for healthfulness, it is also an homage to Bà's event-filled life and memories of home. Expertly detailed yet accessible recipes are intertwined with anecdotes and personal photographs to bring to life the story of an exceptional woman and the rich culinary traditions of vietnam" -- Back cover.
