Description
Simple, earthy, fiery, and fresh, Hmong food is an exciting but still little-known South Asian cuisine. In traditional Hmong culture, dishes are created and replicated not by exact measurements but by taste and experimentation— for every Hmong recipe, there are as many variations as there are Hmong cooks— and are often served to large, communal groups.
Cooking from the Heart by Sami Scripter and Sheng Yang gathers more than 100 recipes, illustrating them with colour photos of completed dishes. The authors provide descriptions of unusual ingredients and cooking techniques, making this book a valuable resource for anyone looking to explore the vibrant world of Hmong cooking.
