Читать книгу Tropical Asian Cooking - Wendy Hutton - Страница 6

foreword by nobuyuki matsuhisa

This book truly represents the contemporary flavors of tropical South and Southeast Asia today. It is unashamedly Asian without being traditional—reflecting the fascinating blend of peoples and cultures found in the region. What is particularly fascinating to me is the interaction between the cuisines—the new combinations that arise, combining and yet preserving the distinctive character and strength of the indigenous dishes and ingredients.

This modern, fresh approach to Asian cooking is the kind of food I love—honest food that is easy to put together and guaranteed to please. I have been fortunate to cook at several of the Four Seasons hotels throughout Asia, swapping tips with chefs who hail from every corner of the region. Herewith are presented a selection of their best recipes that are absolutely perfect for every occasion—from a simple breakfast for two, to an alfresco picnic or barbecue, to an elegant dinner party with friends at home.
