Description
Charles Phan's debut cookbook offers a comprehensive guide to traditional Vietnamese cooking, focusing on fundamental techniques and ingredients. By mastering these core elements, home cooks can create authentic yet approachable dishes.
The Slanted Door restaurant's introduction of Vietnamese food to American diners in 1995 marked a new era in culinary exploration. This cookbook builds upon that spirit, presenting a collection of recipes that blend tradition with innovation.
With clear instruction and guidance, readers can master techniques such as making perfectly crispy imperial rolls and tender steamed dumplings. The book also includes helpful resources like master recipes for stocks and sauces, a photographic guide to ingredients, and tips on choosing the right equipment.
