THE FLAVOURS OF VIETNAM

Hardcover 170 pp $34.95 235 x 170 mm 1 86395 2837

Discover the wonderful flavours of Vietnam.
Wander along Melbourne’s famous Victoria Street with Meera Freeman and ‘Vinny’ as they introduce you to the fragrant ingredients and authentic dishes of Vietnam.

Meera’s involvement with the local Vietnamese chefs and traders over the years has earned her the title ‘First Lady of Victoria Street’. This book is a culinary journey founded on her intimate knowledge of this community, her friendships, and a love of sharing good food and good conversation.

It all began with a soup called pho, ‘a magical brew’ and staple of Vietnamese cuisine, regarded to be ‘a better tonic than ten Chinese herbs’.

Fragrant broths, rice paper rolls, stir-fries, noodles … Vietnamese cuisine is the food for now- light and delicious. There are more than a hundred recipes in this definitive collection, many of which have been passed down from generation to generation. Traditional Vietnamese proverbs are woven through the text, and the book features gorgeous colour photographs of the dishes. Meera hopes that The Flavours of Vietnam will help you gain a better understanding of the wonderful cuisine and culture of Vietnam – and confidence in ordering at Vietnamese restaurants!
