This Kindle book is a a print-exact replica of a high quality full color in hard cover format with a dust jacket. But, why do we need another Vietnamese cookbook? The author, award winning cookbook writer Lien Nguyen, This book started as a quiet, seemingly innocuous a few years ago, I decided to learn more about Vietnamese cooking, because, after all, it is my cultural heritage, and I also love to eat! My mother had an extensive collection of recipes, some neatly gathered in a notebook, but most scribbled on loose sheets of paper, often presenting several conflicting versions of the same dish. So, I decided to sort it out and write down those she thought were the best version for each of her specialties. Any undertaking of mine has a tendency toward mission creep, as my husband will readily tell you, and this one was no exception. As I moved along, this book evolved into a project immortalizing a disappearing cuisine and a disappearing way of life. We decided to focus on my moms domain of Vietnamese food from the early 50s. Vietnam has had a long, restless history, and the 20th century was particularly turbulent. These difficult, troubled times made the 50s of particular interest in the culinary in those years, many Vietnamese people emigrated from the North (including my fathers family) and settled in the South, bringing with them, among other things, different ways of cooking and eating. They didnt always have access to authentic Southern old classics were modified, sometimes happily reinterpreted, sometimes badly misunderstood. Later in the century, more changes followed with the American presence, and yet more with the new affluence of peacetime. This books ambition is to be a time capsule from the middle of the last century, when Vietnamese cuisine was still influenced by French culture, and before it evolved radically with the arrival of immigrants from the North. I might be partial, but I feel that the cuisine of that time is particularly refined and worthy of being preserved. It is part of my parents cultural legacy and, for me, it is the classic cuisine of Vietnam. Eat Real Vietnamese Food presents recipes in two-page spread story board format. A full color, mouth watering photo of the finished dish along with an ingredients list and some historical information appears on the left page, and the detailed, illustrated step-by-step directions are found on the right.
