Dewey Decimal Number: 641.59593 EAN: 9781580084628 ISBN: 1580084621 Label: Ten Speed Press Manufacturer: Ten Speed Press Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 672 Publication Date: 2002-08 Publisher: Ten Speed Press Sales Rank: 101361 Studio: Ten Speed Press Editorial Review: Beginning with an exploration of Thailand's history and culture, the book then presents an extended section on rice, the centerpiece of the Thai meal. The 'cookbook' follows, with a systematic introduction to the Thai kitchen, ingredients, and equipment. The chapter 'Food Outside the Meal' is devoted to Thai snacks and vendor food, such as Stir-Fried Crisp Fish with Holy Basil. Noodle dishes include an exemplary pad thai, and sweet dishes like Grilled Bananas with Coconut Cream and Turmeric are also offered. Readers should know that the recipes, published primarily for an Australian audience, give ingredients in a mix of metric and American measurements and/or with nonmetric equivalents, and that nomenclature is also sometimes foreign ('minced' for 'ground' meat, for example). With photos throughout, the book sets a standard for Thai cookbooks to come while helping many cooks achieve the true, richly exotic cuisine. --Arthur Boehm Related Items:
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Thai foodI am absolutely crazy about Thai cooking. Tried to make several recipes before but it did not work out (used curry sources from a bottle). Bought "Thai food" after reading a very good review of a famous Dutch gourmet and restaurant reviewer. Cooked 3 recipes so far - absolutely brilliant. The best thing is that the author offers recipes for curry pastes for every (curry) dish. A bit time consuming but tastes as good as in a Thai restaurant. Recommend to all Thai cooking lovers. Rating: - The Bible of Thai CookingI have just returned from Thailand -- eating and cooking my way from south to wayyyy north. Every cook I met recommended this book as THE definitive Thai cookbook. I ordered it and read, with considerable fascination, the history and cultural context and evolution of Thai cooking, along with outstanding recipes. You cannot go wrong with this comprehensive tome. Rating: - best thai cooking bookI work in a kitchen and i am fond of asian food, especially Thai; there are many books on the subject; this is the best, maybe because the author is one of the world's best chefs specialized in Thai cuisine. Rating:  - ComplicatedI'm no slouch in the kitchen and I've found nearly every recipe in this book astonishingly hard to make. Most of that is derived from the ridiculous lists of ingredients required to prepare every dish. It may be the most authentic Thai cookbook around, but it shouldn't require you to live in Thailand in order to make anything in it. Even in NYC it's hard to find a lot of this stuff. It probably has a lot of good recipes, but most of us will never know...
