Acclaimed novelist Kim Thuy combines her beautiful storytelling style with simple and wonderful recipes that are full of flavour surprising yet comforting, and easy enough for every day. Welcoming us into her closeknit circle, she introduces us to her mother and five aunts, each with her story, each with her secrets, told through the food of the country they had to leave, Vietnam. Starting with easilyprepared base ingredients of sauces, quick pickled vegetables and toasted rice flour, we move on to soups, sautes, vegetables, grilled foods, desserts and more. Sample recipes include Stuffed Squash Soup Vermicelli Bowls Caramel Pork Calamari, Pork and Pineapple Stirfry Fried Lemongrass Fish and Vietnamese Tapioca and Banana.
