Description
Meatless Vietnamese cooking for vegetarians and omnivores alike.
In the years he spent living and cooking in Vietnam, Cameron Stauch learned about a tradition of vegetarian Vietnamese cuisine that may be light and filled with flavor. In response to recipes devised over centuries by Mahayana Buddhist monks, the dishes in Vegetarian Việt Nam make use of the whole arsenal of Vietnamese herbs and sauces to make tofu, mushrooms, and vegetables burst with flavor like never before.
With a lavishly illustrated word list that is helping you realize the mushrooms, noodles, fruits, and vegetables that make up the vegetarian Vietnamese pantry, Vegetarian Việt Nam will free up a complete universe of flavor to those that want healthy, tasty, and sustainable food.
