Description

Food of Northern Thailand is a gorgeous deep dive into the regional cuisine of northern Thailand with a documentarian’s approach and a photographer’s eye.

The food of northern Thailand is a world away from the highly refined, royal court- and Chinese-influenced style of cooking in Bangkok–the Thai food that most of us are conversant in. It is a cuisine with its own distinct identity, one that may be rustic and earthy, meaty and fragrant; one with roots in the Thai repertoire but with branches that extend into unfamiliar areas; a cuisine that feels ancient, but is ever evolving.
    A creator, photographer, and go back and forth-guide creator, Austin Bush has lived in Thailand for almost 20 years. In this book, Bush travels across northern Thailand to talk to the region’s home cooks, academics, restaurateurs, writers, and hawkers. Their recipes and stories, together with Bush’s photographs, capture the people, countryside, markets, and naturally, dishes and cooking techniques of northern Thailand. Each and every of the chapters in the book will focus on a single province, giving a snapshot of the dishes, staple ingredients, cooking methods, and people specific to that area.
