Language Notes Text: Chinese, English Product Description: Famous for its exotic flavors and aromas, Thai cuisine offers culinary delights too numerous to describe. Suffice to say that the blending of the cuisines of the Chinese, Indian, Indonesian and Vietnamese cultures produces the delightful mouthwatering contrasts of sweet, sour, and hot spicy tastes. Master chef, Sukhum Kittivech, the owner of the popular Chan Dara restaurants, has selected 100 authentic and popular Thai dishes that are sure to please the palates of those who partake of the exotic dishes. Among the recipes offered are Pad Thai, Beef Panang, Shrimp & Pineapple Curry, Chicken Coconut Soup to Fried Bananas and more. Most of the recipes are very easy to follow, with special sections on frequently used ingredients, seasonings, condiments and special sauces. All recipes are accompanied by full color pictures to assist the reader in proper dish presentation. This is an essential addition to Wei-Chuan¡¦s ¡§International Cuisine Series¡¨, and a ¡§must have¡¨ to the amateur as well as serious cooking aficionado. *Reader Reviews* I received this book a couple years back as a gift from somebody who knew I liked to cook simple, fast stuff, and also knew I liked Thai food. It has turned out to be my favorite cookbook so far, with a 95% success rate for the recipes I've tried. (One recipe, I forget which one, was kind of boring.) My only previous exposure to cooking Thai food before I got this book was a class that I took that focused on Thai curries. There are not a lot of curries in this book, which is fine with me. I have tried about 25% of the recipes in the book so far, many of them 5 times or more. I do have to comment on another reviewer's review below, his review is titled "not a great cookbook." I heartily disagree. He complained that the recipes were too salty. NONE of the recipes in the book call for ANY salt! Of course most DO call for fish sauce. Not all fish sauce is the same, if your fish sauce is too salty, switch to another brand or use less of it. As an introduction to Thai cooking, this book is just great! If curries are the most important thing to you, then you can probably find a better book for yourself. There are a few curry recipes in here, and they are good, but it's not the main focus. Most of the recipes in the book only have about 3 steps, and often even these steps are very easy ones. The pictures are useful and pleasant, and the pages are glossy enough to survive being used by a messy cook such as myself. The cover itself is plastic coated too, which helps. This all makes a difference, since this is the most stained & well used cookbook of all in my collection. Back To Top
