A Christmas gift that I am still working through. The author, Pauline
Nguyen, intersperses her restaurant-owning family's recipes with the
story of how they immigrated from Viet Nam after the Fall of Saigon to
Australia. It's right up my alley, catering to my love of traditional
food preparation with an immigration experience that I can relate to.
It's interesting to read recipes you already know versus ones you are
using to cook a new or foreign dish. A lot of it feels as familiar as
blood and bone, with little tweaks in flavors or preparation methods.
I'm looking forward to trying recipes that are new to me.
