Tropical Asian Cooking

Lush, fresh, and eclectic--the more than 90 recipes in this beautiful new cookbook represent the essence of the culinary tradition of tropical South and Southeast Asia. The recipes were produced in collaboration with the stellar chefs of selected Four Seasons resorts, all of whom are working on the cutting edge of tropical Asian cuisine. From sumptuous dinners to a simple breakfast for two, from barbecues to mouthwatering desserts, these dishes reflect the fascinating blend of people and cultures found in the region and manage at once to preserve and expand upon the distinctive character of indigenous dishes and ingredients. This is the perfect cookbook for home cooks seeking to explore the unique blend--and spectrum of spices and tastes--that is at the heart of Southeast Asian Cuisine.
