From the jacket flap
This enticing book features authentic recipes from the Vietnamese community, along with their traditions and their role in enriching New Orleans culture. Author Suzanne Pfefferle became a fan of Vietnamese cuisine and an advocate of their culture after a visit to the country in 2010. She has since collaborated with the Vietnamese community and conducted research to better understand the flavors of their cuisine, along with their celebrations, which are perfectly suited for the culturally rich region of Southeast Louisiana.
Highlighting favorites such as ph and bnh m, Pfefferle takes readers on a culinary tour of family traditions, festivals, and urban farms. A delightful range of recipes is included-from Vietnamese classics supplied by family-run restaurants to Asian-inspired dishes created by chefs Emeril Lagasse and John Besh.
This pictorial guide focuses on a dynamic cuisine and the history of the local Vietnamese community following the fall of Saigon in 1975. Pfefferle showcases the flavors of family life, the seafood industry, and the annual Tt festivities. A glossary defines Vietnamese words and ingredients.
