Food Of Southeast Asia In Words & Pictures.

Ricelands: The World of South-east Asian Food by Michael Freeman sees award-winning photographer and writer Michael Freeman explore South-East cuisine in this comprehensive and beautifully illustrated guide.

  • "Ricelands" takes the reader on a colourful and engaging tour through the richly layered food cultures of the region.
  • Travelling across the landscapes of Thailand, Vietnam, Burma, Cambodia, Malaysia, Laos, Indonesia and the Philippines, Freeman explores the origins and defining characteristics of their respective cuisines, and their evolution as they entered foreign cultures.
  • From birds' nests gathered in Thailand's coastal caves to the less familiar dishes of Burma and Cambodia, to the pungent durian fruit (and Westerners' often aghast reactions).
  • This book unearths unexpected treasures and tantalizing facts about Southeast Asia and its social history.
  • Also examines the cooking techniques, complex spices, and agricultural economies that underpin the countries' food cultures.
  • While considering how the informal nature of southeast Asian eating fits into the rhythms of modern-day living.
  • A vibrantly illustrated and wide-ranging study, taking you into the heart of tropical Asia and the delicious foods that define it the world over.
