Book Description
Filipino food, influenced by over 300 years of Chinese, Hispanic and American culinary techniques, is one of the most vibrant and intriguing cuisines in Asia. A tantalizing concoction of textures, flavors and colors, these popular Filipino recipes range from national dishes such as adobo, to the spicy dishes of the Bicol region. Genuine native artwork and a detailed description of life in the Philippines distinguish this title from other ethnic cookbooks. With all of the dishes and ingredients vividly photographed, you'll know just what to expect when preparing these exotic delicacies.
About the Author
In addition to managing his own catering company, Reynaldo G. Alejandro works as an author, lecturer and professional cook. He lives in New York City.
Photographer Luca Invernizzi Tettoni photographs a wide range of subjects including food, architecture and gardens.
Reader Reviews
I'm not sure what the other reviewer meant by the book not covering traditional Filipino food he's known. This was lovingly put together by Philippine-born Filipinos famous for their work in documenting authentic Filipino cuisine... very unlike other cookbooks whose writers only parachute into the country, if at all, and compile recipes for publication. True, it's not a typical cookbook that focuses solely on recipes. The first ten or so pages are essays. Its value is not only in the beautiful photographs, but also in the substantial background it provides for Filipino food. What a deal at $12! You can preview the book above with Amazon's "Search inside this book" feature. The reviews of the edition that came out in 1999 are here: The Food of the Philippines: Authentic Recipes from the Pearl of the Orient.
