My Vietnamese Kitchen is a collection of recipes passed down
through Uyen Luu’s family. Uyen was born in Saigon and spent her
childhood there before leaving Vietnam in the aftermath of the war.
She regularly travels back there to visit family and pick up more
classic and modern recipes for dishes found in the homes and on the
streets of Vietnam. The recipes in the book tell a story – about
Uyen’s family and the culture of food in Vietnam. In essence, the
food of her country aims to strike the perfect balance between
sweet, sour, salty, bitter, hot and umami, and to cater to any
occasion and time of day, every mood and ailment. Uyen describes
some of the most commonly used produce and guides you through
chapters such as Breakfast, Soups, Snacks, Noodles, Lunch &
Dinner and Desserts, weaving in tales of etiquette, personal
history and tradition, providing evocative photos of her travels
throughout. Popular recipes include pho soup, banh mi baguettes and
summer rolls.
