Thai Food
by David Thompson
Renowned chef David Thompson first went to Thailand by mistake: a holiday
plan had to be changed at the last minute, and he ended up in Bangkok,
where he was seduced by the people, culture, and cuisine. Since that fateful
trip some 20 years ago, Thailand has become David’s second home. Working
alongside cooks who perfected their craft in the Thai royal palaces, he
began to document the traditional recipes and culinary techniques that
have been handed down from generation to generation. The result is THAI
FOOD, the most comprehensive account of this ancient and exotic cuisine
ever published in English. David writes about Thailand and its food with
an easy erudition, encouraging readers to cook and experiment, while simultaneously
fostering a respect for the food and its stewardship through the ages.
Although all the classic, well-loved recipes are here, this magnum opus
features hundreds of lesser-known but equally authentic and delicious Thai
dishes that will inspire cooks to go beyond green curry chicken and Thai
fish cakes. David’s passion and conviction are infectious; complemented
by Earl Carter’s superb photography, THAI FOOD captures all aspects of
the dynamic Thai culture and cuisine.142 pages. List price $40.00.
