Publishers Text

Winner of the Andre Simon Award 1993

Named one of OFM's 50 Best Cookbooks of all time

The Rice Book became an instant classic when it was published almost thirty years ago, and to this day remains the definitive book on the subject.

Rice is the staple food for more than half the world, and the creativity with which people approach this humble grain knows no bounds. From renowned food writer Sri Owen's extensive travels and years of research come recipes for biryanis, risottos, pilafs and paellas from Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, Korea, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Spain, Italy, Brazil and beyond.

In a gorgeous new livery, with a new foreword by Bee Wilson and a fully updated introduction on the nutrition, history and culture surrounding rice, more than 160 delicious, foolproof recipes (20 of them new) and beautiful illustrations throughout, this is an essential book for every kitchen and every cook.
