Publishers Text

East West Food illustrates the important new culinary phenomenon of fusion or cross-cultural cuisine. Featuring ten of the world's most innovative chefs, from London to San Francisco to Melbourne, it examines the styles, influences, and techniques that have so dramatically changed the way we look at food.


Combining a wide variety of flavors and traditions, East West Food emphasizes fresh ingredients and fresh ideas, in recipes intended for home cooks. In 150 dishes, this tantalizing cookbook mixes traditions and techniques from homelands as far apart as Vietnam, Australia, and Italy and combines them with the flavors and fashions of culinary destination cities like San Francisco and London. Each chef explores fusion food in his own way, whether mixing tastes from around the world in an exciting new dish, combining foods from several countries in one menu, or adapting traditional dishes to accommodate seasonal ingredients. The result is sumptuous dishes like Blue Cheese, Avocado, and Shrimp Sushi, Green Papaya Salad, Asian Black Rice Blini Canapes, and Chocolate Chili Sorbet.


With innovative recipes, stunning photography, and advice from award-winning chefs that are shaping the world of fusion, East West Food is an inspired look at the crossing over of food styles and ingredients from around the world.


Award-winning chefs that are shaping the world of fusion cooking share their recipes and their philosophies about food in this truly original cookbook.
