Thai Food Summary

Thai Food by David Thompson

Thai Food gives the most comprehensive account of this ancient and exotic cuisine ever published in English. David Thompson shares his passion for the unique style of cooking that he believes to be one of the world's greatest cuisines.

Michelin-starred chef David Thompson shares his passion for the unique style of cooking that he believes to be one of the world's greatest cuisines. He provides over 300 mouthwatering recipes, from the simple, honest flavour of a classic pad thai or the refreshing tang of a Green Papaya Salad to such elaborate creations as Green Curry of Trout Dumplings with Apple Eggplants or Stir-fried Crispy Fish Cakes with Pork and Salted Eggs. A series of introductory chapters examine the role of food in Thai culture and society, offer guidance on ingredients, with notes on availability and substitutions, and explain the essential techniques of Thai cookery. More than 50 menus provide ideas for combining Thai dishes. Beautifully written, and complimented by superb photography, this book captures all aspects of this diverse culinary culture.

Thai Food Reviews

'The definitive guide to a cuisine that offers far more than fishcakes and green curry.'

* Waitrose Weekend *

'What I love about this book is the way it is so uncompromising. It's classic Thai cooking... I think it will end up being an important historical record of Thai cooking.'

-- Nigel Slater * Fivebooks.com, 'Best Cookbooks of All Time' *
