"Recipes from My Vietnamese Kitchen" is a compilation of recipes handed down through Uyen Luu's family lineage.
Born in Saigon, Uyen spent her early years there before emigrating from Vietnam post-war. She makes frequent trips back to gather both traditional and contemporary recipes for dishes that are staples in Vietnamese homes and street fare. The book's recipes narrate the tale of Uyen's family and Vietnam's culinary culture. Essentially, Vietnamese cuisine seeks to harmoniously blend sweet, sour, salty, bitter, spicy, and umami flavors, suitable for any event, time, mood, or health condition. Uyen introduces some of the most essential ingredients and navigates you through sections like Breakfast, Soups, Snacks, Noodles, Lunch & Dinner, and Sweets, interspersing stories of customs, her personal journey, and cultural traditions, accompanied by vivid photographs from her visits.
