5.0 out of 5 stars Finally! Authentic Vietnamese Food, 2 Feb 2004
By A Customer
As a Vietnamese person, I can honestly say that this is the most authentic collection of Vietnamese recipes I've ever come across. So far, all of the dishes have turned out really well, and many of them taste just like my mum's cooking. The clay pot dishes, such as braised fish, and the soups, are particularly good. The recipes for spring rolls include a very flavourful filling. Moreover, the author manages to get the balance of salty and sweet right, which is essential in Vietnamese cooking. Her dipping sauces, such as nuoc cham, are just the right balance of flavours that you would find in Vietnam.

5.0 out of 5 stars You need this book., 13 Feb 2002
By A Customer
If you don't already have it or you aren't already adept at Vietnamese cookery you need to buy it today. Since my trip to Vietnam last year I have been searching for a book which would give me a guide to the authentic flavours of the country. This book does. And it will do it for you too. Never been? On glancing through the beautiful photos of Vietnamese dishes balanced with black and white photography of the nations people you'll want too. But you don't have to, just buy the book, cook the food, turn up the central heating and look at the pictures, it's just like being there.

There aren't many books that have such an effect but Mai Pham has done it brilliantly and my hat is off to her. I have learnt a great deal about cooking in general from this book as well as the ingredients and techniques of Vietnamese cuisine.
