Do you enjoy eating Vietnamese food?

Here in Southern California, there are many Vietnamese restaurants and grocery stores that specialize in this type of food. There is a section of Orange County known as Little Saigon where I like to shop. The grocery stores tend to have an emphasis on fresh foods at great prices.

Like other cookbooks from Robert Rose, this one is user friendly for novices to Vietnamese cooking and more advanced cooks. There are plenty of extra tips to help first timers get it right.

Here are a few of the 135 recipes you’ll find in the book:

  • Lemongrass Shrimp
  • Fried Spring Rolls
  • Crab and Asparagus Soup
  • Sliced Cucumber Salad
  • Sticky Rice

Simply Vietnamese Cooking

isbn 978-0778805212
Pub. date 7/30/15

Description: “Bright, delicate and satisfying, the cuisine of Vietnam is absolutely delicious due to the wonderful contrasts this cuisine contains: sour favors are balanced by salty ones, and sweet notes are answered by a little heat from ground pepper and chillies. Nancie’s easy and expert recipes will help cooks make an array of traditional dishes with widely available ingredients. There are speedy stir-fries, vibrant salads, and soothing soups, along with numerous recipes for cooking meat and seafood on the grill.”

    This would be so nice to have. I was just looking for some Vietnamese recipes online. This would help a lot.

    Thanks, I like eating at Vietnamese restaurants, being able to cook it at home would be great!

    I just want to show my mom that I can learn to cook Vietnamese food since she’s the chef.

    I love trying new recipes from around the world. I belong to an Around the World Dinner group and we have a meal each month from another country or state that we make from scratch. This would fit right in!

    Since I know absolutely nothing about Vietnamese cooking at the moment, I’d love to get educated and try some of the recipes.

    I make Pho at home all the time but use a boxed soup base that is hard to find. I would love to learn how to make the broth from scratch.

    I love cooking and have a decent cookbook collection but shockingly, not one book about Vietnamese cooking which is one of my fav cuisines. Ive just been so nervous about cooking it authentically.
