Diversity in American dining has exploded in recent years, but a lack of knowledge keeps most Americans from enjoying it fully. This handy, pocket-sized guide provides more than 1,400 detailed definitions of the more common ethnic food dishes and ingredients selected from 42 different cuisines. It's not a cookbook; rather, it explains what ethnic food words mean, and includes a pronunciation guide for most entries.
