Fine Filipino Food Kindle Edition
travels to this country at the crossroads of the Pacific Ocean and the
South China and Sulu seas, FINE FILIPINO FOOD is a testament to a rich
mix of cultures. Chinese traders introduced stir-frying and
deep-frying cooking techniques, as well as noodles and soy products;
Malaysian spice traders brought seasonings from the Spice Islands and
introduced that delectable appetizer, satay; Spanish colonization
brought Spanish cuisine: Adobo (a pickling sauce made from olive oil,
vinegar, garlic, oregano, paprika, thyme, bay leaf, and salt),
arguably the best-known Filipino dish, is a by-product of both Spanish
and Chinese influence. Finally, the American influence left the
legacies of speed and convenience.
Enjoy this blend of cuisines with its 19 cooking methods, such as
stir-frying, deep-frying, grilling on skewers, sautéing in coconut
milk, marinating in vinegar and spices, broiling over live charcoal,
wrapping in banana leaves, and steaming. Fine Filipino Food features
205 recipes, a glossary of ingredients, a guide to ingredient
substitutions, and an extensive resource guide, which allow all home
cooks to perfectly recreate these tantalizing dishes.

About the authors

Author of the Trans-Pecos, Sacred Emblem, Sacred Journey, and Sacred Messenger series, as well as Kissing Kin, Fox Tale, Wild Rose Pass, The Keys: Voice of the Turtle, and others, Karen is a best-selling author, motivational keynote speaker, IT technical editor, wife, and all-around pilgrim of life. She writes multicultural, offbeat love stories steeped in the supernatural that lift the spirit. Born to rolling-stone parents who moved annually, Bartell found her earliest playmates as fictional friends in books. Paperbacks became her portable pals. Ghost stories kept her up at night—reading feverishly. The paranormal was her passion. Novels offered an imaginative escape. An only child, she began writing her first novel at the age of nine, learning the joy of creating her own happy endings. Professor emeritus of the University of Texas at Austin, Karen resides in the Piney Woods with her husband and her mews—three rescued cats and a rescued *Cat*ahoula Leopard dog.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
There were some recipes that were easy to follow but most of them required ingredients that one must search diligently for.
For those that have an interest in unfamiliar cuisines, this is a worthwhile read. The absence of pictures in a cookbook is a real handicap, though. It is a tremendous help to know what a dish should look like and taste like when it is done. For more familiar cuisines that's not as big a problem -- for totally unfamiliar dishes, it is.
