Part of the KNOW ENOUGH series, Ethnic Cuisines is based on a very fundamental idea: people just don't have enough time. There is a world of food out there. Like artists produce infinite beauty with just a small palette of colors, so the nations of the world have blended ingredients, spices, and cooking methods to produce a rich and bizarre spectrum of cuisines.
When faced with this array, it might be a little confusing picking a restaurant or knowing what to order when you get there. This guide will give you a short overview of the most common and colorful cuisines from around the world, including your own back yard. You'll get to know the cultures that created these foods, the spices and ingredients they favor, and the manners and customs that might be a little different from your own. Whether you're ready for something new, or an experienced foodie, this book will help you KNOW ENOUGH before you go.
This is what the KNOW ENOUGH series brings to the rest of us; those who don't have the time to study up on everything, nor the throwaway money to experiment. In just a short “briefing” on the subject, readable in an hour or two, you will KNOW ENOUGH...
To make a decision
To have a conversation
To have an opinion
To try something new
To just show off.
