Classic Straits Chinese Food cover

The Straits Chinese (or Peranakans) are a distinct group of people whose culture is characterised by a blend of ancient Chinese and Malay traditions and practises. Through the years, their cuisine has evolved, incorporating several influences by Indonesian, Thai, Indian and colonial people. Rich with aromatic herbs and spices, and tropical produce such as coconut and pineapple, the recipes featured in this cookbook are time-tested classics. "Classic Straits Chinese Food" is more than just an ordinary cookbook. It will introduce the reader to an ancient, multi-cultural cuisine and allow them to experience the unique taste of a part of Southeast Asia.
