Book description
NAMED A BEST COOKBOOK OF FALL 2023 BY BON APPETIT, FORBES, FOOD & WINE, NEW YORK MAGAZINE, EATER, and TASTING TABLE An in-depth exploration of the vibrant food and culture of Taiwan, including never-before-seen exclusive recipes and gorgeous photography. Taipei-based food journalist Clarissa Wei presents Made in Taiwan, a cookbook that celebrates the island nation's unique culinary identity--despite a refusal by the Chinese government to recognize its sovereignty. The expansive book contains deeply researched essays and more than 100 recipes inspired by the people who live in Taiwan today. For generations, Taiwanese cuisine has been miscategorized under the broad umbrella term of Chinese food. Backed with historical evidence and interviews, Wei makes a case for why Taiwanese food should get its own spotlight. Made in Taiwan includes classics like Peddler Noodles, Braised Minced Pork Belly, and Three-Cup Chicken, and features authentic, never-before-seen recipes and techniques like how to make stinky tofu from scratch and broth tips from an award-winning beef noodle soup master. Made in Taiwan is an earnest reflection of what the food is like in modern-day Taiwan from the perspective of the people who have lived there for generations. It is the story of a proud nation--a self-sufficient collective of people who continue to forge on despite unprecedented ambiguity.
