Sinopsis

"Crossroads cooking" -- very different from self-conscious "fusion" or a "melting pot" that blurs the identity of its ingredients -- is the happenstance meeting and mating of traditions, thereby creating cuisines both diverse and distract. Crossroads Cooking takes us across all five continents, through the history -- and onto the tables -- of dramatic crossroads from Singapore, Israel, and the Balkans to Franco-German Alsace, Creole New Orleans, the Philippines, and the Caribbean. Thailand has absorbed both India's robust spices and China's delicate textures and refashioned them with Malaysian coconut, lemongrass, and fish sauce in its own image. In South Africa, Dutch food went native in an unlikely alliance with Malaysian, Indian, and African. The flavorful food of Turkey or Afghanistan is a multi-ethnic legacy of Silk Road conquerors, merchants, and pilgrims. Crossroads Cooking's 200 recipes display these hybrid cuisines at their richest and most rampant.
