Fusion Food Cookbook - Tapa dura

Fusion Food Cookbook celebrates the new American cuisine, in which distinctive seasonings and cooking styles from Asia, Mexico, the American Southwest, New Orleans, the Caribbean, and the Mediterranean are incorporated into familiar home cooking. Highlighting the vivid flavors of these diverse ethnic and regional traditions, author Hugh Carpenter and Teri Sandison define a major new trend in American cooking, showing us how to mix and match seasonings and cooking techniques and encouraging us to be more creative in our own cooking.

The 150 flavor-intense recipes in Fusion Rood Cookbook require no hard-to-find ingredients or special equipment. Recipe instructions are divided into "Advance Preparation" and "Last Minute Cooking," indicate whether the recipe is "easy," "moderate," or "challenging," and include suggested menus and entertainment ideas. More than 100 color photographs by acclaimed food and wine photographer Teri Sandison capture the vivid colors and cross-cultural style of the inspired recipes.
