'I started stitching together my story through a different universal language: food.' An A-Z of Chinese Food (Recipes Not Included) is not a recipe book but a deliberate 'anti-glossary' - a delectable edible anthology that serves up Chinese flavour beyond just its taste. Jenny Lau always found herself sitting between cultures connected to both east and west. Hungry to understand herself she threw herself into researching the Chinese food of her heritage. The result is An A-Z of Chinese Food - a surprising unputdownable and deliciously enriching anthology that uses food to explore who we are and how we relate to the world. From A is for Authentic breaking down our assumptions of who 'owns' what cuisine to R is for Rice Cooker a humorous entry from the point of view a hard-working kitchen appliance that has seen a family through its ups and downs An A-Z of Chinese Food will change the way you think about see and eat food.
