Authentic recipes and fascinating tales from one of China's
most vibrant culinary regions. Fuchsia Dunlop is the author of the much-loved and
critically acclaimed Sichuanese cookbook Land of Plenty,
which won the British Guild of Food Writers' Jeremy Round
Award for best first book and which critic John Thorne
called "a seminal exploration of one of China's great
regional cuisines." Now, with Revolutionary Chinese
Cookbook, she introduces us to the delicious tastes of
Hunan, Chairman Mao's home province. Hunan is renowned for the fiery spirit of its people, its
beautiful scenery, and its hearty peasant cooking. In a
selection of classic recipes interwoven with a wealth of
history, legend, and anecdote, Dunlop brings to life this
vibrant culinary region. Look for late imperial recipes like
Numbing-and-Hot Chicken, Chairman Mao's favorite Red-Braised
Pork, soothing stews, and a myriad of colorful vegetable
stir-fries. 65 color illustrations.
