The Food of Indonesia: Authentic Recipes from the Spice Islands FROM THE PUBLISHER
This collection of recipes, gathered from all corners of Indonesia, is as varied and fascinating as the Spice Islands themselves. The Food of Indonesia is much more than a cookbook, providing a broad view of the geography, culture, and lifestyles of this diverse nation. Recipes for familiar favorites such as Gado Gado, Nasi Goreng, and Satay are joined by such dishes as Sour Mango and Tuna Sambal from Ambon, Balinese Duck Curry, Spicy Pineapple Stew from Kalimantan, and Ginger Pork from northern Sulawesi.
Heinz von Holzen, food and beverage director of the Grand Hyatt Bali, trained in his native Switzerland before working in Holland, Australia and Singapore, and moving to Bali in 1990. An enthusiastic food photographer since 1987, he styled and photographed all the recipes in this volume.
