For so many people, rice is uniquely comforting. Its position at the heart of so many South East Asian meals makes it unique in people's associations with home and heritage.

 

Chef Ping Coombes describes rice as the sun around which all other dishes orbit in Malaysian cuisine. For hordes of us around the world, it's synonymous with bowl food of the most comforting kind and is therefore a staple at the dinner table. It can be its own hero dish, or it can accompany myriad others. It absorbs flavours, is filling and can be savoury or sweet. It's truly a unique ingredient with huge cultural significance.

 

Ping opens up a world of rice in this beautiful homage, full of both recipes and insights: to wash or not to wash rice; ways to cook rice; when rice is not rice (rice cakes and rolls!); how to elevate your rice-eating experience. And 100 recipes that will transform the way you cook and eat rice.

Her Malaysian recipes are frequently featured in titles including delicious, Good Food and Waitrose Weekend, and she has given talks on TED and The World Economic Forum.

An Incredible Resource
Format: Hardcover
The author has a wealth of knowledge about wildlife gained through his education, his work as a naturalist in Yellowstone National Park, his observations as a wildlife sculptor and the time he spends in Yellowstone for the sheer enjoyment of watching the animals. The concept of learning how animals communicate with each other is fascinating. Bumann shares his knowledge from his observations in an entertaining and fascinating way. Obviously, he has a love of the animals and a love of what he does. What a gifted author!
