Thailand Life

Book and CD-ROM What makes Thai cuisine so special are the tastes. To the non-Thai palate, they can be quite startling, and quite startingly blended together. Herbs, spices, and astringents create the four important tastes: sweet, salty, sour, and hot. A perfect dish blends these together in perfect balance. The resulting cuisine is quite unique and totally unmistakable. Now make it yourself the authentic Thai way. And understand its traditional cultural background. This Cooking Companion with CD-ROM contains over 130 recipes. Favourites like Tom Yam Goong. Easy-to-make surprises like Crispy Pumpkin. Cross-cultural experiences like Spicy Prawn Pizza. Plus an adventure into the connection with luscious pictures, 3D graphics, and Thai music.
