Thailand,
the Beautiful Cookbook: Authentic Recipes from the Regions of
Thailand, Vol. 1
Panurat Poladitmontri, Judy Lew English
language
Number of customer reviews: 2 from Barnesandnoble
A reviewer, a past Peace Corps Volunteer,

Real Thai Food
Having lived in Thailand for two years I wanted
to find a book that gave authentic recipies. This book not only gives this,
but does it with wonderful photography. When you are not using it, the book
still makes a beautiful 'coffee table' book
Dawn, a lover of great food., January 20,
1999,
I fell in love with this book even before
I went to Thailand
Cooking Thai food is definately for the advanced
cook. This book gives such a beautiful representation of the wonderful flavors
and regions of Thailand. I love Thai food and many cookbooks don't warrant
a buy. Get over the sticker price -- it's well worth it! I have the whole
series and this one is my favorite. I enjoyed the cookbook even more after
I travelled through Thailand. And don't try to substitute Thai ingedients
that are vital to the recipe. (like Italian basil for Thai basil). It's
a totally different flavor!

Contains the best Pad Thai recipe we have
ever enjoyed!, May 1, 2000
Reviewer: dvons from Seattle
My husband and I love the recipes in this book! We
have finally found the perfect Pad Thai recipe in this book after searching
for about 5 years.
The price of this book is a little on the steep side
but if you consider how much it costs to go out to Thai you can make back
the price in 3 meals or less. The price was our deterrent before we purchase
this book but now that we have it we can't stop using it. The wonderful
photography and glossary are added bonuses.
The food is perfect in spiciness all though I am sure
others would suggest adding more chilis. One of our other favorites is
the green chili crab dish. I made this for my in-laws and it received
rave reviews. Being from Seattle, we especially enjoy all the seafood
dishes.
Enjoy this book because it is a feast for they eyes
and stomach.

Desert island Thai, June 8, 2000
Reviewer: Greg Alder from Mexico
When I moved to Mexico two years ago, I was forced
to accept that it would be impractical to bring my library. So I spent
a few hours looking at the volumes on the shelves to select the 20 or
so books I felt I absolutely HAD to have with me. One of those books was
Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook. Most of the time I open it, it's to find
something to satisfy my craving for the sweet, pungent, rich and exotic
flavours of Thai food. But other times I've simply lost myself in memories
of a beautiful country - memories brought back by the stunningly evocative
photographs which fill this book. Thai restaurants here in Mexico seem
to be nothing more than a rumour. But Thai ingredients (or serviceable
substitutes) are reasonably easy to buy. I have cooked from this book
frequently for Mexican friends. Every one of them has been bowled over
by flavours packed into the dishes placed in front of them. And if that's
the response you want when you cook for friends, then I suggest you buy
this book. For me, a Thai food fanatic a long way from Asia, it is essential.

A Breathtaking, Beautiful Pictorial with Brilliant
Dishes
I bought this book for my husband because I was traveling
a lot, he loved Thai food and he needed to learn to cook. Little did I
know what a gorgeous book it would be. My husband, who has lived in Thailand,
tells me the recipes are authentic and easy to prepare (if you find fresh
ingredients). He found this "cookbook" so yummy that he left me and opened
a Thai restaurant in Australia. BUY THIS BOOK. . . BUT KEEP IT FOR YOURSELF!!!!!
A reader , 17 June, 1997
No better book on Thai cooking than this!
I travel to Thailand EVERY year and have ached to find
a REAL book on authentic Thai cooking. My son is Thai and he also RAVES
about this book. In addition to some sophisticated recipes, it also has
recipes for some street vendor food that I have not been able to find
anywhere. (The recipe for Moo Yang is great.) If you want one comprehensive
book on Thai cooking, this is it!

Reviewer: laum@ac.grin.edu

James McNair's South East Asian cook book has a great selection of recipes
from countries like Malaysia, Thailand,and Vietnam among others. The illustrations
in the book are beautiful. Recipe's are easy to follow and very helpful.
There are sections on the basics of South East Asian cooking, shopping guide
for ingredients and useful equivalency tables. Each recipe is also preceded
by a synopsis of the background of the dish. I highly recommend the book!

James McNair scores again...,
February 10, 2000
Reviewer: A reader
from Dunwoody, GA
After I got my wife hooked on Thai food she bought me a cookbook that was
loosely translated from Chinese. Didn't work too well. I picked up James
McNair's Southeast Asian book and love it. Like all of the other McNair
volumes I own, I can start off with an easier recipe and work up to harder
ones as my particular skills and confidences increase. You can't go wrong
with this or any of McNair's books!

Thai Cooking
Kurt Kahrs English language
Number of Reviews: 2 as shown below.
Prpse@webtv.net /Tab Hall from New York,United States , 9 April, 1999
Excellent
Kurt Kahrs has done an excellent job with this cookbook. Not only are the
recipes easy to follow but they are also delicious.The book is informative
and translates well to those of us who are not familiar with Thai cuisine.
I would reccomend it to anyone who loves to cook!
Hugh Stafford <handl@ma.ultranet.com> from England originally, now
USA , 31 March, 1999
Who would have thought it
But this book by someone obviously of non-Thai nationality is an excellent
guide to this cuisine. The book is clear and packed with great recipes,
their authentication proven by the quantity of chilies and garlic used,
as well as the wonderful dishes that can be produced. All becomes more understandable
when the sleeve cover reveals that he cooked at a Bangkok hotel for many
years.

Best thai cookbook that
I have used, December 2, 1999
Reviewer: Jim Parent from
Orinda
I have used a number of thai cookbooks, but keep coming back to this one.
The recipes are well written, and the pictures give the user a good idea
of what the final dish should look like. The recipes are a "can't miss".

Narrow focus, limited
value, August 6, 2000
Reviewer: A reader
from Baltimore, USA
A narrowly focused book with little to add to most run of the mill Thai
cookery books. There are better texts on the market and I am afraid that
I found this unchallenging and really a waste of money. My advice - if you
are a keen Thai cook then look elsewhere.
