SUMMARY:Slow Books: Invitation to A Banquet\, by Fuchsia Dunlop
DESCRIPTION:Our Slow Boods group is currently full\, but please enjoy reading along with us. \nDECEMBER SELECTION: Invitation to A Banquet: The Story of Chinese Food\, by Fuchsia Dunlop \n\nChinese was the earliest truly global cuisine. When the first Chinese laborers began to settle abroad\, restaurants appeared in their wake. Yet Chinese has the curious distinction of being both one of the world’s best-loved culinary traditions and one of the least understood. For more than a century\, the overwhelming dominance of a simplified form of Cantonese cooking ensured that few foreigners experienced anything of its richness and sophistication—but today that is beginning to change. \n\n\nIn Invitation to a Banquet\, award-winning cook and writer Fuchsia Dunlop explores the history\, philosophy\, and techniques of Chinese culinary culture. In each chapter\, she examines a classic dish\, from mapo tofu to Dongpo pork\, knife-scraped noodles to braised pomelo pith\, to reveal a distinctive aspect of Chinese gastronomy\, whether it’s the importance of the soybean\, the lure of exotic ingredients\, or the history of Buddhist vegetarian cuisine.  \n\n\nMeeting food producers\, chefs\, gourmets\, and home cooks as she tastes her way across the country\, Fuchsia invites readers to join her on an unforgettable journey into Chinese food as it is cooked\, eaten\, and considered in its homeland.
