The New Internationalist Food Book
Piquant Recipes from Africa, Asia and Latin America for Western Kitchens with Country Information and Food Facts
by Troth Wells

"Few books do so well at linking the everyday pleasures of food with larger issues."
Joanne Kates, author and critic
"I love The New Internationalist Food Book! A mouth-watering taste of the amazingly diverse cultures of our small planet."
Frances Moore Lappe
author of Diet for a Small Planet

Some of the best cooking in the world goes on quietly, day after day, in the hills of the Andes and the villages of Africa, on the steamy slopes of South East Asia and the plains of India. Now, in the unique New Internationalist Food Book some of the world's tastiest dishes come to you. From appetizers and snacks to desserts and drinks, the Food Book brings a range of meals which celebrate the wholesome food cooked over fires, stirred in pots, sprinkled with spices and enjoyed by ordinary people in Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.

Beautiful photographs complement delicious recipes, factual information about the countries from which they originate and details about how food is produced and distributed. Compiled by the world renowned New Internationalist magazine which regularly produces material for the United Nations, this exciting cookbook has been highly acclaimed.
