From award-winning authors Jeffrey Alford and Naomi Duguid, this book is a glorious combination of travel and taste, presenting enticing recipes in "an odyssey rich in travel anecdote" (National Geographic Traveler).

Hot Sour Salty Sweet's more than 175 recipes are accompanied by evocative stories about places and people. The recipes and stories are gorgeously illustrated throughout with more than 150 full-color food and travel photographs.

The book invites a flexible approach to cooking and eating, for dishes from different places can be happily served and eaten together--for example:
- Thai Grilled Chicken with Hot and Sweet Dipping Sauce
- Vietnamese Green Papaya Salad and Lao Sticky Rice
- Ginger Chicken Noodle Soup
- Jungle Curry
And so much more!

In Southeast Asia, people eat for joy. Their palate is wildly eclectic and proudly unrestrained. In Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet, this great culinary region is celebrated with all the passion, color, and life that it deserves.
