Corinne Trang’s The Asian Grill: Great Recipes, Bold Flavors is not about going back to basics and learning about the practical details of grilling. The book claims to venture into the flavors based on the yin-yang theme or balance between opposite flavors.
Here the fusion claims bringing eastern and western flavors to the Asian grill in 80 recipes including Cantonese roast pork sliced and rolled in scallion wraps, classic Vietnamese grilled pork sandwich, miso-marinated mackerel, and tandoori chicken.
The innovation of flavors is quite open in grilling, and in Asian grilling the spices and sauces are quite open and equally challenging in giving distinctive aroma, texture and flavor to the grilled foods.
However, adventurous Trang’s cookbook may appear to be, yet she adds to the claims of being simple in execution. Grilling with marinades has always been attractive to the BBQ lovers, but most often, the pairing of flavors is reported to be the biggest BBQ blunder.
This cookbook might appeal with its challenging balance of opposite flavors, along with opening the taste buds and culinary wisdom of the BBQ lovers to wide Asian spices and chutneys. This book is available for $14.92 at the online retail store of Amazon bookshop.
