A Must~Have for every Aspiring Cook!Review created: 05/29/08

I stumbled across this book several years back and decide to give it a try. The recipes are so straight foward, and the little stories and memoirs sprinkled throughout really take you to a different culture. The recipes I make from "Seductions of Rice" have become so popular with my friends that I am constantly bombarded with request for certian dishes to bring to work or the next picnic. Even if the some of the ingriedients are a little foriegn to you (not a fan of tofu? Nori?) they are all easily substituted, and for the vegans out there, the meat dishes are very easily made vegetarian. I've given away several copies as housewarming gifts to my vegetarian friends, with a set of rice bowls, and months later they were still opening "Seductions of Rice" first to plan out dinner. It is one of my favorites, and I consider it to be an essential cookbook on anyone's shelf, whether you are a novice college student with one pot and a single wooden spoon, or a seasoned chef with your pick of Cuisinart, there is something in here for everyone, and the book will "grow" with your technique. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I have. Happy Feasting.

I enjoyed this book. I liked its informative aspects on the cultures who use rice, as well as for the history of various types of rice. I liked the fact that with the recipes, I was able to taste firsthand what the authors had experienced in their travels. Good going in sharing it all with us.
I'd recommend this book for those wanting a taste of the exotic, and a bit of reading. Though, I still would prefer joining them in their adventure to reading about it myself. How about you?
I would have liked more recipes for the price of the book.
I liked their book called, "Mangoes and Curry Leaves" better. Photographs make all the difference. Not enough pics in the Rice book for my wants. But, I recommend it all the same....enjoy!
