An chua? (Did you eat, yet?) is a common Vietnamese greeting that expresses affection through the everyday necessity, nourishment and comfort of food. In this special collection of time-honoured recipes, Julie Mai Tran, a first-generation Vietnamese-Chinese American and the creator of Share My Roots, celebrates Vietnamese cuisine and culture inspired by her mother's cooking. Julie brings the authentic flavours of Northern, Central and Southern Vietnam's most beloved dishes to your home kitchen. Find over 75 showstopping recipes from childhood classics like Bun Thit Nuong (BBQ Pork Vermicelli bowl) and Thit Kho Trung (Braised Pork and Eggs), to restaurant favorites like Pho Bo (Beef Rice Noodle Soup) and Crispy Fried Noodles (Mi Xao Gion/ Don), and must-try dishes including Banh Xeo (Sizzling Crepes), and Cha Ca Thang Long (Turmeric and Dill Fish). Filled with lush full-page photography and poignant stories of family and Vietnam's history, this love letter to Vietnamese cuisine and family roots paints a colourful landscape of the immigrant experience, serving as a cultural guidepost for generations to come.
