Description

A reference summary of the Jiangnan culinary tradition as Dunlop presents it in *Land of Fish and Rice* — the cuisine of the Yangtze River Delta region, encompassing Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Nanjing, and the surrounding Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces. Jiangnan cooking is the quietest of all Chinese regional traditions: its flavour balance is subtle, its techniques are restrained, its ingredients are seasonal and local, and its aesthetic is one of elegant simplicity rather than assertive complexity.
