To Asia, With Love – Cookbook Giveaway
July 13, 2021 by JennyEnter our US/CA/UK/ giveaway to win one of two copies of To Asia, With Love: Everyday Asian Recipes and Stories from the Heart by Hetty McKinnon; with one additional copy available to members in AU/NZ.
Hetty McKinnon has written four cookbooks that are wildly popular with our members – and myself! Her latest is edging up to be my favorite To Asia, With Love. I have only made one recipe from the title – the Potato and chive omelet – and I need to remake it because it was delicious and also to take a great photo.
The recipes here are approachable, comforting and flavorful. I took the book along with me to an appointment today and was making a grocery list. The receptionist in the waiting room could see me flipping through the pages and said “everything looks so good”. She is right.
Our takes you inside this beautiful book and features the following
- Potato and leek momos
- Wontons and noodles in ginger-turmeric broth
- Ginger-shallot miso-glazed eggplant
- Tamarind apple crisp
- A green salad, with cumquats
- Three congee toppings: kale chips and everything oil
- Three congee toppings: five-spice shiitake mushrooms and sesame
- Three congee toppings: quick-pickled carrot salad with sesame seeds
- Soy sauce chow mein with a fried egg
Recipes range from the traditional to Hetty’s uniquely modern interpretations, such as Buttery miso vegemite noodles, Stir-fried salt and vinegar potatoes, Cacio e pepe udon noodles and Grilled wombok caesar salad with wonton crackers. All share an emphasis on seasonal vegetables and creating irresistible Asian(ish) flavours using pantry staples. Whether it’s a banh mi turned into a salad, a soy-sauce-powered chocolate brownie or a rainbow guide to eating dumplings by the season, this is Asian home cooking unlike anything you’ve experienced before.
On Wednesday July 21st, the Salt + Spine Cookbook Club in conjunction with Hardcover Cook will be hosting a virtual dinner party featuring Hetty. For more information and to register visit here. To Asia, With Love is Hardcover Cook’s vegetarian box which I have ordered myself. The box is filled with great ingredients and products (and a signed copy of the book!).
Heads up – To Asia, With Love will be one of our cookbook options in the Eat Your Books Cookbook Club in October.
