Adventures in Starry Kitchen by Nguyen Tran
Nguyen Tran admittedly grew up avoiding the Vietnamese food that he now writes about in this book. However, through this witty and fun cookbook, we now know he’s not only learned to embrace the food of his heritage but has mastered Pan-Asian comfort food across the board. With this cookbook, learn to cook lemongrass tofu, salted duck egg cereal prawns, ribeye satay noodles and more.

Needless to say, call up all your friends because you’re going to have a great time with this one!
