A propos de cet article
Description :
Tofu: A Culinary History 1.55. N° de réf. du vendeur BBS-9781789149531
Synopsis :
To the untrained eye there’s nothing as unexciting as tofu, normally regarded as a tasteless, beige, congealed mass of crushed, boiled soybeans. However, tofu more than stands up on its own. Reviled for decades as a vegetarian oddity, the brave, wobbly block has made a comeback. This global history of bean curd stretches from ancient creation myths and tomb paintings, via Chinese poetry and Japanese Buddhist cuisine, to deportations in Soviet Russia and struggles for power on the African continent. It describes the potentially non-Chinese roots of tofu, its myriad types, why ‘eating tofu’ is an insult in Cantonese, and its environmental impact today. Warning: this book actually makes tofu exciting. It’s anything but bland.
À propos de l?auteur: Russell Thomas is an author and journalist currently based in Tokyo. His writing has appeared in the Japan Times, the Guardian, and the South China Morning Post, among others.
