The cuisines in this book were chosen for their successful flavor combinations, strong techniques, and creativity.Though desserts are an important part of cuisine, because there is far more material than is posible to cover, Discovering Global Cuisines chooses to focus only on savory dishes.Although nutrition isn't directly addressed, it is fundamentals to every one of the cuisines represented.Ayurveda and other diet-health modalities in Indian and Asian cuisines have blurred the lines between food and medicine, and the West is awakening to this way of thinking.
