The Asian Market Cookbook
How to Find Superior Ingredients to Elevate Your Asian Home Cooking
Asian markets are ideal for finding ingredients for a variety of Asian dishes — in addition to often having a bigger selection, ingredients are often cheaper at these local markets, and more authentic to boot. But navigating these markets can have a steep learning curve, especially for novices who may not know where to begin.
Luckily, celebrity chef Vivian Aronson has you covered. She's an expert at traversing the ins and outs of Asian markets, and in this book, she'll break down staple ingredients in Asian cuisine while also providing recipes that are ideal for home cooks. If you want to know the difference between sesame paste and miso paste, or between dried noodles and hand-made noodles, this book is ideal for you.
Plus, in addition to explaining these crucial recipe components, Vivian also includes delicious recipes: once you've learned about these exciting ingredients, you'll want to start cooking with them immediately. Try your hand at making Sichuan Jelly Noodles, or Shredded Pork in Sweet Bean Sauce, all with ingredients from your local Asian market.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
