Don't understand the hype.......2007-08-21
I am completely perplexed by the multitude of 5-star reviews for this cookbook. 35 of 37 reviews gave 5 stars, the other 2 reviews 4 stars at the time of writing this. Not a single other person out there was even remotely dissatisfied? Something seems wrong...
I'm not Vietnamese but I live near Little Saigon and eat there quite often so I think I have a pretty good grasp of the cuisine and how everything should taste. It's my favorite cuisine, and I have even learned to cook some of the dishes from friends, etc. I bought this book because I wanted to expand my repetoire, however, everything I have tried has come out tasting 'off'.
I found the directions in the recipes to be either misleading or not descriptive enough. Take the bu'n rie^u recipe, for example. The ingredients call for a large onion, pealed. In the directions, she just instructs you to saute the onion in a small skillet. Obviously you are not expected to saute a whole onion, however there is no mention as to whether you should quarter it, dice it, chop or mince it, etc. as you would expect in any other cookbook. Not to mention a large onion + shallots + crab won't even fit in a small skillet. That may sound picky but for a cuisine that is still considered somewhat exotic and unfamiliar to most Americans I think these kind of details are very important if the food is going to come out right.
The good aspects of this book are the descriptions of the culture, cuisine, and history of Little Saigon and it's people, which is really quite interesting. I just wouldn't recommend using this book to try cooking the food. I would suggest maybe trying the more detailed (albeit more difficult) "Into the Vietnamese Kitchen" cookbook for that.
In short, to^i kho^ng thi'ch sa'ch na`y.
Thank you!!!.......2007-07-09
I am an Indian who is married to a Vietnamese. I have always loved cooking and never have been afraid to try something different. I am always searching for authentic Vietnamese cookbooks in English and I have to say that this one is going to be my favorite. I thank Ms. Le for writing this book in such a detail and for her recipes.
Love it!.......2007-04-12
I like to try my hand at cooking foods I enjoy eating in restaurants and Vietnamese happens to be one of my favorites. I borrowed this book from the library and cooked several dishes, all which came out absolutely delicious. I liked it so much that after I returned the book to the library, I bought my own copy on amazon.It looks like I'll be able to recreate my favorite rice vermicelli, spring rolls, and pho dishes at home on a regular basis. For anyone who wants to try their hand at cooking Vietnamese dishes at home this one's a definite keeper.
Armenian man with a vietnamese food fetish .......2007-03-03
I've always had a thing for vietnamese food. I love everything about it, only problem is, I've just never been able to cook any of it. Born into an Armenian kitchen, the flavors, spices, and methods of cooking I've learned do me no good. I had resigned myself to eating out for vietnamese the rest of my life.
Then I saw an article in the March issue of Sunset magazine. A girl with dimples promising to teach me how to make vietnamese food. On a rare impulse, I bought The Little Saigon Cookbook (I think it hit a chord of sentimentality since I live in LIttle Armenia). The recipes are simple, fast, and delicious! I've now been able to make new friends and influence people using my new found cullinary skills. Thank you Ann Le!
Brings a piece of Vietnam to American kitchens........2006-10-15
Southern California's Little Saigon Restaurant serves as the inspiration for a cookbook of the same name, providing Vietnamese specialties geared to home cooks. From Braised Eggplant and Tofu in Caramel sauce to Traditional Spring Rolls and Whole Salted Fish with Lemongrass and Chili Paste, THE LITTLE SAIGON COOKBOOK: VIETNAMESE CUISINE AND CULTURE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA'S LITTLE SAIGON brings a piece of Vietnam to American kitchens.

One page of deliciousness after another is what you'll find once you crack the cover of Diana My Tran's The Vietnamese Cookbook. Tran has a couple of qualifications above and beyond her Vietnamese heritage as underpinnings to this book: She has two impatient children and a very busy career. Time, then, is of the essence. And yet, she wants to pass on to her children the food of their culture--while living in the U.S.
So from the many dishes of her own childhood in Saigon Diana My Tran has simplified technique while making use of the available foods in an American supermarket. The results are quickly prepared, flavorful renditions of Vietnamese classics that give the cook the sense of what Vietnamese cooking is all about. As Tran points out, part of what it's all about is low-fat cooking with lots of vegetables--a veritable diet book.
Tran divides her book by rice, sauces, appetizers and salads, soups, main dishes, and desserts and beverages. She mixes lemon juice and lemon zest to create the Lemon Rice she serves with chicken and seafood. There's also a recipe for sticky rice with peanuts. Her sauces include such standards as Sweet and Sour Fish Sauce and Sweet and Sour Soy Sauce. Among the appetizers you will find spring rolls, both fried and fresh. Also, Shrimp Mung Bean Rice Cakes. There's a Papaya Shrimp Salad as well as a Lime Steak Salad. The wonderful Beef Noodle Soup (Pho Bo) is represented. Main dishes include Ginger Chicken, Honey Roasted Quail, Sesame Spareribs, Caramel Shrimp, Lemongrass Fish, and Vietnamese Crab Cakes.
The Vietnamese Cookbook is an easy way in to this wonderful culinary world. Let your palate be your guide. --Schuyler Ingle
Book Description

Diana invites you to create your own memorable meals with more than 100 tantalizing recipes for authentic Vietnamese sauces, appetizers, salads, soups, main dishes, desserts, and beverages. Combine the tempting healthful food with Steve Raymer’s magnificent photographs of Vietnam, and you’ll truly taste the exquisite flavors of this age-old country in all its beauty and richness.

practical and delicious.......2006-05-04
i am vietnamese and since i never had the priviledge to learn directly from my mom how to cook.. i picked up this book just to give it a try. within a few weeks, i have tried most of the recipes particularly the main dishes. not only are they quick recipes with only 4 to 5 steps max, the dishes require simple ingredients, obtainable and cheap.. not only that but all these dishes have turned out to be delicious.. i feel like i can compete with my mom's great cooking. lol. i absolutely love this book. it's a must have!
Very detailed guide for very traditionally Vietnamese dish.......2005-10-17
I like the book after just skimming through some of the pages. I know to cook some of them before and I think it matches the way it was taught in there. I believe this is an excellent book for those who really want to know to cook traditional Vietnamese dish especially the dish from the Northern Vietnam.
Great everyday Vietnamese cookbook .......2005-02-26
I come from a Vietnamese family but was raised in a small Wisconsin town. Growing up, my mom would make Vietnamese dishes along with standard American fare. Although the supermarkets in the area did not have available all the necessary ingredients to make authentic Vietnamese dishes, my mom found comparable replacements. I never cooked that much to begin with, but when I got older and lived away from my folks, I wanted to try my hand at Vietnamese cooking and found this book while I was a student in Washington DC. I've tried many of the recipes in this cookbook and found them easy to follow and the results tasted quite good. Also, I thought it was especially helpful that the author used ingredients that could be found almost anywhere in the U.S. and explained or had pictures of what some of the ingredients were (I had never seen actual lemongrass until I moved to DC!). So, I recommend this book to anyone interested in trying out Vietnamese cooking.
easiest Asian cookbook ever.......2004-04-03
At the time I bought this book, I bought 2 other Asian cookbooks. I've never even opened them as I have tried recipe after recipe from The Vietnamese Cookbook. The recipes are dead easy, delicious, and the ingredients are easily obtainable. And...most of the recipes are low fat. What more could you want?
Delicious and easy cooking.......2004-02-07
I love this cookbook! It is very easy to follow and descriptive. The recipes are quick and they turn out great. I look forward to making something new each day from this cookbook. I definitely recommend this cookbook to others who want to try Vietnamese cooking for themselves.
Book Description
INTRODUCTION
Vietnam is a country of natural beauty with a coastline of sandy beaches stretching about 2000 miles (3225 km) from the northern to the southern tip of the South China Sea. Along the coast, fishing is the main livelihood. The majority of Vietnamese people are Kinh race people (87%) with the
remaining of 53 different ethnic minority groups. For more than 2000 years, the country has been subjected to a near continuing series of foreign occupations from China, France, Japan, and America. One consequence of these occupations is the lasting influence on Vietnamese cuisine. Among Vietnamese
dishes, perhaps the best known in the West is Pho, a noodle soup. Another is the deep-fried spring roll called Nern in the north, and Cha Goi in the south. Rice is a staple food used as a side dish, or a main dish when combined with other ingredients, such as beef, pork, chicken, or seafood.
Vietnamese dishes consist of many different blends of herbs and spices. Most dishes are not fiery hot, nor greasy. Seafood and vegetarian dishes like An Chay are very popular. Today, Vietnamese cuisine is gaining increased international attention due to the fact that it is quite healthy.
This book is an introduction to a new generation for a delicious journey through Vietnamese cuisine. While the combination of flavors may seem experimental to some, they will result in a savory experience. All ingredients used in these recipes can be found in supermarkets, natural food stores or in
Asian food markets. It is our pleasure to share these quick and delicious Vietnamese recipes with you. Enjoy the good nutrition that comes with it.

Quick, easy, and delicious........2007-09-01
This book is excellent for beginners who want to cook Vietnamese food. The author, Andre Nguyen, is a Vietnamese chef who owns a Vietnamese restaurant, so he knows how to cook very well. The recipes have only a few ingredients that are easy to find in a Vietnamese market or other Southeast Asian markets, and they taste delicious. This book along with Diana My Tran's "The Vietnamese Cookbook" are two of the easiest Vietnamese cookbooks to cook from for beginners or homecooks who want to put food on the table fast! The major difference between this book and Diana My Tran's book is that this book seems to include more "restaurant-esque" recipes. Diana My Tran is not a chef, and she includes Vietnamese recipes that she cooks at home in her book. The recipes in Andre's book are simple but at the same time "sophisticated", meaning you won't be embarrassed serving them to guests. I bought serveral copies as gifts. If you want 100% authentic Vietnamese recipes which will take hours to prepare, then this book is not for you. But if you want delicious Vietnamese recipes that have been simplified for beginners or for homecooks, then this book is definitely for you. I highly recommend this book for its quick, easy, and delicious recipes. This book also has great color photos of every recipe, so they're very helpful. I really, really like this book. I hope Andre will write another one. One last thing...there are many recipes in Andre's book that are not in Diana My Tran's book and vice versa. It would be a good idea to buy both books because I like them both.
Lots of pictures!!.......2007-07-06
I'm Viet but I was born in America. I only learned how to cook a couple of Vietnamese dishes from my parents but I have been looking for a good cookbook. This one is my favorite so far! There are pictures of every dish AND step by step pictures! SOOOO helpful! And because there are pictures of each dish, I recognized almost all of them even if I didn't know exactly what it was called.
This book is PERFECT for me (the amateur cook wanting to replicate Vietnamese homecooking for my own family)!
5 STARS!!
Great, Quic & Easy Cookbook.......2007-05-22
I used 4 recipes from this book so far. All were easy to make and very delicious. I can't wait to make the rest
The best Vietnamese cook book yet........2007-04-09
I have gone through many expensive Vietnamese cook books and have not used a single recipe out of them because they're difficult or "it's not the way my mom made it." This book show pictures of the ingredients so you know what to look for in an Asian store and pictures of the end product. If I don't know the name of a dish I can look at the picture and recognize it. I tried learning from my mom but as everyone knows most women from Vietnam don't measure, it's a little of this and some of that. So some of the time my recipes are just right and other times they weren't. My mom would try to explain what a certain ingredient was but would not know the English name for it. This book explains it all. Very easy to follow recipes and they turn out just like "the way my mom made it."
Great Book!.......2007-02-09
I've tried about half of the receipes in this book and it taste great! I love the simple instructions and pictures of all the items you need to make the entree. Wish all cookbooks were like this! Although I have to say they used the wrong wrap for making the eggrolls. The one they pictured isn't ideal for deep frying.

Great food.......2006-04-28
"A Vietnamese Kitchen" is a tribute to the author's homeland and heritage.
Ha Roda, born in Saigon, authored this cookbook which features her native cuisine, Vietnamese. Her aunt was a chef and inspired her to cook. After living numerous years in the United States, Roda decided to pen this book and share with Americans her heritage and adapting recipes to meet the American palate!
Americans first became widely aware of Vietnam during the Vietnam War. Afterwards, there was a surge of Vietnamese immigrants to our country. This cookbook demonstrates the food of these people and a celebration of a wonderful culture.
The recipes in this book are tasty and easy-to-follow. Unlike a lot of Hippocrene Books (the Publisher), this cookbook does contain photographs. They are black and white photos of each recipe.
The chapters in this book are: Sauces & Condiments; Appetizers; Soups & Salads; Rice & Noodles; Stir-Fries; Kho Dishes; Meat & Seafood; Desserts; and Meal Planning. Some of my favorite recipes are: Pepper Steak, Vietnamese Vanilla Yogurt, Tofu Curry and Vietnamese Chicken Noodle Soup.
I really enjoyed Ha Roda's "A Vietnamese Kitchen". It showed me the similarities with other Asian cultures, as well as Vietnam's unique differences.
Familie Recipies Migrated to American Style.......2005-09-03
Vietnamese foods are a rather recent development in the United States. The Viet Nam war introduced thousands to the food, and the Vietnamese people who came to America after the war brought their foods with them. It has taken some time for Vietnamese foods to have become established as one of the authentic ethnic foods available over most of the country.
In part this time delay was caused by the availability of authentic spices. Either American spices had to be substituted for the traditional spices or the Vietnamese spices had to be either imported or grown here.
In this book Ha Roda, born in Saigon, has had to adapt the Vietnamese recipies to the American kitchens and cooking styles. She started with the basic recipies of her aunt Bac Kit, a retired chef. This book is a tribute to her family and to the Vietnamese that have been a welcome asset to American life as well as foods.
Customer Reviews:
Good reference for experienced cook.......2005-12-09
I found the recipes not very easy to follow, but if you are already somewhat familiar with Vietnamese cooking techniques (salad dressing, etc) it is a good reference cook. I also found the recipe for Husband and Wife cake, which is very rare among cookbooks.
This book is definitely not for beginners.
Entertaining but not informative.......2000-02-22
This book belongs to one of many in a series of world cuisines and I have found all of them to be embellished with decorative and beautiful pictures. Unfortunately, the recipes that accompany them tend to be instructionally inexplicit and often poor interpretations of the recipes of these countries. If you're interested in getting a crash course in a new cuisine this book is perfect, but pass on this book if you are a serious cook.
Pretty..but is not a must have.......2000-01-05
It has pretty pictures and some chatty writing but I would not consider it a must have on the shelf of Vietnamese cooking. Though it is better than alot of Vietnamese cookbooks I have come across.
Flaws include:
1) Assumption of knowledge of meat preparation including how to clean squid and cutting for tenderness;
2) Does not prepare reader fully when recipe is longer than 15 minutes. Yes indeed it will take more than 15, matter of fact, it will approach an hour or so (yipes);
3) Some recipes especially stocks are westernized excessively (celery! no star anise);
The section on pickles though is good. So are the pictures dealing with ingredients.
Get this pupster on a discount not at full retail. It is good as a supplement but it is not a desert island classic.
Easy recipes for College Students!.......1999-01-18
I am currently attending college and cooking is not my forte! However, I love Vietnamese food and wanted a book with pictures to help guide my limited culinary skills. This book is the one!! The bright, colorful, and detailed pictures help the novice chef to determine whether he/ she is on the right track. The recipes are easy to follow and I actually had fun cooking! Take it from me, I'm Vietnamese and the recipes are authentic!

Author's Notes.......2007-04-10
I am the author of this cookbook.
First of all, although the description does not mention it, this book also contains a detailed sushi section. It gives clear instructions on how to make great sushi at home, including how to make sushi rice, how to cut sushi, and how to make several different rolls. A detailed glossary explains different kinds of sushi, and the book also tells where someone can get great quality sushi on-line.
The book also contains traditional recipes from China (stir fries and dim sum), Thailand, Vietnam, & Japan.
Recipes include:
How to make great white rice
Red Bean Sesame Ball (Dim Sum)
Shao Mai (Dim Sum)
Pad Thai (Thailand)
Larb (Thailand)
Sticky Rice (Thailand)
Bun Bo Hue (Vietnam)
Bun Rieu (Vietnam)
Fresh Spring Rolls & 2 sauces (Vietnam)
Catfish in a Claypot (Vietnam)
Pho (Vietnam)
Sushi Rice
Detailed glossaries explain ingredients and often brand names are suggested. There is a list of websites of where to get ingredients, including fresh ones like fresh lemongrass & galanga, as well as equipment.
The recipes are written so that the novice Asian cook can immediately cook good Asian food. The more experienced Asian chef will appreciate the combination of recipes given.
The recipes are not "Americanized"- they use traditional, authentic ingredients such as galanga (galangal), lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and fish sauce. Again, websites of where to get all of this are listed.

Customer Reviews:
just recipes please!.......2004-03-09
This book is very disappointing! Very few recipes and a lot of pages wasted on things such as warning the reader to be careful while cooking. Is it really necessary to include a recipe on how to make steamed rice? This book also claimed to include vegetarian recipes, but very few were provided. Some of recipes look promissing, but really not worth buying because there are too few recipes and too many page fillers.
Disappointed too!.......2004-01-26
This was definately sparse on the recipes. It is very basic (and I was a bit surprised to see that in the publication info at the front of the book, it's also listed under "juvenile literature"). There is good info on Vietnam, it's customs, people, etc., but a full half of the book concentrated on that and a few silly things like describing the term "boil". Definately not enough recipes. A grand total of 24 recipes, including how to cook rice and recipes for simple sauces. I'm disappointed with this (and the book "Cooking the Thai Way" which I ordered with it) but hate to return things so I'll just have to make the dozen or so recipes that interest me. Then get a nice, comprehensive Vietnamese cookbook where I can preview it before buying! This was my first online book purchase...
Disappointment!.......2004-01-12
Just right after receiving the book, I took a look and was very disappointed immediately: "Is this all ?"The book is thin and carry almost of half for unnessary general introduction. There are not much especial and interesting recipes which you can find from the other practical and attentive book .
Perhaps because of the price so is that all we can get for what we pay?
For really really really beginner that may work.
Book Description

A special section has been provided to identify the basic ingredients, sauces and staples so important for deriving the exotic flavors associated with Vietnamese dishes. This cookbook offers 85 mouthwatering recipes, with associated photos of finished dishes. In addition, small pictures of the special ingredients so necessary in Vietnamese cooking are furnished as an aid to the reader.
Customer Reviews:
Newly enjoyed cookbook.......2002-01-26
I bought the Vietnamese Cuisine cookbook after reading the very favorable review in the LA Times. The review statement ¡K ¡§recipes so simple that anyone could make a Vietnamese meal without prior experience¡¨ is absolutely correct. The meal and procedure pictures were very helpful in preserving the authenticity of the dishes and I greatly appreciated the information on ingredient substitution to retain the Vietnamese flavors and tastes. As a person with not much patience, I appreciated the concise and cogent instructions. Interestingly, I found the plastic cover made it easy to clean the book when I¡¦m done with my typical ¡§messy¡¨ cooking. Highly recommended.
Not The Vietnamese You Were Looking For.......2001-09-11
I grew up in a multi-ethnic house, eating authentic Vietnamese food at least 5 days a week. I was very excited to find an illustrated cookbook that listed the dishes I wanted to cook, particularly since my mom and my favorite Vietnamese restaurant are both several hours away.
I have to say, I was heartily disappointed with this cookbook. The recipes are close to what I know they SHOULD be, but something in them seems slightly off. I have a feeling that something was lost in the translation. This might be a good cookbook for those who already know what they're doing in the kitchen and just need inspiration, but it's definitely not for a new cook or someone new to Vietnamese cuisine.
Your best bet with this book would be to look at the pictures and be creative. If you follow the recipes, you're likely to find disappointment.
Very flawed but full of pictures.......2000-06-08
The book is bilingual with instructions in both Chinese and English. Each section is graced with photos of the dishes.
The book is flawed for its lack of details such as, time for preparation; and of procedures (either written or pictorial. Phrases such as, "Cook chicken until 80% done" - are not overly instructive.
I would not recommend this book unless one is already familiar with cooking processes, Asian in particular. It does not give thorough background in either the history of the country nor dishes. This book also fails to teach a person on how to cook. There is an introducion of ingredients that does have photos but other than that you are on your own. IT is a simple repository of *very* modified recipes.
The recipes are not quite right. An example is the "vietnamese pancake" or Ban Xeo which only uses wheat flour (try rice flour and potato starch) or the fact that the frequent sauces used section is missing caramel (an essential ingredient used in various stewed and stir fry dishes. Oh yes, the dipping sauce recipe is WAY off.
You are much better off getting another Vietnamese cookbook to start you off such as, "Best of Vietnames and Thai Cooking" - Mai Pham which is an easy introduction to dishes and ingredients though somewhat westernized (not excessively). The Lonely Planet food guide to Viet Nam is better than this book - and that is not a cookbook but a guide to Vietnamese food. For the more hardcore go get Corinne Trang's "vietnamese cooking".
If you are a collector and obsessed about having a complete collection then get this book but ONLY on a big discount.
Not recommended for beginners and for advanced users it will be disappointing except as a possible cross reference for dishes.
