Malaysian cuisine is one of the last undiscovered cuisines of Asia, at least in the German-speaking world. But what makes it so special? It is a unique and particularly colorful cuisine. Due to its location along the coastal road of Malacca, the country is exposed to many different influences – in terms of flavor, you can find the aromas of all of Asia as well as traces of its colonial powers, but in completely new combinations. With the author team, we travel through the beautiful landscape and visit kitchens, chefs, and producers in all parts of the country. The recipes range from well-known traditional dishes to the chef's own interpretations with Malaysian roots, which can also be made without fish and meat. The book is rounded off with a comprehensive guide to Malaysian cooking ingredients and their sources. Just as exciting as Malaysian cuisine itself, this cookbook brings fresh air to any bookshelf.
