Steam Cuisine Description: Steaming is one of the healthiest, simplest and most versatile cooking methods around: not only does it retain the nutritional qualities of ingredients more than any other technique, it doesn`t require any fat. So if you`re trying to improve your diet or simply want your food to be as tasty as it can be, it`s the perfect option. Steam Cuisine features all the techniques you`ll need to know to get the best from your steamer - at its simplest, steaming can mean an upturned dish in a pan of water, or traditional metal and bamboo steamers; but now plug-in electric steamers are widely available, and their separate layers mean you can cook more than one dish at a time. Plus, did you know that some foods, including broccoli, will retain up to 90 per cent of their vitamin content when steamed, compared to only 30 per cent when boiled? Steaming fish or meat also means you don`t have to use oil or fat to fry, meaning you get all the taste of the food and none of the grease. But steamed food doesn`t mean dull food - you can make delicious dim sum, couscous and puddings, as well as spicy meat dishes, perfect rice and mouth-watering fish dishes in minutes. Around the world, steaming has long been a popular cooking method, and Steam Cuisine includes exciting recipes from China and South-East Asia such as Prawn and pork won ton, Scallop and coriander dim sum and Duck rolls with spring onion. There`s inspiration from the Middle East and North Africa, with the likes of Whole quail with a pomegranate marinade and Seven vegetable couscous. In the Mediterranean wonderful ingredients are commonly wrapped in a paper envelope to be steam-baked and opened at the table, such as Mussels, monkfish and clams in a saffron broth and Lemony chicken parcels with garlic, chard and chilli. While in Britain, the sweetest, most indulgent puddings like Sticky pecan toffee pudding are steamed. With 110 tried-and-tested, easy-to-follow recipes and full-colour photographs throughout, Steam Cuisine will op... Read More about the "Steam Cuisine" on the The Nile Book Store Website

Sushi Description: For the uninitiated, sushi restaurants can be intimidating. But no more. Just like its irresistible predecessor Dim Sum, Sushi can be tucked into a purse or pocket for instant-expert reference. Fifty of the most popular sushi items are presented as colorfully as a Japanese restaurant`s display case with clear photographs for easy identification, descriptions of flavors and textures, and phonetic pronunciations. Icons distinguish whether sushi is cooked (like unagi) or is vegetarian (like the cucumber roll). Covering nigiri, maki, and a few unusual sushi items (blowfish, anyone?), Japanese foodophiles can take it easy by ordering the crowd-pleasing California Roll, or go for broke and sample uni (sea urchin), an acquired taste, but a favorite of any sushi-lover worth their tobiko. With a short history of sushi, ordering and eating etiquette, and a simple glossary of out-of-the-ordinary ingredients, Sushi is the definitive guide to one of Japan`s most intriguing culinary specialties. Itadakimasu! (enjoy).... Read More about the "Sushi" on the The Nile Book Store Website
