"The New Asian Cooking is bolder and more assertive, less fussy and more casual. With these easy-to-shop-for, quick-to-cook recipes, you can try-and will fall in love with-this trending style right in your own kitchen.

Heaped on big plates, Sichuan beef and broccoli and Indian chicken tikka masala are timeless comfort foods, to be sure, but there's a brand-new style of Asian cooking that's giving them a run for their money. It's more about grazing through small plates than sinking into one big one. It's more about pan-Asian fusions--so-called ""third culture"" foods, the cooking of the Asian diaspora--than about each culture's oldest traditions. It's more plant-forward than meat-centered. It's irreverent and fun and incredibly delicious. And it's all captured in this amazing book.

Kat Lieu-the blogger and online personality who presides over the Subtle Asian Baking corner of the enormously popular Subtle Asian Traits online community, and who is the author of Modern Asian Baking at Home-serves up more than 80 inventive recipes for vibrant vegetable dishes like Sichuan-style fish-fragrant eggplant and umami-packed braised shiitake mushrooms, plus quick noodle dishes for super-easy lunches. You can enjoy dim sum at home any day with tricks and food hacks like rice-paper shrimp dumplings; delight in quick-fix matcha ramen bowls and simple miso soups; or make street-food favorites like Taiwanese popcorn chicken in the air fryer, or highly customizable bibimbap bowls for busy-weeknight dinners. And there are Southeast Asian favorites like cold-papaya salads, streaming hot phos, and spring rolls with surprising things inside and punchy chile-crisp coatings on the outside. The recipes also include: Umami-Packed Spiral Cucumber Salad Sumptuous Siu Mai and Easy Dim Sum

"“Kat’s second book is a tribute to the savory and sweet. It's a touching rendering of her roots and the different threads of Asian America that have influenced her cooking and work.”  * Clarissa Wei, author of Made in Taiwan * “This cookbook is the perfect companion for those looking to explore the vibrant and delicious world of Asian classics and modern fusion dishes!” * Chef Shota Nakajima, James Beard Semifinalist, Top Chef Finalist, and Restaurateur * “Modern Asian Kitchen makes Asian cooking approachable and easy for those who want to bring those classic and nostalgic flavors back home. The broad mix of Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Southeast Asian, and Indian recipes makes this book a staple that you must add to your kitchen shelves.” * Kathy Fang- Chef Owner of Fang Restaurant, Author of Easy Asian Cookbook * “Modern Asian Kitchen is a must-have for anyone wanting delicious and comforting dishes that’ll please the taste buds. Kat does it again with another beautifully written book that’s packed with so much variety and familiarity. That braised candied pork belly is calling my name and Jordan’s favorite is the Shanghai Rice cakes. There’s something in here for the entire family. Deciding on what we have for dinner just became a whole lot easier with Modern Asian Kitchen.”  * Jeff & Jordan Kim, authors of Cooking with the CrunchBros, aka The CrunchBros (+CrunchMom and Kaiya) * ""Modern Asian Kitchen is packed with dishes you already love (but maybe didn't think you could make at home), like char siu bao and har gow, and new favorites you'll want to try immediately, like barley tea and cocoa-smoked chicken. Kat Lieu's approachable style makes you feel capable of anything, which is good  because you'll want to make every recipe in this gorgeous book.""   * Megan Scott, Senior Editor of The Spruce Eats *"
