Review: Marvelous! - More than a cookbook--she takes you there!
Review: Definitive. - The author of this cookbook goes out of her way to present not only traditional recipes, but enough knowledge and technique to help you achieve traditional taste. This is no mere recipe book, it's more of a guide to Thai cooking. From the very start, Loha-Unchit explains everything about the essential components of Thai cuisine and exactly what they do to each dish. Interspersed amongst her recipes are stories related to the dishes that may seem sappy to some, but generally help explain what the cook is trying to achieve with each recipe. This book will definitely challenge and enhance your cooking skills. After preparing a few of the selections she presents, you won't just know how to whip up several dishes by rote- you'll have a very good understanding of the essentials of Thai cooking.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book for Learning the Experience of Thai Cooking
*by J***E on June 1, 2014*

Other reviewers have said that there is not much in the way of recipes in this one and it's true. There may be a total of 15 - 20 recipes - all good btw. But the commentary...that's the real gem of this book. I read the entire book, front to back and was greatly enlightened on the culture and art of Thai cooking. I bought other Thai cookbooks at the same time that I bought this one which had more recipes in those, but I always come back to this one for her (the author's) words of wisdom, explanations, and descriptions.
