## Description

The definitive Peruvian cookbook, featuring 500 traditional home cooking recipes from the country's most acclaimed and popular chef, Gastón Acurio. One of the world's most innovative and flavorful cuisines, Peruvian food has been consistently heralded by chefs and media around the world as the "next big thing." Peruvian restaurants are opening across the United States, with 20 in San Francisco alone, including Limon and La Mar. Acurio guides cooks through the full range of Peru's vibrant cuisine from popular classics like quinoa and ceviche , and lomo saltado to lesser known dishes like amaranth and aji amarillo . For the first time, audiences will be able to bring the flavors of one of the world's most popular culinary destinations into their own kitchen.

Review: It is written in English and while Peruvians will like this book - NEW version Ask anybody born in Peru or any Peruvian living abroad: “Who is Gaston Acurio?” and they will tell you he is the most famous Peruvian Chef. If you review what world renowned chefs such as Alain Ducasse, Ferran Adria and Joan Roca they will describe Gaston as a media personality, writer, promoter of Peruvian culture, social activist and successful global entrepreneur (Gaston has restaurants in Europe, Asia and through all the Americas). He is an inspiration to home cooks, chefs and restaurateurs around the world (including me). While he has written many books, “PERU” is the first published in English and available in USA on desertcart.com and local book shops. This book contains what we Peruvians eat every day at home and local restaurants. "PERU" includes most traditional recipes and their steps to prepare them from scratch. It is written in English and while Peruvians will like this book, it aims also to the other 98% non Peruvians living in USA that may not be familiar with Peruvian cuisine but will not regret giving it a try!. While Peru is currently part of the top 5 culinary destination of the world, this book will not disappoint and will provide readers a good insight and instructions on how to prepare typical and delicious meals here! Book price is spot on when comparing quality of paper/images to similar other American - published cookbooks. Very cool cover!
Review: Great addition to the cookboox collection - This is just a really cool and well put together book giving your an insight into the cuisine. Looks great. Functional but easy act as a coffee table type book as well

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic Peruvian recipes
*by G***M on September 11, 2023*

Phaidon cookbooks are incredible. I have several of their cookbooks covering different countries and I have loved trying the different cuisines. I know if it is from Phaidon I should buy it. This one is fantastic. Just talking about it makes me want to get in the kitchen and get started. I have to order some of the ingredients because I live in a rural area and they are not available. Amazon has what I need so I can have the ingredients in a day or two. If you haven't had Peruvian food you are really missing out.
