# Modern Asian Kitchen: Essential and Easy Recipes for Ramen, Dumplings, Dim Sum, Stir-Fries, Rice Bowls, Pho, Bibimbaps, and More - Hardcover

by **Kat Lieu** (Author)

**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**\--"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 _Modern Asian Kitchen_.

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
-   **Quick noodle dishes** for super-easy lunches
-   **Quick-fix** matcha ramen bowls and simple miso soups
-   **Dim sum**, with tricks and food hacks like rice-paper shrimp dumplings
-   **Street-food favorites** like Taiwanese popcorn chicken in the air fryer
-   **Customizable bibimbap bowls** for busy-weeknight dinners
-   **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:

Whether you are cooking a family-style feast of a dozen exciting dishes for the sharing table, or you just want a simple and hearty one-bowl meal at the end of a busy workday (or a quick meal when you work from home), you will find **a lifetime of tasty ideas** in the pages of _Modern Asian Kitchen_.
