New Cookbook brings Yunnan Cuisine into Limelight

A new cookbook titled “The Yunnan Cookbook: Recipes from China’s Land of Ethnic Diversity,” aims to bring together the rich colorful delights of the renowned Yunnan cuisine as a guide for those who wish to savor its exotic flavors. If you’re spending your vacation in China at a luxury resort in Mui Ne such as the Anantara Xishuangbanna Resort & Spa, Yunnan cuisine is something you should try out as it is considered that Yunnan food is the Chinese cuisine du jour. The author of this acclaimed book Annabel Jackson, an England-based food anthropologist, says that it is of the few Yunnan cookbooks available in English. What makes this book a good read is that in addition to recipes, it also talks about delightful excerpts from life — from a breakfast in a Tibetan village to a flower festival to profiles of local chefs.
