Author Description

In this timely book for contemporary cooks, Rainer Zinngrebe demonstrates his easy expertise in the often-misinterpreted field of fusion cuisine. He shows us how to do it properly, going beyond the usual Pan-Asian themes and drawing on his classical European background and extensive experience in Asia and the USA. Ideas and ingredients from the food cultures Rainer knows and understands are fused to create dishes that really work. In 'Beyond Fusion', you will find balanced combinations of taste, texture and technique that transcend traditional ethnic boundaries. Dishes such as Tandoori Paneer Vegetable Ravioli, Pan-Seared Black Cod Fillet with Sun-Dried Tomato Sambal, XO Sauce and Miso Jus and Pandan Tiramisu are as vivdly pleasing to the eye as they are to the palate.
