We dream of distant white-fringed coral atolls in a tropical, deep blue ocean; a place where sea and wind rule and every morning brings another day of freedom. The daily rhythm of the Pacific is unfettered by modern life – routines and rituals have remained unchanged for centuries. Here, you will find an extrordinary bounty of exotic fruits and vegetables, fresh seafood and, from the rainforest, harvests of wild aromatics such as ginger, galangal, vanilla and chillies. Add in a rich culinary heritage drawn from the entire Pacific Rim and beyond, and discover a new world of exciting flavours and tastes. Join Annabel as she explores the ingredients of the Pacific and the vibrant new cuisine they inspire.
"Eagerly thumbed for delicious recipes and dreamily browsed for its stunning photography, Savour The Pacific has become my all-time favourite cookbook. Annabel Langbein's recipes have been inspired by the flavours and produce of the Pacific Islands rather than the traditional subsistence island fare. As a result, although both exotic and imaginative, the recipes require only every-day ingredients and are unfailingly simple to recreate. For the cook who enjoys the fresh flavours of limes, ginger, chilli and coriander this book is a veritable treasure trove. Each and every recipe is a winner. However, it is Kieran Scott's evocative photography of the people, places and produce of the Pacific Islands that elevates this book beyond the realms of the ordinary. Fresh, vibrant and inspiring, Savour The Pacific is a culinary and visual delight." – Amazon reviewer
