Description

If bok choy has carved out a special place for itself on Western shelves, many other Asian vegetables remain little-known. However, these are tasty and nutritious plants, which are grown very well in temperate, and even northern, climates!
Caroline, Stéphanie and Patricia Ho-Yi Wang, three sisters of Cantonese origin, have given themselves the mission of making people discover and love these vegetables in a unique work of its kind, at the crossroads of the gardening guide, the cookbook and the family story.

Revolving around 15 Asian vegetables presented to the rhythm of the seasons, the book offers organic growing and harvesting advice, intended for both Sunday gardeners and aspiring market gardeners, in addition to conservation techniques and nutritional information. and cooking methods. Around forty recipes, some of which have been developed by renowned chefs, are also offered.

The Wang sisters also explore the world of Asian vegetables from a cultural point of view, retracing the place they occupied in their own lives and that of their family, some of whom left China to emigrate to Madagascar before settling in Quebec.
