Click for more info First edition, second printing, of this cookbook compiled by the American Women’s Association of Djakarta, featuring a collection of recipes highlighting both mid-century American favorites and Asian classics. The ex-pat women who edited this collection set out to produce a book that would reflect the friendships they had developed residing in Indonesia, as well as the influence of the new cuisines they had experienced there. Accordingly, this work features an appealing mix of traditional American recipes (occasionally enlivened by Asian ingredients) and authentic recipes from Indonesia, Japan, and China. Also included are a collection of helpful household tips as well as recipes for play-doh and other American favorites that would have been difficult to acquire abroad. A fine copy.
