<p><b>America is a melting pot of cultures and traditions, and the food is no exception. Experience a sampling of the vast array of American cuisine with this beautiful collection of recipes from across the country, taking inspiration from around the globe.</b></p><p><b>"Thoughtful, well researched, and truly moving. Shines a light on what it means to cook and eat American food, in all its infinitely nuanced and ever-evolving glory." -Anthony Bourdain</b></p><p>American food is the story of mash-ups. Immigrants arrive, cultures collide, and out of the push-pull come exciting new dishes and flavors. But for Edward Lee, who, like Anthony Bourdain or Gabrielle Hamilton, is as much a writer as he is a chef, that first surprising bite is just the beginning. What about the people behind the food? What about the traditions, the innovations, the memories?</p><p>A natural-born storyteller, Lee decided to hit the road and spent two years uncovering fascinating narratives from every corner of the country. There's a Cambodian couple in Lowell, Massachusetts, and their efforts to re-create the flavors of their lost country. A Uyghur café in New York's Brighton Beach serves a noodle soup that seems so very familiar and yet so very exotic-one unexpected ingredient opens a window onto an entirely unique culture. A beignet from Café du Monde in New Orleans, as potent as Proust's madeleine, inspires a narrative that tunnels through time, back to the first Creole cooks, then forward to a Korean rice-flour <i>hoedduck</i> and a beignet dusted with matcha.</p><p>Sixteen adventures, sixteen vibrant new chapters in the great evolving story of American cuisine. And forty recipes, created by Lee, that bring these new dishes into our own kitchens.</p><p><b>Winner, 2019 James Beard Award for Best Book of the Year in Writing</b><br><b>Finalist, 2019 IACP Award, Literary Food Writing</b><br><b>Named a Best Food Book of the Year by the </b><i><b>Boston Globe, Smithsonian, BookRiot</b></i><b>, an
