Videgård turns his attention from Sichuan to Vietnam in this compact, beautifully photographed collection of 28 recipes that traces a culinary journey from Hanoi in the north through Hue and Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh City in the south.

Why Read This

After the success of Facing Heaven, Videgård applies the same approach to Vietnamese cooking: personal, curated, and adapted for Scandinavian home cooks. The book captures the regional diversity of Vietnamese cuisine, from the heartier broths of the north to the sweeter, herb-heavy dishes of the south, with practical advice on sourcing and substitution.

What to Expect

A short, focused cookbook with 28 recipes of varying difficulty. Strong noodle dishes, fresh salads, and plenty of herbs. Beautiful photography by Joel Wäreus. At 102 pages, it is a curated introduction rather than an encyclopedia.
