Gong, Z: Five Elements Cookbook de Zoey Xinyi Gong

Gong, Z: Five Elements Cookbook

Autor Zoey Xinyi Gong
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 feb 2023

Remarcăm tot mai des dorința de a transforma actul gătitului dintr-o simplă necesitate într-un ritual de vindecare, iar momentul în care decidem să ne echilibrăm sănătatea prin nutriție este contextul ideal pentru a deschide Gong, Z: Five Elements Cookbook. Scrisă de Zoey Xinyi Gong, un expert care îmbină rigoarea dieteticii moderne cu înțelepciunea milenară a Medicinei Tradiționale Chineze, această lucrare ne propune o abordare elegantă a conceptului de „aliment ca medicament”. Subliniem faptul că volumul nu se limitează la teorie, ci oferă un ghid vizual practic pentru ingrediente considerate adesea exotice, precum reishi sau ginsengul, învățându-ne să le integrăm natural în preparate cotidiene, de la granola cu goji la supe revigorante.

Ca și The Chinese Medicine Cookbook de Stacey Isaacs, acest titlu pune accent pe echilibrul energetic și sezonalitate, dar cu un stil propriu de prezentare, mult mai axat pe estetica vizuală și pe adaptabilitatea la restricțiile dietetice contemporane (vegan, fără gluten sau lactate). Reținem structura narativă a cărții care prioritizează nevoile specifice ale corpului: veți găsi soluții culinare pentru ameliorarea anxietății, îmbunătățirea digestiei sau sprijinirea sistemului respirator. Ritmul lecturii este unul așezat, invitând la introspecție și la înțelegerea propriei constituții înainte de a pune mâna pe cuțit. Nu este doar o carte de bucate, ci un instrument de îngrijire personală care transformă bucătăria într-un spațiu de refacere holistică.

Recenzii

The path toward modernizing or contemporizing ideas is through understanding the past. To grasp the philosophy of Chinese cuisine, one must begin with the intermingling of nourishment and medicine with food. Zoey gifts us with her deep knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine and how it can be utilized, even cross-culturally, in her recipes in The Five Elements Cookbook. I have found myself becoming more interested in TCM, and I am thankful to have this book now as a resource. The graphs and charts make the subject matter much easier to absorb, and the photos are a really useful reference for how to find these ingredients if you are shopping in Chinatown. When food is delicious and gives you health benefits, meals become more purposeful. — Brandon Jew, executive chef and owner of Mister Jiu’s and author of Mister Jiu’s in Chinatown
The Five Elements Cookbook is a wonderful introduction to Traditional Chinese Medicine food therapy. The section on Chinese herbs is an indispensable guide and beautifully photographed. — Grace Young, author of Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge and The Breath of a Wok
I am simply blown away by how wonderful The Five Elements Cookbook is. It is well researched, beautifully photographed, and, most important, practical. I am so excited for readers to roll up their sleeves and try the recipes! — Thomas N. Leung, DACM, CEO of Kamwo Meridian Herbs
The Five Elements Cookbook is a revelation—not just for how to cook using the elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine but also for how to think holistically about cooking and eating in a way that takes into account the needs of each individual. The book is a beautiful rumination on being in sync with nature and has served as a guide for me to view the world through fresh eyes. Even something as seemingly simple as the idea of opposition in ingredients being relative—to allow for the shifting of flavors depending on positionality and context—has been part of a new set of vocabulary and frameworks for me to think through my approach to food. This book has already been a fixture in my kitchen, and I can’t wait to read it over and over again. — Jenny Dorsey, chef, writer, and founder of Studio ATAO
Finally! A modern guide to incorporating traditional Chinese food therapy into our lives, with fun, creative, and simple recipes that will help you lead a healthier, more delicious life. — Danielle Chang, founder and CEO of LUCKYRICE
