The world's largest archipelago, Indonesia is made up of over
seventeen thousand islands. Located along the lines of ancient trade
routes, Indonesian culture has been saturated by the cultures of many
different countries from around the world. With staples such as rice,
saté, and gado-gado salad, Indonesian menus feature tropical fruits
and vegetables grown throughout the islands and savory spices such as
cumin and turmeric.

"These cookbooks feature recipes for such traditions fare as lamb
kebabs, as well as lower-fat and vegetarian dishes. Introductory
sections on each country's culture and cuisine provide excellent
material for school reports. Glossaries of exotic ingredients and
substitutions for hard-to-find items are included. Most recipes require
extensive adult supervision." - The Horn Book Guide
