Cooking from China's Fujian Province (NY: Hippocrene Books, August, 2008) explores the people and foods from a province across the Straits from Taiwan. With roots in seven early Min tribes, the foods of this province benefit from an abundance of wild and cultivated foods from its mountains and fertile flatlands and access to many animals living in both, and those found in the waters along and beyond its extensive coastline. Fujianese food influences benefit from the comings and going of a people who were and still are frequent land and seafarers, now air travelers.
