«Heavenly Fragrance» introduces the art of using Asia's most aromatic cooking ingredients to prepare food with wonderful fragrances to excite both the palate and sense of smell. Since over three quarters of what we taste in fact comes from smell, the aromas produced by our food are vitally important to the enjoyment that comes from eating. Inspired by fond memories of fragrant cooking since her childhood days, author Carol Selva Rajah has included in this book a collection of new and traditional Southeast Asian dishes for anyone wishing to serve the best flavors of the East at home. With chapters on aromatic herbs and flowers, aromatic fruits and nuts, and aromatic spices, pastes and seasonings, these recipes will incite the senses and inspire the soul.»

In today's busy world, the lives of ancient tea masters, living in mountainside huts and picking tea leaves fresh off wild plants, may seem so inapplicable to our hectic lives as to be for our purposes mere myths. The Way of Tea shows modern readers how you can bring this serenity to your daily life. You don't need a mountainside hut or hours for endless contemplation; just a few quiet moments with a steaming cup of your favourite tea. Aaron Fisher, noted tea expert and author, shows readers how in the modern world the way of tea does not need to be some sombre religious ceremony held in dimly lit halls by a bunch of solemn monks chanting between sips, but can instead be a path for anyone to experience and share inner peace, relax the ego, and be free and open-an excellent recipe for a life well lived.
