Raquel Pelzel at Voracious has acquired James Beard Award-winning chef Yia Vang’s Vinai, the first major cookbook to celebrate Hmong cuisine and culture. Highlighted by the story of his family's journey from the Ban Vinai refugee camp in Thailand to the midwestern United States, and honoring the sacrifices his parents made to enable the launch of his celebrated Minneapolis restaurant, Vang’s cookbook will feature bold recipes rooted in tradition such as Roast Hilltribe Chicken with Tiger Bite Sauce, Grilled Duck Laab, and Hmong Sausage over Purple Rice with Mustard Greens.
