Vietnamese cuisine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Modern Vietnamese cuisine is heavily influenced by the French colonists. However, traditional Vietnamese cuisine is similar to Chinese cooking, only instead of using soy sauce, they use fish sauce almost exclusively. Vietnamese recipes use a lot of lemon grass?, lime and kaffir lime?. They also have their own version of Buddhist vegatarian dishes.
