Avatar: The Last Airbender: The Official Cookbook features character introductions for each chapter, weaving in a piece of their nation’s history and beautiful full-page photography. It’s a great way to ground the cookbook in the iconic series, with many characters appearing, including Azula. This cookbook effectively stays true to the essence of the series by referencing the Hundred Year War, highlighting the vegetarian tendencies of different nations, and discussing their unique cooking styles. As a fan of the series, I enjoyed seeing the Simple Steamed Vegetables and Momo’s Moon Peaches featured in the cookbook.
Each recipe includes the expected prep and cook time, serving size, required ingredients, and start-to-finish instructions. Many recipes use common ingredients, with the occasional pistachio or specialty meat required. Culinarians praise the Kale Cookies, Aunt Wu’s Bean Curd Puffs, the ease of most dishes, and the beverages!
