"Finally, an ethnic cookbook that truly celebrates the nourishing qualities of traditional diets! Through The Nourishing Asian Kitchen, Sophia Nguyen Eng empowers the home cook to rely upon ferments, broths, high-quality fats, and even offal to create authentically healthy dishes. This book is exactly what we need to help confront a global foodscape that has been cheapened by the industrial food system to the point that it is making us sick."

“The best recipes are often those handed down from parents to their children—the dishes you learn to cook in your mother’s and grandmother’s kitchen. Sophia Nguyen Eng brings that culinary heritage to the forefront in her gorgeous cookbook. The Nourishing Asian Kitchen is a beautiful celebration of flavor, family, and nutrient-dense cooking. Her Bun Bo Hue has become a fast favorite in our home.”

“What an extraordinary book! I’d say cookbook but this truly is so much more. Eng doesn’t just say ‘Here’s my food and gorgeous photographs,’ she takes us into the most intimate of places, her home, and shows us how we too can feed our families in ours. Packed not just with delicious and practical recipes, it also has important, and oft overlooked, advice on nutrition, sourcing, indigenous medicines, and closed loop systems.”
A first-generation Vietnamese American, Sophia Nguyen Eng left a successful Silicon Valley career in growth marketing to start a 5-acre permaculture mini farm in the Appalachian region of eastern Tennessee. Eng took a greater interest to better understand where her food comes from because it ties directly into health, and she wanted to provide the best for her family and community. While working in tech, Eng led successful growth marketing campaigns for startups and Fortune 500 companies like Workday, Autodesk, Smartsheet, and InVision, which led to opportunities to develop a certificate training program with CXL Institute and being a founder for the tech organization Women in Growth. A sought-after speaker, she has presented at Google HQ, GrowthHackers, and the global SaaStalk tech conferences, and uses her experiences and knowledge of food, farming and health to speak at regenerative agriculture conferences, including sharing the stage with Joel Salatin at Polyface Farm. Eng is also a Weston A. Price chapter leader and the founder of the website Sprinkle With Soil and the Call to Farms podcast. With her husband, Tim, she raises grass-fed dairy cows and beef cattle, laying hens, broilers, ducks, sheep, goats, turkeys, and grows a variety of produce for her multigenerational family and local community.
