21 SEP: Amazon River cruise company Aqua Expeditions has produced its own cookbook.
It’s the work of executive chef Pedro Miguel Schiaffino, who uses local ingredients for most of his dishes.
Aqua says his cuisine has been acclaimed by restaurateurs and chefs who’ve sailed with Aqua, including famous Japanese chef Nobu Matsuhisa.
Mr Matsuhisa has been quoted as predicting that chef Schiaffino’s approach to cooking "will change how Peruvian cuisine is perceived throughout the world".
The new cookbook features Amazonian and Peruvian recipes, from cocktails and starters to mains and desserts.
