Spices, Salt and Aromatics in the English Kitchen

Spices, Salt and Aromatics in the English Kitchen by Elizabeth David

" T he most incredibly sophisticated compendium of all that is good in British cooking" by the renowned author of An Omelette and a Glass of Wine (Jeremy Lee, The Guardian ).   Elizabeth David presents a collection of English recipes using spices, salt, and aromatics. The book includes dishes such as briskets and spiced beef, smoked fish, cured pork and sweet fruit pickles. An emphasis is placed on the influence of India, the Middle East, and the Far East on the English kitchen.   "David is in her element; the prose sings, and the song is paean to the exotica that she craved. Even her treatment of a subject ordinarily as prosaic as measurements feels fresh forty years later. . . . She demolishes the canard that traditional British food is limited and bland." — British Food in America   "[David] demonstrates the varied and diverse nature of English cooking, identifying its many influences over the centuries resulting from trade with other nations. In fact the book is less a selection of recipes than an historical journey through countries that have influenced the English addiction to spices. . . . This is an exceptional, well-researched book. An informative and enjoyable read which at the same time doubles as a useful reference tool." — The Caterer   "A lovely variety of well-flavored dishes from many countries." — The Art of Eating

From Scratch - Michael Ruhlman Cover Art

From Scratch

From Scratch 10 Meals, 175 Recipes, and Dozens of Techniques You Will Use Over and Over by Michael Ruhlman

From the James Beard Award-winning, New York Times -bestselling author. "Through the recipes for 10 classic meals, he covers how to cook almost anything." —Ina Garten, the Barefoot Contessa From Scratch  looks at ten favorite meals, including roast chicken, the perfect omelet, and paella—and then, through 175 recipes, explores myriad alternate pathways that the kitchen invites. A delicious lasagna can be ready in about an hour, or you could turn it into a project: try making and adding some homemade sausage. Explore the limits of from-scratch cooking: make your own pasta, grow your own tomatoes, and make your own homemade mozzarella and ricotta. Ruhlman tells you how.  There are easy and more complex versions for most dishes, vegetarian options, side dishes, sub-dishes, and strategies for leftovers. Ruhlman reflects on the ways that cooking from scratch brings people together, how it can calm the nerves and focus the mind, and how it nourishes us, body and soul.  "Like a master chef clarifying a murky stock into a crystal-clear consommé, Ruhlman detangles the complex web of technique, myth, and folklore that is cooking . . . The lessons are set up in such a way that you can decide exactly how deep a dive you want to take, though with a guide like Ruhlman at your side, that's most likely a mouth-first leap straight into the deep end." —J. Kenji López-Alt, New York Times -bestselling-author of The Wok "He's like a good friend joining you in the kitchen, and this book will certainly become the home cook's trusted companion." —Thomas Keller, chef/proprietor, The French Laundry

Steak

Steak One Man's Search for the World's Tastiest Piece of Beef by Mark Schatzker

The definitive book on steak has never been written-until now "Of all the meats, only one merits its own structure. There is no such place as a lamb house or a pork house, but even a small town can have a steak house." So begins Mark Schatzker's ultimate carnivorous quest. Fed up with one too many mediocre steaks, the intrepid journalist set out to track down, define, and eat the perfect specimen. His journey takes him to all the legendary sites of steak excellence-Texas, France, Scotland, Italy, Japan, Argentina, and Idaho's Pahsimeroi Valley-where he discovers the lunatic lengths steak lovers will go to consume the perfect cut. After contemplating the merits of Black Angus, Kobe, Chianina, and the prehistoric aurochs-a breed revived by the Nazis after four hundred years of extinction-Schatzker adopts his own heifer, fattens her on fruit, acorns, and Persian walnuts, and then grapples with ambivalence when this near-pet appears on his plate. Reminiscent of both Bill Bryson's and Bill Buford's writing, Steak is a warm, humorous, and wide-ranging read that introduces a wonderful new travel and food writer to the common table.

Cucina vegetale che spacca - Annalisa Chessa Cover Art

Cucina vegetale che spacca

Cucina vegetale che spacca Sapori e profumi dall'Italia e dal mondo by Annalisa Chessa

«Il ragù vegano è il mio “punto zero”. Essendo uno dei miei piatti preferiti – o, meglio, la lasagna alla bolognese è uno dei miei piatti preferiti –, è la prima ricetta che ho provato a veganizzare quando sono diventata vegana. Non volevo rinunciare a quel comfort food che mi accompagnava sin da bambina. Per me la lasagna voleva dire mia madre che il giorno prima di ogni festa preparava il ragù lasciandolo cuocere lentamente, voleva dire aiutarla e, un po’ annoiata, stare a mescolare la besciamella sul fuoco per interminabili minuti, voleva dire l’intera tavola tappezzata di panni da cucina dove poggiare le sfoglie pronte sbollentate nell’acqua. E poi ancora voleva dire sedermi a tavola per pranzo, felice, sapendo che finalmente avrei riassaggiato quei sapori che amo così tanto, e che avrei potuto fare il bis la sera stessa, perché mia madre, sapendo quanto mi piacesse quel piatto, ne preparava due teglie. Così, nel lontano 2016, decisa a veganizzare il mondo, mi misi a cercare su internet un modo per cucinare il ragù vegetale e, con estrema felicità, scoprii non solo che era possibile, ma anche molto semplice.» Il cibo, attraverso le ricette, ci può portare in Paesi lontani, mai visitati, oppure ricondurci nei nostri luoghi del cuore, restituendoci profumi, sapori e colori che credevamo persi. Questo libro parla proprio di questo, di quei piatti che segnano la nostra vita, lasciando un marchio incancellabile nella memoria. Qui ogni ricetta, ogni “grande classico” italiano o internazionale, è anche un manifesto, il portavoce di una cucina vegetale cruelty free che ci dice che possiamo ritornare ai piatti delle nostre terre, dei nostri viaggi, della nostra memoria in un modo più etico, senza perdere sapori e profumi indimenticabili. Una rivisitazione che ad alcuni sembrerà un atto sovversivo. E invece è solo cucina vegetale che spacca.

Spice is a cookbook like no other--one that will help you better understand the science behind the art of cooking with spices.

Spice profiles--organized by flavor groups such as "pungent," "sweet," or "nutty"--showcase each of the world's spices and suggest food pairings, spice pairings, blend ideas, and how to cook each spice to best release its flavor and aroma. Finally, spicy recipes for blends, butters, rubs, and pastes showcase authentic spice mixes from around the world, and suggest innovative combinations that you might never have considered before.

Despite its humble ingredients—made of merely flour and water or flour and eggs—the magic, rituals, and art of pasta making span over five centuries. Two ingredients are turned into hundreds of stuffed, rolled, extruded, dried, stamped, and hand-cut shapes, each with its own unique provenance and enrobed in a favored sauce. New York City chef Missy Robbins fell in love with Italian food and pasta twenty-five years ago. She has been cooking, researching, and studying her way across Italy ever since, which led her to open two of America’s most renowned pasta restaurants, Lilia and Misi. With illustrated step-by-step recipes for handmaking forty of the most versatile pasta shapes and one hundred recipes for Italian American, regional Italian, and Robbins’s own best pasta dishes, plus two dozen vegetable sides, this is the hard-working manual for home cooks who aspire to master the art of pasta cooking. Whether making pasta sheets for lasagna or stamping out pasta “coins” for Corzetti with Goat Cheese and Asparagus—or even buying handmade pasta to make Tagliatelle with Porcini, Rosemary, and Garlic—Robbins provides all the inspiration, instruction, and encouragement required to make pasta exceptionally well. Evocatively photographed with nearly 100 full-color mouthwatering photos of pasta dishes and twenty images from Italy, this is a richly illustrated ode to the ingredients, recipes, and craft that have made pasta the most popular fare of a beloved cuisine.
