Review Ten Speed Press  / Charlie Trotter's Seafood Publication date: 1997-06
Dewey code: 641.692
List Price: $50.00
Price: $29.98

Review Charlie Trotter's Seafood / Ten Speed Press:

A collection of dishes featuring freshwater fish and seafood - each dish presented according to the wines with which they should be served. Over 100 recipes are accompanied by 75 duotones that convey the grandeur of the fish themselves. Charlie Trotter's in Chicago is rated as one of the finest restaurants in the world. Eating there is a leisurely and memorable experience because Chef Trotter is endlessly creative and meticulously precise in his cooking. He uses the best ingredients and says one should do as little as possible to embellish them. Does he practice what he preaches? In your dreams! The simplest of the 75 recipes in Charlie Trotter's Seafood are for dishes like Olive-Oil Roasted Swordfish with Oven-Roasted Tomato and Black Olives, and the Slow-Roasted Salmon with Red Wine Risotto, Wild Thyme and Tiny White Asparagus. His more typical, and even more breathtaking, creations are often based on Hawaiian fish, like Steamed Gindai and Mussels with Lemongrass Broth. On the plate these dishes are all as artistically arranged as they sound. This is food pornography at its peak. Every dish, as exotic and complex as a lesson from the Kama Sutra, is shown in gloriously intimate, obscenely alluring, vinaigrette-dotted detail by photographer Tim Turner. [+]
Ambitious cooks will appreciate Trotter's recommended piscatorial substitutions. Finding other ingredients, like bleeding heart radishes and shallot blossoms, is up to you. Not to mention making time to produce the infused oils and deeply flavored stocks often called for. The recipes are grouped, unexpectedly, by the wines best for accompanying them. Trotter starts with champagne and proceeds through 16 other kinds of wine, from white Viognier to red Syrah and Barbera. If complex, original cooking fascinates you, here is the chance to navigate an ocean of new seafood ideas and culinary combinations. -Dana Jacobi.

Review The Rustic Gourmet: Earthy Elegance from the Woods of Northern Michigan / Golightly Press:

It takes someone who truly knows "gourmet" to apply that concept to food that is considered "rustic. " For Marie Lapointe Hanis, the two descriptors are anything but contradictory. The practice of using fresh, seasonal ingredients from local and regional sources and preparing them simply but creatively - what the French have long referred to as la cuisine du marche - is now the latest trend in restaurants, cookbooks and home kitchens. Too often, Hanis had heard comments like, "I only like venison when it doesn't taste gamy. " In Rustic Gourmet, she teaches us to love that gamy taste and open our minds (and mouths) to other real flavors of the field, forest and waters by presenting them to us in irresistibly unique ways. Many a declared "gourmet" will be a "rustic" convert after savoring such delightful fare as: Huckleberry Scones; Cherry Pie Bread; Wild Violet Jam; Wild Duck Salad with Cracklings; Maple-Glazed Parsnips; Saffron Cod, Mock Tripe Club Style; Smoky Duck with Fennel and Apples; Morel Stuffed Grouse; Rabbit with Wild Leeks and Tomatoes; and Roast Venison with Pan Mint Sauce. During her years at Beaverdam, a hunting and fishing club nestled in Michigan's Pigeon River State Forest, Hanis wrote a column for a local paper in which she related lively tales about raising two sons in their cabin in the woods, often contrasting their upbringing to her own, in a very different atmosphere of Detroit in the 1960s. She has adapted many of those writings here, threading essays through the recipes. And what does Detroit Tiger announcer Ernie Harwell have to do with sour cream muffins? The answer is just one more delicious treat to savor in this intriguing combination of cookbook, entertaining anecdotes and "up north" memoir!.

Review Charlie Trotter's Meat and Game / Ten Speed Press:

Exotic meats like pheasant, duck, wild boar, and venison take their place alongside ever-versatile lamb, pork, and chicken; such robust fare proves to be the ultimate platform for Trotter's synthesis of French technique, Asian minimalism, and improvisational verve. Charlie Trotter's eponymous Chicago restaurant is one of America's finest. Awarded Outstanding Chef by the James Beard Foundation in 1999, Trotter has also published a number of cookbooks celebrating his unique cuisine. Charlie Trotter's Meat & Game, a welcome addition to his professional cooking series, follows the approach of the previous books: glamorously oversized and beautifully illustrated with color photos, it presents recipes-100 plus, in this case-that showcase Trotter's remarkable cooking. Most readers will want the book for armchair fantasizing rather than cooking from; the recipes almost uniformly require hard-to-find or costly ingredients (sometimes both) and painstaking preparations. But Meat & Game presents Trotter at his most imaginative; anyone interested in refined and magnificently conceived American cooking will treasure the book. In chapters devoted to game in all its manifestations-from antelope, boar, and grouse, to hare, partridge, and quail (and including also lamb, pig, rabbit, and duck, among others)-Trotter offers his glorious specialties. These include Sweet-and-Sour Braised Lettuce Soup with Foie Gras and Radishes; Steamed Pheasant Breast with Hen of the Woods Mushrooms, Black Trumpet Mushrooms, and Alba White Truffles; and Roasted Scottish Hare Loin with Green Garlic, Braised Tiny White Leeks, and Caper-Cornichon Egg White Vinaigrette. Trotter offers suggestions for substitutions (Venison with Mole and Cashew Vinaigrette can be made with beef, chicken, pork, or, interestingly, lobster) which, improved practicality aside, offer an expended sense of dish-creation Trotter-style. With wine notes, a section on "basic" preparations such as Shellfish Oil and Dried Pickle Chips, and a glossary, the book revels in a great chef's food dreams, which all can, in imagination at least, share.

Review Fish and Fish Dishes of Laos / Prospect Books (UK):

This is a reprinting of Alan Davidson's study of the fish cookery of Laos. It contains a catalogue of species, as well as a collection of recipes. There is also much information on cooking materials and ingredients. This book has been out of print for more than two decades and its reappearance is eagerly awaited. The critical thing to remember about the fish dishes of Laos is that there is no seaside and that all the fish live in the Mekong river and its tributaries. That great stream runs from China in the north to the Falls of Khong to the south. It forms the border between Laos and Bhurma (Myanmar), and Laos and Thailand.

Review Modern Indian Cooking / Silverback Books:

This book represents this author's take on modern Indian cuisine whether cooked for family or for guests, prepared using fresh ingredients and designed to accommodate the modern lifestyle. Indian cooking is often perceived as intimidating due to the use of a wide range of unusual ingredients and complex cooking procedures.

Throughout the book, Nayak and Khanna strive to bring traditional Indian cuisine to simplified levels fit for modern living and entertaining, while keeping the flavours and authenticity intact. "Modern Indian Cooking" celebrates the grandeur of the food of India while preserving the character of each region's distinctive style of cooking. While creating this book, Nayak and Khanna took into account the different ways we cook and eat food in modern life and the new kinds of ingredients that are now readily available. "Modern Indian Cooking" provides a wonderful insight into the richly diverse nation of Indian and the many flavours she brings to our tables.

Review Field to Feast The Remington Cookbook / Sporting Classics Publishing:

The phrase, straight shooter, is as American as apple pie, and there was a time when those words were an important link to another time-honored phrase, putting meat on the table. Today, however, most of us no longer live close to the land and we tend to associate the essentials for meal preparation with grocery store shelves and showcases rather than fields and forests. Yet, enjoying a game feast brings a special sense of self-satisfaction. Sitting down to a fine meal featuring game you have killed, cleaned and cooked offers a reward no food from a restaurant or meat market can match. The folks at Remington Arms Company, along with the untold millions of Americans who have hunted with Remington guns and ammunition for generation, are keenly aware of this aspect of the sporting experience. For them, the allure of the quest remains strong, and appreciation of the fact that the sportsman eats what he kills is a defining aspect of hunting ethics. This book is written with that sense of what is right and proper firmly in mind, but it is also intended to provide a culinary excursion into realms of pure pleasure. With the exception of a chapter where various Remington employees, past and present, share their favorite ways of preparing food, the recipes come from Jim and Ann Casada. For them, wild fare and its preparation is an integral part of daily life. Both grew up in homes where game on the family table was a mainstay of life. [+]
Over the years their shared background in game cookery, along with a love of the culinary arts, has led to the development of hundreds of recipes and publication of a number of widely acclaimed cookbooks. In these pages the Casadas offer a wide array of recipes ranging across the whole spectrum of game cookery. From sumptuous dishes featuring prime cuts of venison that would do a four-star restaurant proud to simple yet delicious soups and stews, you will find something for every taste. The authors recipes mirror their cooking philosophy.

Review Hardy Gingers: Including Hedychium, Roscoea, and Zingiber (Royal Horticultural Society Plant Collector Guide) / Timber Press, Incorporated:

Flamboyant members of the family Zingiberaceae-including Hedychium, Curcuma, Roscoea, and Zingiber-are once again on the wanted list as people discover their intricately constructed flowers, beautiful perfumes, and lush foliage. Although the majority of gingers originate in the tropics, a substantial number come from temperate zones or high altitudes and are perfectly at home in the temperate garden. These hardy gingers are the primary subject of this book. In the wild, gingers fit a variety of ecological niches, and diversity is the key to their success in the garden. They make dramatic focal points in tropical-style plantings but can look equally impressive in traditional herbaceous borders, woodland settings, rock gardens, water gardens and containers. Branney charts the history of gingers from their 19th-century heyday through modern-day hybridization programmes to the latest introductions of new species. A comprehensive plant directory ranges wide in its coverage. Valuable cultivation advice includes techniques for breaking dormancy, maintaining soil nutrition, and understanding individual plants' hardiness requirements. Captivating photographs complement the descriptions and convey the distinctive charms of these irresistible plants. This book brims with new finds that will tempt newcomers, delight enthusiasts, and ensure hardy gingers a place in every 21st-century garden.

Review Herbal Rhythms: Deciphering Herbal Codes / PublishAmerica:

Most herb books cover a wealth of knowledge about a great many herbs, and as such can be a bit more like encyclopedias than easy reference guides. Written with the intention of providing complete information about a select few, this book discusses fourteen herbs. These fourteen herbs are some of those most commonly purchased and used by the average gardener/cook in this country. I’ve attempted to provide a well-rounded picture of each from its place in history, medicinal and culinary attributes, optimal growth conditions, harvesting, recipes, and projects for children and adults alike. Included in each chapter are various different hints and suggestions regarding cultivation, storage, and utilization that pertain not only to the herb being discussed, but to all herbs.
