Review African American Food Culture (Food Cultures in America) / Greenwood Press:Like other Americans, African Americans partake of the general food offerings available in mainstream supermarket chains across the country. Food culture, however, may depend on where they live and their degree of connection to traditions passed down through generations since the time of slavery. Many African Americans celebrate a hybrid identity that incorporates African and New World foodways. The state of African American food culture today is illuminated in depth here for the first time, in the all-important context of understanding the West African origins of most African Americans of today. A historical overview discusses the beginnings of this hybrid food culture when Africans were forcibly removed from their homelands and brought to the United States. Chapter 2 on Major Foods and Ingredients details the particular favorites of what is considered classic African American food. In Chapter 3, Cooking, the African American family of today is shown to be like most other families with busy lives, preparing and eating quick meals during the week and more leisurely meals on the weekend. Special insight is also given on African American chefs. The Typical Meals chapter reflects a largely mainstream diet, with regional and traditional options. Chapter 6, Eating Out, highlights the increasing opportunities for African Americans to dine out, and the attractions of fast meals. [+]The Special Occasions chapter discusses all the pertinent occasions for African Americans to prepare and eat symbolic dishes that reaffirm their identity and culture. Finally, the latest information in traditional African American diet and its health effects brings readers up to date in the Diet and Health chapter. Recipes, photos, chronology, resource guide, and selected bibliography round out the narrative.

Review Pillsbury Best of the Bake-Off Cookbook: Recipes from America's Favorite Cooking Contest: Updated Edition with a New Quick & Easy Main Meals Chapter! (Random House Large Print) / Random House Large Print:For over 50 years, people have looked to one contest for the most delicious, the most exciting and the most uniquely American recipes this country's home cooks have to offer. The Pillsbury Bake-Off® Contest presents the very best of what people today are cooking for their families and friends. Now, nearly 400 prizewinning recipes from this famed event are gathered in one book, complete with gorgeous color photographs and personal profiles highlighting the people who created the recipes. The first Bake-Off® Contest, in 1949, celebrated the culinary trends of the times—recipes were made from scratch, the ingredient lists and steps were lengthy and breads and desserts comprised the bulk of the entries. Today's Bake-Off® entries mirror the changing trends in home cooking with recipes that are quicker and easier to prepare. The use of convenience products has increased and flavors from around the world are featured, as reflected in a brand-new chapter: Quick & Easy Main Meals. Chicken Florentine Panini, the 2002 Grand Prize winner, is an Italian sandwich that gets its fresh-baked goodness from refrigerated pizza-crust dough. Bow-Thai Chicken takes a frozen stir=fry meal starter and combines it with the wonderful flavors of a Thai peanut sauce. Pillsbury Best of the Bake-Off® Cookbook illustrates how home cooks have captured their ethnic heritages in dishes adapted from their grandparents' countries to modern kitchens and busier times. The stories are as inspiring as the recipes themselves, from 1996's Grand Prize winner, Kurt Wait, a single parent who developed his $1,000,000-winning recipe, Macadamia Fudge Torte, with the help of his son, to a 2002 winner for her Gnocchi Alfredo Casserole, Kelly Lynne Baxter, who remembers learning to cook alongside her mom and aunts. [+]All the recipes are organized by easy-to-use chapters: Soups, Sandwiches and Snacks; Main Dishes; Side Dishes and Salads; Breads; Sweet Rolls and Coffee Cakes; Cookies and Bars; Cakes and Tortes; Pies and Tarts; and Other Desserts; as well as the new chapter, Quick & Easy Main Meals. Each chapter is filled with wonderful and often humorous behind-the-scenes stories from the Bake-Off® Contest events. The recipes are sensational; the storeis are uplifting. Pillsbury Best of the Bake-Off® Cookbook invites you into the kitchens and lives of the many people who have made the Pillsbury Bake-Off® Contest the most loved and respected showplace for everyone to share their creative cooking talents.

Review Indian Grill: The Art of Tandoori Cooking at Home / Ecco:In the last decade, Indian food has grown ever more popular throughout North America. Now, in this one-of-a-kind cookbook, Smita Chandra introduces the ancient art of tandoori cooking, modified for a kitchen or backyard grill. Since most home chefs in America don't have access to a tandoor - a large clay oven sunk into the ground and layered with glowing charcoal - Chandra spent years perfecting traditional tandoori recipes for the home grill. In Indian Grill, she presents a complete range of over 100 dishes, from vegetables and chicken to seafood and lamb, with accompanying raitas, chutneys, and dips. Other chapters are devoted to appetizers and drinks, basic sauces, soups and salads, and rice. Recipe headnotes offer the reader a culinary history, evoking the beguiling tastes, smells, and sights of India. Among the mouth-watering recipes are Machali Masala (grilled breaded salmon steaks marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices); Achari Kabobs (lamb marinated in pickling spices, onions, and vinegar); and Thayir Pachadi (cucumber with grilled potatoes, onions, and tomatoes in yogurt); as well as many others. Vegetarians, who often have little choice at barbecues, will find a sumptuous selection of vegetable dishes, such as Baingan Kashmiri (baby eggplant coated in a sweet-and-sour tamarind fennel sauce served with grilled apples). Ideal for both the summer backyard barbecue and the indoor kitchen grill, Indian Grill is a fresh, flavorful, and healthy take on Indian cooking, tandoori style.

Review Spice: Flavors of the Eastern Mediterranean / Regan Books:On a trip to Turkey as a young woman, chef Ana Sortun fell in love with the food and learned the traditions of Turkish cooking from local women. Inspired beyond measure, Sortun opened her own restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the award-winning Oleana, where she creates her own interpretations of dishes incorporating the incredible array of delicious spices and herbs used in eastern regions of the Mediterranean. In this gorgeously photographed book, Sortun shows readers how to use this philosophy of spice to create wonderful dishes in their own homes. She reveals how the artful use of spices and herbs rather than fat and cream is key to the full, rich flavors of Mediterranean cuisine - and the way it leaves you feeling satisfied afterward. The book is organized by spice, detailing the ways certain spices complement one another and how they flavor other foods and creating in home cooks a kind of sense-memory that allows for a more intuitive use of spice in their own dishes. The more than one hundred tantalizing spice categories and recipes include: Beef Shish Kabobs with Sumac Onions and Parsley Butter Chickpea and Potato Terrine Stuffed with Pine Nuts, Spinach, Onion, and Tahini Crispy Lemon Chicken with Zaatar Golden Gazpacho with Condiments Fried Haloumi Cheese with Pear and Spiced Dates Absolutely alive with spices and herbs, Ana Sortuns recipes will intrigue and inspire readers everywhere.
