Review Kettner's Book of the Table: A Manual of Cookery -- Practical, Theoretical, Historical (The Kegan Paul Library of Culinary History and Cookery) / Kegan Paul:Fashionable restaurants for public dining in the grand manner were a Victorian innovation, and in London there were few to rival that of Auguste Kettner, formerly chef to Napoleon III, who opened his Soho establishment in 1867. Kettner's quickly became renowned for champagne, gaiety and gastronomic delights, attracting the custom of leading members of society, the stage and the literary world including King Edward VII and Oscar Wilde. In 1877, Kettner was persuaded to share the benefit of his skill and knowledge of cookery, and this delightful book is the result. Witty, worldly and wonderfully wise, it is a culinary A to Z - from absinthe to zest - that embraces every Victorian speciality you might want to cook, eat or know about, embellished with anecdotes and gossip. There are recipes aplenty, given in the narrative style of the period, but this is much more than a cookbook - it is an intimate look at late Victorian and Edwardian society life in its privileged heyday.

Review The Traditional Dietary Culture of Southeast Asia / Kegan Paul:Foodways are the key to the strongest and deepest traces of human history, and this pioneering volume is a detailed study of the development of the traditional dietary culture of Southeast Asia, stretching from Laos and Vietnam to the Philippines and New Guinea. Beginning in the Paleolithic era and continuing to the present day, the author portrays the dietary life of the area and the many changes that have produced a cuisine that though influential and popular globally today has never before been studied in such depth. Beginning with the physical and social formation of the Southeast Asian world, the work covers the Neolithic food production economy, the ancient hunting cultures of the pre-European age, the development of agriculture and of alcoholic drink-making, the influence of the European colonial age on traditional dietary culture, the contemporary food practices of the area including agriculture and stock raising, and the ancient traditional foods that survive today, such as black sugar, fish sauce, and soybean products, which are so widely used in fusion cuisine. Here is the history behind Southeast Asian recipes and restaurant menus - a history of invasion, invention, and enslavement that is both fascinating and scholarly, supported by full geographical, archaeolgical, biological, and chemical data. Based largely upon Southeast Asian sources which have not been available up until now, this is essential reading for anyone interested in food, culinary history, and in an area of the word that is rapidly developing and changing.

Review Cocina de la Familia: More Than 200 Authentic Recipes from Mexican-American Home Kitchens / Diane Pub Co:Tausend traveled across the U. S. & Mexico, talking to hundreds of Mexican & Mexican-American (MA) cooks. These cooks have adapted the family dishes & traditions they remember to accommodate a life considerably different from the lives of their parents & grandparents. Here, you will find the real food eaten every day by MA families, whether they live in cities, border towns, farming communities, or isolated villages. Now you can re-create the vibrant flavors & rustic textures of this remarkable cuisine in your own kitchen. Most of the recipes are quite simple, & the more complex dishes, like moles & tamales, can be made in stages. So take a savory expedition across borders & generations. Winner, Julia Child Cookbook Award. Forget about the food you eat in what pass for Mexican restaurants in America; cleanse your palate, then come to this book. [+]For Marilyn Tausend reveals the truth, the whole truth: within these pages are the foods eaten in Mexican American households throughout the United States. After years of traveling all over Mexico (she coauthored Mexico the Beautiful Cookbook), meeting the best Mexican cooks and cooking teachers, and years of leading cooking tours to Mexico to share all that she had discovered, Marilyn Tausend came home, back to the U. S. -back to her roots, which include a childhood spent shoulder-to-shoulder with Mexican fieldworkers on farmlands throughout the West, sharing their food. Of the 13 million Americans who think of themselves as Mexican Americans, what, Tausend wondered, are they cooking at home today? And what she discovered as she crisscrossed the U. S. was that their roots run deep; these families stick together and trace their heritage back to the regions of Mexico from which they sprang, and the food tells the story. Mind you, a little Coca-Cola might get mixed in with a dish today, and canola oil might well be used instead of lard; after all, times change, and people change with them. But some elements, Tausend discovered, stay basically the same: a strong sense of family and a delight in bringing a big family together to eat. Crack open this book, use the recipes, and fill your house full of the love that comes from serving-and eating-real food. Let Marilyn Tausend show you how; you couldn't be in better hands.

Review Pennsylvania Dutch Country Cooking / Artabras Publishers:With more than 100 original recipes to choose from, readers can create such delights as crusty farm breads, peasant one-pot dinners, and luscious spring soups in the traditions of classic Pennsylvania Dutch cookery as it has evolved over the past 300 years. 175 illustrations. Long before the rest of America decided to get back to healthy basics in their cooking and eating habits, the Pennsylvania Dutch were happily living off the land. Among their fertile, rolling hills and lush green fields, these farm folk speak about their distinctive cuisine in a language that, in some parts of the United States, has been spoken longer than English. Pennsylfaanisch names grace every recipe in Pennsylvania Dutch Country Cooking, and to help non-Pennsylfaanisch speakers with pronunciation, there's a guide and even a glossary of additional food terms. But what's in a name? It's the cooking that counts in this compendium of more than 100 authentic recipes that are both delicious and healthy. There are recipes for breads, soups and noodles, meats, vegetables, and even a section for special holiday feasts. There are beverages such as Wheatland Harvest Tea, made from spearmint, lemon balm, tarragon, and bergamot leaves; desserts such as Hickory Nut Dumplings, served with stewed peaches; and recipes for rye, buckeye, sourdough, and potato breads, among many others. As if the recipes alone weren't enough, Pennsylvania Dutch Country Cooking is brimming with photographs of the countryside, the gardens, the people, and, of course, the foods of this special place. This is a book that feeds the soul as well as the body, a feast for the eyes as well as the table.
