To celebrate her husband's Central-European (Mittel Europe) heritage, Kati Urszenyi has compiled some of her family's favorite sweet recipes into one sweet book. It is called Sweet Decadence: Memories of an era when sweets were sweet and is a collection of rich sophisticated desserts handed down to Kati through her husband's family. These recipes have been written down in Gabor's family for four generations. Presented with a double focus, on a vanished past and what we can do with it now, this is much more than a collection of recipes from was then and what now Authentic, delicious and doable. Translated across time and space, this collection of a family's recipes helps us understand why the Austro-Hungarian Empire found its culinary apotheosis in desserts - pastries, cakes, squares, slices, and cookies - of incomparable excellence. Made with readily available and all-natural ingredients, these recipes can now be prepared with our modern equipment, with less effort but no loss of texture and flavor. The author brings us a deeply felt, living, dense memory of how life was lived in the Old Country then, back a few generations, and also gives us some glimpses of how these have survived in her kitchen in Canada and her family's festivities, by way of these recipes and all they represent of a shared social history. And they're just plain exciting and simple, direct, and make any occasion: a holiday, special event or an everyday meal, a big party or an intimate afternoon tea, kids' after-school snacks or your own private pick-me-up.

Edward Bunyard
R398 Discovery Miles 3 980 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

"Filled with quirky surprises and things you would have never thought to ask, Bunyard's celebration of fruit is endlessly entertaining."
-Mark Kurlansky, author of "Salt," "Cod," and "The Big Oyster"
When we think of dessert, our mind's eye sees cakes, pies, and pastries. Yet the truly creative palate imagines things even more tempting, decadent, and, yes, sinful. So claims Edward Bunyard in this delectable paean to the wonderful fruits of the vine, from apples and apricots to gooseberries and strawberries, from pears to the grapes that give us wine.
Bunyard, a nurseryman at the turn of the last century, lovingly devotes a chapter to each fruit, sharing a heartfelt disquisition on the many types of strawberries, in which bigger is not always better; revealing how denizens of cooler and warmer climes differ in their perceptions about grapes; and asserting that "immoderate indulgence" in melon has toppled great dynasties and changed the course of history. Bunyard even offers advice on the most delightful wine and fruit pairings, and settles once and for all the debate that has raged for nearly three millennia: Which are tastier, hothouse figs or the outdoor variety.
Introduced by Michael Pollan, "The Anatomy of Dessert" is a cornucopia of wisdom that's never out of season. It is time again to savor this classic work, first published in 1929, that gives above-the-title billing to the myriad foodstuffs we often refer to as "afters." So come and partake in the fruits of Edward Bunyard's labor of love.
