Through a Sparkling Glass will both educate and entertain you on
the wonder and joy of wine and its place in our lives and culture.
From the importance of ageing (wine and people) to Champagne cork
removal the correct way, Epicurus to Ernest Hemingway, Moscato to
Rose, and the notion ofauthentic wine happiness. An A-Z of wine
stories, information and life lessons. Each essay or entry
concludes with a list of key facts about the particular subject.
Through a Sparkling Glass firmly places wine and all its wonder at
the centre of our enjoyment of life and culture and the way we live
our lives. Entries cover aspects of wine production, varieties,
history and myth, tradition and custom, modern manners, the
philosophy of life and celebrating the mystery of wine. A delight
to dip into, Through a Sparkling Glass will inform you in the most
entertaining way and introduce you to pleasures found in your wine
glass. The book taps into the emerging 'emotional palate' category
of wine writers such as Alice Fiering (US) and Terry Thiesse (US).
This has been successfully replicated in food writing and
literature. A perfect book for those who love wine, food and the
finer things in life. As well as those who want to enhance their
knowledge of wine but want an entertaining way to attain that
information. The book will be a well-designed gift package making
it the perfect gift for intelligent men or women whoenjoy wine as
part of a sophisticated mix of culinary delights rather than as an
academic or technical pursuit. This book lifts wine writing out of
the niche market full of technical information and into the domain
of human engagement and real life where wine is enjoyed and broadly
experienced.
While 4% of the population suffers from diagnosed lactose
intolerance, it is estimated that a staggering 50 million Americans
suffer from some degree of dairy intolerance/allergy. Moreover,
recent research has linked milk protein (casein) to cancer and
autoimmune illnesses and found evidence that our bodies quit making
the enzymes necessary to digest milk as we age--thus setting up
those who consume a dairy-rich diet for IBS, allergies and other
autoimmune and digestive difficulties. Dairy has become the "new
gluten"--something that people are realizing needs to be minimized
in our diet whether they have a formally diagnosed allergy or not.

Slegs volwassenes ... Dis kostelik om te sien hoe iemand wat 'n
happie neem van wat op die oog af soos 'n doodgewone kolwyntjie lyk
en dan uitvind dat dit eintlik 'n kinkel in die vorm van 'n gewilde
drankie bevat, se gesig ophelder. Die skrywer van Kolwyntjies met
skop het baie jare in die buiteland deurgebring waar haar man
gewerk het, en daar begin eksperimenteer met kolwyntjies wat
alkohol in verskeie vorms bevat. Sy kon sommer gou skaars voorbly
om in die vraag daarna te voorsien. Hierdie versameling resepte is
deeglik getoets, verfyn en waar nodig aangepas om te verseker dat
hulle feitlik flatervry is. Sommige kolwyntjies se versiering bevat
likeur, by ander is daar wyn of bier in die beslag self, en by
verskeie word jou hap na die middel toe beloon met 'n verleidelike,
loperige binnekant van die gewildste skemerkelkies.
Stap-vir-stap-aanwysings verduidelik presies hoe elke kolwyntjie
gemaak word, en hoewel dit in hierdie boek nie gaan oor
koekversiering as sodanig nie, sluit die skrywer fantastiese idees
in om die kolwyntjies so op te dollie dat dit so 'n ietsie van die
ongewone aard daarvan weerspieel. Die lieflike volbladfoto's van
elke baksel kolwyntjies sal selfs die traagste bakker aanspoor om
die resepte op die proef te stel, en die nuttige wenke wat
deurgaans verskyn, sal help om sukses te verseker. Daar is ook
heelwat voorstelle vir alternatiewe en aanbevelings vir
plaasvervangers as jy nie spesifieke drankies in die drankkabinet
het nie. Met omskakeltabelle, basiese inligting oor kolwyntjies en
feite oor alkohol en hoe dit in beslag en versiersuiker reageer,
het jy toegang tot alles wat jy moet weet om jou eie kolwyntjies
met skop te bak. Of jou gunstelingdrankie Pina Colada of
blos-vonkelwyn, Mai Tai of chardonnay is, hierdie boek wil jy he -
laatmiddagtee sal net nooit weer dieselfde wees nie!

Retreat to the countryside with shepherdess Amanda Owens as she
recounts stories from her life on the farm, of raising nine
children and cooking beautiful, seasonal meals - complete with the
recipes for you to enjoy at home. This edition of Celebrating the
Seasons is updated with more heartwarming stories from the farm at
Ravenseat. In the Sunday Times bestseller Celebrating the Seasons,
the Yorkshire Shepherdess shares funny and charming stories about
life with her family and their many four-legged charges and
describes their activities at Ravenseat, from lambing and shearing
in spring to haymaking in summer and feeding the flock in
midwinter. She vividly evokes the famous Swaledale landscape, from
the sweeping moors to rare wildflowers and elusive hares glimpsed
in the field. Amanda lives in tune with nature, and her attitude to
food is the same. She believes in using good, seasonal ingredients
when it comes to feeding her family, and includes some of her
favourite recipes here, from wild garlic lamb with hasselback
potatoes to rhubarb and custard crumble cake and Yorkshire curd
tart. The book also includes her Dalesman columns, published in
book form for the first time and giving new insights into her life.
As charming as Amanda herself, this book will delight everyone who
has followed her adventures so far.
