The Brooklyn destination the "New York Times" called "one of the
most extraordinary restaurants in the country"--which began as a
pizza place and quickly redefined the urban food
landscape--releases its highly anticipated debut cookbook.
When Roberta's opened in 2008 in a concrete bunker in Bushwick, it
was a pizzeria where you could stop in for dinner and stumble out
hours later, happy. It's still a down-the-rabbit-hole kind of place
but has also become a destination for groundbreaking food, a wholly
original dining experience, and a rooftop garden that marked the
beginning of the urban farming movement in New York City. The
forces behind Roberta's--chef Carlo Mirarchi and co-owners Brandon
Hoy and Chris Parachini--share recipes, photographs, and stories
meant to capture the experience of Roberta's for those who haven't
been, and to immortalize it for those who've been there since the
beginning.
While still in high school, Tovar Cerulli experimented with
vegetarianism and by the age of twenty, he was a vegan. Ten years
later, in the face of declining health, he would find himself
picking up a rifle and heading into the woods.
Through his personal quest, Tovar Cerulli bridges disparate
worldviews and questions moral certainties, challenging both the
behavior of many hunters and the illusion of blamelessness
maintained by many vegetarians. In this time of intensifying
concern over ecological degradation, how do we make peace with the
fact that, even in growing organic vegetables, life is sustained by
death? Drawing on personal anecdotes, philosophy, history and
religion, Cerulli shows how America s overly sanitized habits of
consumption and disconnection with our food have resulted in so
many of the health and environmental crises we now face."
An authoritative and easy-to-use guide to fermentation with 100+ recipes for fermented foods and drinks.
Fermented and live-culture foods are beloved for their bold and layered flavors as well as their benefits for gut health and boosting immunity, but until now, there hasn't been a book that is both authoritative and easy to use. The Farmhouse Culture Guide to Fermenting provides you with the history, health information, and safest methods for preserving, along with 115 recipes for krauts, pickles, kimchi, fermented vegetables, hot sauces, preserved fruits and jams, yogurt, kombucha, and even hard ciders and mead. With trusted authors Kathryn Lukas, founder of mega brand Farmhouse Culture and master fermenter and best-selling author Shane Peterson, and their thoroughly tested recipes, this is the fermentation book that every home fermenter needs--whether you are about to make your first batch of pickles or have been preserving foods for decades.
The Esther C. Mack Industrial School of Salem, Massachusetts
compiled this book in 1910. Included are selections from 'The
Compleat Cook' (1683); 'The Frugal Housewife' (1730); 'Our
Grandmother's Cook Book' (1800); and 'Our Own Cook Books' (1900).
Literary quotations from Shakespeare, Byron, Cervantes, and more
are scattered among the recipes for baked goodies, meat dishes, and
beverages.
The hungrily awaited sixth volume in the Cornbread Nation series
tells the story of the American South--circa now--through the prism
of its food and the people who grow, make, serve, and eat it. The
modern South serves up a groaning board of international cuisines
virtually unknown to previous generations of Southerners, notes
Brett Anderson in his introduction. Southern food, like the
increasingly globalized South, shows an open and cosmopolitan
attitude toward ethnic diversity. But fully appreciating Southern
food still requires fluency with the region's history, warts and
all. The essays, memoirs, poetry, and profiles in this book are
informed by that fluency, revealing topics and people traditional
as well as avant garde, down home as well as urbane.
The book is organized into six chapters: "Menu Items" shares
ruminations on iconic dishes; "Messing with Mother Nature" looks at
the relationship between food and the natural environment;
"Southern Characters" profiles an eclectic mix of food notables;
"Southern Drinkways" distills libations, hard and soft; "Identity
in Motion" examines change in the Southern food world; and "The
Global South" leaves readers with some final thoughts on the
cross-cultural influences wafting from the Southern kitchen.
Gathered here are enough prominent food writers to muster the
liveliest of dinner parties: Molly O'Neill, Calvin Trillin, Michael
Pollan, Kim Severson, Martha Foose, Jessica Harris, Bill Addison,
Matt and Ted Lee, and Lolis Eric Elie, among others. Two classic
pieces--Frederick Douglass's account of the sustenance of slaves
and Edward Behr's 1995 profile of Cajun cook Eula Mae Dore--are
included. A photo essay on the Collins Oyster Company family of
Louisiana rounds out "Cornbread Nation 6."
Published in association with the Southern Foodways Alliance at the
Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of
Mississippi. A Friends Fund Publication.

Whether you know it or not, you become a chemist any time you step
into a kitchen. As you cook, you oversee intricate chemical
transformations that would test even the most hardened of
professional chemists. Focussing on how and why we cook different
dishes the way we do, this book introduces basic chemistry through
everyday foods and meal preparations. Through its unique
meal-by-meal organisation, the book playfully explores the
chemistry that turns our food into meals. Topics covered range from
roasting coffee beans to scrambling eggs and gluten development in
breads. The book features many experiments that you can try in your
own kitchen, such as exploring the melting properties of cheese,
retaining flavour when cooking and pairing wines with foods.
Through molecular chemistry, biology, neuroscience, physics and
agriculture, the author discusses various aspects of cooking and
food preparation. This is a fascinating read for anyone interested
in the science behind cooking.
The pub is a prominent social institution integral to British
identity. From Taverns of Gastropubs: Food, Drink, and Sociality in
England charts the historical development of the English public
house from the Restoration period to the twenty-first century,
culminating in the contemporary gastropub. It explores issues of
class, gender, and national identification to understand the social
identity of patrons and how publicans conceive of their
establishments' organizational identity. In the context of
large-scale pub closures since the 1990s the gastropub is viewed as
both a reaction to the traditional drinking pub and as a promising
alternative. From Taverns to Gastropubs uses historical diaries,
industry reports, and a wealth of in-depth interviews in order to
understand the rise of the gastropub and how food, drink, and
sociality has changed through time.

This is an index of the proceedings of a symposium which has been
held annually since 1981 and is a gathering of scholars and
professionals who contribute their specialist knowledge of various
aspects of food and the way it is eaten. Each year a volume of the
essays and lectures delivered to the symposium is published,
normally devoted to a single topic, such as "Food in Motion",
"Taste", "Disappearing Foods" and "Public Eating".
Everything you need to know to assess, understand, and improve a
hangover is here: dozens of comforting recipes, very clever graphic
tests for analyzing your state of mind, and quizzes for tracking
your progress.
A good hangover brings its victim to a new state of mind--and one
that, when looked at objectively, can be quite fascinating to its
host: It can create an increased awareness of the body, a
willingness to eat something usually off limits, and a fascination
with the mind's strange acrobatics. With P. G. Wodehouse's six
hangovers--The Broken Compass, The Sewing Machine, The Comet, The
Atomic, The Cement Mixer, and The Gremlin Boogie--as a starting
point, recipes are tailored to each specific malady, allowing the
reader to find a recipe (or just a menu item) that precisely suits
his state of mind . . . and body. Interspersed with the recipes are
mind games, witticisms and graphic jokes, insights into hangover
science, quizzes to see if you are still drunk or now just merely
hungover, and more.
