Andrew and Phyllis Corella were born in New York City in East
Harlem and raised at a time when food was kept cold in an icebox.
Their parents and grandparents shopped daily for items such as
fresh fruits, vegetables and meats. The authors have attempted to
present a variety of foods. They offer new twists on old family
recipes. There are dishes that you may prepare once a year and
dishes that will be part of your weekly menu. All of the dishes are
easy to prepare.
'What The Heck is Filipino Food? A Beginner's Guide to Filipino
Cooking, ' is the first cookbook in Australia solely based on
Filipino food and has since won Best Asian Cuisine Book (Australia)
at the 18th Gourmand World Cookbook Awards. The Author, Adrian
Briones, is a prolific Melbourne-based food blogger
(foodrehab.com.au) by moonlight and digital advertising wiz kid by
day. Two years ago he travelled back to his birthplace, the
Philippines, eating and photographing his way through hawker stalls
and restaurants from metro Manila to the white sandy beaches of
Boracay. All the way, gathering invaluable tales of food traditions
and folklore from passionate locals. The book, which is in two
parts, Merienda (snacks/light meals) and larger main dishes,
replicating the Filipino style of eating, is based on his mother's
recipes. Briones over a two year period lovingly cooked, tested and
photographed all the dishes in addition to creating new recipes of
his own. He even experienced a near kitchen fire or two during the
process - all in the name of research with the intention of telling
the unique story of Filipino food culture to Australians. Born in
the 'Culinary Capital' of the Philippines, San Fernando, Pampanga,
Briones describes Filipino food as Asian Soul Food. "Filipino food
holds a unique place in the context of Asian cuisine," Briones
says. My book provides an easy guide to traditional Filipino
cooking and culture. There are also a few twists on the classics
from 'Pulled Pork Adobo Pie' to 'Frenchy Filipino Toast with Maple
Butter' - taking traditional recipes into the 21st century."
Briones' fun, humorous and passionate personality is represented
strongly throughout the book. The design is inspired by his love of
comics, complete with flashy quote boxes, superhero fonts and
cartoon characters. Along with easy-to-follow and mouth-watering
recipes, the pages are filled with humorous childhood stories,
giving you a fantastic sense of what it means to grow up Filipino.

The New Mediterranean Diet Cookbook is your guidebook to the
ultimate superdiet, an evidence-based keto diet that emphasizes a
diversity of fish, healthy fats, and a rainbow of colorful
vegetables-with 100 delicious recipes for everything from snacks to
dinner. The Mediterranean diet has long been touted as one of the
world's healthiest diets, renowned for its protective effects
against heart disease, cancer, and other chronic illnesses.
However, its heavy inclusion of grains and carbohydrates can
contribute to obesity and is a drawback for many. Also shown to
have many health benefits, the ketogenic diet stimulates the
fat-burning and longevity-promoting state of ketosis by limiting
carbs and emphasizing high-fat foods. While the keto diet is about
the proportion of macronutrients (fats, protein, carbohydrates) in
the food you eat, the Mediterranean diet is about specific food
types: seafood, olive oil, colorful vegetables, and other
anti-inflammatory foods. This book is about living and eating at
the intersection of these complementary diets so you can reap the
benefits of both. While both diets advocate significant amounts of
healthy fats and protein, the new Mediterranean approach to keto
significantly shifts the fat profile of the diet to emphasize the
monounsaturated and omega-3 fats that health experts agree promote
living a long disease-free life. It also includes colorful
vegetables, providing a diversity of nutrients and flavor. The
result is an enhanced Mediterranean diet that stokes metabolism,
supports the gut and microbiome, and is anti-inflammatory,
anti-aging, and nutrient-dense. Improve your overall health while
enjoying delectable dishes including: Superfood Shakshuka Blender
Cinnamon Pancakes with Cacao Cream Topping Green Goddess Salad
Pancetta Wrapped Sea Bass Sheet Pan Crispy Salmon Piccata Fierce
Meatball Zoodle Bolognese Nordic Stone Age Bread Chocolate Hazelnut
"Powerhouse" Truffles With The New Mediterranean Diet Cookbook,
you'll learn how to balance your macronutrients, what foods are
considered the new Mediterranean superfoods, and how to make tasty
dishes to keep you satisfied all day.
Toya Boudy's father grew up in the Magnolia projects of New
Orleans; her mother shared a tight space with five siblings uptown.
They worked hard, rotated shifts and found time to make meals from
scratch for the family. In Cooking for the Culture, Boudy shares
these recipes, many of which are deeply rooted in the proud Black
traditions that shaped her hometown. Driving the cookbook are her
personal stories: from struggling in school to having a baby at
sixteen, from her growing confidence in the kitchen to her
appearances on Food Network. The cookbook opens with Sweet Cream
Farina, prepared at the crack of dawn for girls in freshly ironed
clothes-being neat and pressed was important. Boudy recounts making
cookies from her commodity box peanut butter; explains the know-how
behind Smothered Chicken, Jambalaya and Red Gravy; and shares her
original television competition recipes. The result is a deeply
personal and unique cookbook.
A follow-up to the successful 'The ScandiKitchen' (published
September 2015), this new book from Bronte Aurell features over 60
recipes for cakes, bakes and treats from all over Scandinavia. From
indulgent cream confections to homely and comforting fruit cakes
and traditional breads, sweet buns and pastries. FIKA is a Swedish
word meaning to meet up for a cup of coffee or tea over something
delicious. It is also the word for the delicious treats themselves.
Swedes traditionally stop twice a day for fika: taking a
much-needed break from the daily grind. People fika with family,
colleagues, friends, children and even go on fika dates. HYGGE
(pronounced hue-guh) is a word that originated in Norway but is now
mainly used in Denmark. It means 'a sublime state of cosiness you
feel when you are with loved ones and nothing else matters'. Hygge
can be enhanced by the addition of a log fire, a good film, a cup
of something warm and a sweet treat...hence the ideal combination
of the two terms. Chapters are divided into Biscuits and Cookies,
Tray and No bakes, Everyday Fika, Little Fancy Cakes, Celebration
Cakes and Bread and Batters. This beautifully illustrated,
authentic guide is a celebration of Scandinavian baking in all its
glory. It is evocative of cosy days shared with friends, slowing
down and taking the time to enjoy simple, homemade, wholesome
pleasures - encouraging a lifestyle to aspire to. With features on
special Scandi winter celebrations, their baking traditions and how
to bring fika and hygge into your life.
