This is the fourth of six parts of a facsimile reprint of a
compendium of cookery, gardening, animal husbandry and general
household medicine which was published in two volumes in about
1760, having first been offered to the public in 41 weekly parts in
1756. The author claimed "upwards of Thirty Years Experience" as
housekeeper or cook, possibly in the service of a Lady Hewit, whose
manuscript receipt book - cookery and medicinal - is copied into
the published work. The work is arranged as a calendar discussing
marketing, cooking, preserving, brewing, medicines for men and
animals, and tending the orchard, the herb and vegetable garden and
the pleasure garden, month by month. Among its features are
descriptions of foods bought - spices, sugar, anchovies, olives,
soy sauce - as well as foods grown or cooked. Other hints about
marketing - buying fish, for instance - are more detailed than in
many other manuals of the period, and there are lists of specific
varieties of fruits as they are ready for the table.
Third Culture cooking is American cooking: Delicious everyday multicultural recipes, borrowing from our parents and their parents’ homes, melding the old with the new and the familiar with the unfamiliar to create bold flavors and new classics for the next generation of cooks.
The food that author Zaynab Issa cooks—inspired by her East African and South Asian roots, the American suburban delights she grew up eating, and her international travels—is packed with unique and flavorful riffs. Her affectionate homages to the chain restaurants we love are reflected here: fluffy cinnamon rolls that rival Cinnabon’s, Baskin Robbins–inspired almond fudge squares, and an artichoke dip that recalls TGI Fridays’ delights that will make you want to stay in. To complete the collection, Zaynab looked to her primary inspiration, the women who’ve fed her, and meticulously recorded her favorite traditional dishes from each of them.
Beyond the recipes, Zaynab shares her tips on establishing yourself as a confident cook—one who prepares food consciously, hosts with pride, and is never without a well-stocked pantry.
The book includes sections like "Set Yourself Up for Success," which outlines Zaynab’s essential kitchen tools and ingredients, "On Food & Feelings" to guide the reader through cooking based on their mood, and "Host with the Most" featuring suggested menus and Zaynab’s method for executing any organized dinner. Finally, look to "Eating with Your Eyes" for her philosophy on serving beautiful food. For extravagant entertaining as well as weeknight ease, Third Culture Cooking is a love letter to American home-cooking and the many influences that make it so.
