A clever and whimsical illustrated history of the most iconic
all-American foods from Ambrosia to Zucchini Bread American food is
not quite a cuisine, but rather a ragtag inventory of dishes with
native, national, and international influences. This captivating
and surprising tour of America's culinary canon celebrates the
variety, lore, and charm of the food we love to eat. Every entry,
from A to Z, delves into the history of a national classic or
regional treat, accompanied by practical tips and recipes for you
to prepare. These distinctly American dishes, from Blueberry
Pancakes and Fortune Cookies to Pepperoni Pizza and Shrimp and
Grits, have rich and complex back stories that reach well beyond
the borders of the United States. American Food: A Not-So- Serious
History is both topical and entertaining in its exploration of US
food culture, eating local and well, and bringing a sense of whimsy
and not too much fuss to the table.
