Milk Street Backroads Italy
Discover the real techniques, ingredients, and stories behind the Italian dishes you know and love--and the ones you've yet to try--with more than 145 delicious recipes that bring simplicity back to Italian cooking, from the James Beard Award-winning team at Milk Street. Forget everything you thought you knew about Italian food. In Italy, cooks throw away their garlic, they don't stir their polenta, and they never labor over pans of risotto. But they do make enormous meatballs that are tender and light, and they occasionally break all the rules when making pasta. The editors at Milk Street have spent years scouring small eateries, local markets, farms and home kitchens from Lombardy to Calabria and from Sardinia to Sicily in search of fresh takes on classic recipes as well as little-known regional favorites that never crossed the Atlantic. On our travels we found new ways with pasta, from foolproof cacio e pepe in Rome to Puglia's olive oil--crisped fettuccine with chickpeas and a lemony pesto from Amalfi, where the pasta itself is enriched with citrus. Plus some surprising tomato sauces, including spaghetti all'assassina from Bari--spicy, charred, and made in one skillet. We visited a Neapolitan trattoria where five sisters serenade diners with opera and serve an eggplant Parmesan that's rich, but never fried. In Northern Italy, we made meatball-like bread dumplings simmered in chicken broth. And in Sardinia, a hearty herb soup studded with pancetta, beans, and tiny nuggets of pasta. Milk Street Backroads Italy give you a seat at the table with Italian cooks sharing the food they love, handed down from generation to generation.

Moroccan Cookbook
LONGLISTED FOR THE ANDRE SIMON FOOD & DRINK BOOK AWARDS 2025. The culmination of years of research, this evocative volume looks in detail at the history and geography, customs and festivities, as well as all the local ingredients, and presents a mouthwatering selection of classic recipes, beautifully photographed. Hospitality is of utmost importance in Morocco. Offering, sharing and receiving are intertwined and, even in the humblest of homes, a guest will be offered dates to dip in milk, or a simple glass of milk flavoured with rosewater, sometimes with scented petals floating on top. Freshly baked or griddled bread, scented sweetmeats or fruit may also be offered to welcome guests and wherever you go in the country a glass of hot, sweet mint tea is the essence of hospitality, friendship, family gatherings and trade. This is just the beginning. What has yet to come is a feast for the senses. Spicy and scented, fruity and sweet, offering creative combinations of cumin and ginger, honey and cinnamon, saffron and rose chillies and turmeric, nuts, marinated olives and preserved lemons, served in painted, earthenware bowls and tagines, Moroccan food is both exciting and inspiring. It is no wonder that the cuisine has been described as the 'perfumed soul' of the culture. A table laden with a Moroccan feast can tell the fascinating story of the country and its people and the influences from the ancient and medieval cultures that have left their mark on the region. At the root of the culinary culture are the indigenous Amazigh, the Berber communities, with their traditions of tagines and couscous; the nomadic Bedouins from the desert who brought dates, milk and grains; the Moors expelled from Spain who relied heavily on olives and olive oil and brought with them the Andalucian flavours of paprika and herbs; the Sephardic Jews with their preserving techniques employing salt; the Arabs who introduced the sophisticated cuisine from the Middle East along with Islamic culinary restrictions; the slaves from central Africa with their tribal secrets; the Ottoman influence of kebabs and pastry making; and the finesse of the French. Sensually intertwining the ancient and medieval influences within the modern, the cuisine is regarded as the most exquisite and refined of the Maghreb, the North African region comprising Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria. Libya and Mauritania. "While I walked up to the Kasbah du Toubkal, a magnificent mountain retreat in the Atlas Mountains, my young children were transported on the back of a gentle mule. Chatting and giggling, they were blissfully unaware of the draining heat, but I was thankful when we arrived at the walls of the ancient refuge. In the shelter and shade of the pretty courtyard garden, a vision of colour from lush green herbs and scented pink roses, we were greeted warmly with a cool sprinkling of rose water to refresh our hands, faces and necks and the most succulent dates I have ever tasted dipped in a bowl of milk - traditional Berber hospitality. Welcome to Morocco!"

From The King's Table to Street Food
'A wonderfully evocative book on Delhi and its food combining decades of scholarship with personal experiences and memoriesby one of our greatest food writers.'-Vir Sanghvi, journalist and author, Rude Food'Pushpesh Pant weaves a magical mosaic in his inimitable style about his personal, and Delhi's, food journey, spiced with anecdotes and tales. A mustread book.'-Rocky Mohan, food connoisseur, author and custodian of Old Monk rumWho is an 'asli Dilliwala'-a true-blue Delhizen-and what is his cuisine?To answer this question, Pushpesh Pant, food historian and raconteurpar excellence, takes us on a culinary journey from the Mahabharata'sIndraprastha-the first city of Delhi-to the present day, through theSultanate, the Mughal Empire and the British Raj.On this fascinating food trip, we savour the rich qormas and kebabs ofShahjahanabad and the Shepherd's Pie and mutton cutlets of 'angrezon kiDilli', with a light snack in between of papri or undiya, washed down with baelka sherbet in a good Baniya home. But that is not all. As Delhi's populationgrew to include migrants from across the country, so did its culinaryrepertoire. The Dilliwala of today is as likely to enjoy Calcutta-style streetfood-chops, cutlets, puchka and jhaalmuri-in the south Delhi colony of C.R.Park, as he is to relish a berry pulao and dhansak at the Parsi Anjuman. Andwhat better tiffin than idli-dosa-sambar from the South Indian outlets that dotthe city? From a city identified largely with Punjabi and Mughlai food-butterchicken and biryani-Delhi is now a melting pot of cuisines ranging fromKashmiri, Bengali and Bihari, to Andhra, Naga and 'Indian-Chinese'.Pushpesh Pant also tracks the growth of the city's restaurant culture, fromwayside dhabas and McDonalds to high-end restaurants that can compete withthe best in the world-justifying its claim to being a global food capital wherevirtually every cuisine can be found, including Japanese, Thai, Mediterraneanand Korean.Drawing on a wealth of historical records and literary sources, Pushpesh Panthas written a delightful, anecdotal account of the life and food habits of eachperiod of Delhi's history, that is as much a feast to be enjoyed, as the food hedescribes.
