Shipped in a sturdy protective box.A conversation starter on your shelf or coffee table.More than just a collection of recipes, this book is meant to inform as much as instruct.Some extracts about the food...."It is commonly accepted that Mexican cuisine is the result of the fusion of three separate cuisines: Indigenous, Spanish, and French. The first Mexican cookbook "El Cocinero Mexicano" (The Mexican Chef) was written in 1831, just a few years after the end of the Spanish rule was compiled by an anonymous author and relied heavily on French culinary methods and principals"."Contrary to public belief, Cinco de Mayo is not Mexican Independence Day but the commemoration of May 5, 1862, which was the day that a smaller and less well-equipped Mexican army led by General Zaragoza forced France to surrender the city of Puebla, thus ending the first French occupation".A little preview about the Chiles section...."So, is it chili, chilli or chile? The common Spanish spelling in M矇xico is chile and so for me, only chile is used in this book. NOTE: Chile in M矇xico is a sauce or a pepper, it is not the ground beef mixture with canned tomatoes and kidney beans that has assumed the name north of the border and popular on hot dogs". There are recipes for chiles in its own section and these sauces are holy ground in Mexican cuisine, they are revered and indispensable and there are sometimes heated discussions about whose grandmother (abuela) makes the best mole, chile verde, or chile rojo. Chile peppers trick our brain into thinking we are being burned. A chemical called capsaicum is found in virtually all capsicum peppers and it triggers the release of a protein called TRPV1 whose job it is to sense heat, whether from a hot pan or a hot chile. This protein tells the brain something is hot, and the brain sends a jolt of pain to the area, in this case your mouth".

Pomegranates and Artichokes
From photographer and food writer Saghar Setareh comes a cookbook full of rich new recipes that show how ingredients and recipes-unconstrained by borders-are shared and transformed through the immigrant experience. When Iranian writer and food photographer Saghar Setareh moved to Italy at the age of 22, she was enchanted by the rich food culture of her adopted country, and this inspired a curiosity in the cuisine of her homeland and the surrounding countries of the Levant and Eastern Mediterranean. Pomegranates and Artichokes is the story of Saghar's own culinary journey from Iran to Italy, in which she describes the many parallels that link Middle Eastern and Mediterranean food cultures, and shows how ingredients and recipes-unconstrained by borders-are shared and transformed through the immigrant experience. Divided into three sections representing stops on Saghar's culinary "road trip"--Iran, In Between, and Italy-this book features more than 80 recipes celebrating the foods of these regions. Among the highlights are a simple Iranian breakfast platter, a celebratory Persian feast, Sicilian-style stuffed artichokes, guinea hen braised with pomegranate, sweet-sour meatballs from Aleppo, a Roman ricotta and wild cherry pie, and a velvety Middle Eastern milk pudding. Illustrated with Saghar's own beautiful photography and peppered with personal insights and experiences, Pomegranates and Artichokes tells the story of two food cultures, and the delicious space in between.

It is recognized as beautifully written. Brillat-Savarin's unique storytelling style explores the sensual art of fine dining, which is an expression of ourselves. The book looks at the relationship between food and "the pleasures of the table"; all the pleasures associated with eating together and concludes that consuming food transcends mere sustenance-it is a form of transcendental experience available to all classes of society. Brillat-Savarin is remarkably far-ranging in making connections. His musings touch on all the senses, human nature and society, being a guest and a host, the essential constituents of food from the animal and vegetable kingdoms, being a gourmand, digestion, rest, sleep, dreams, fasting and death. Of course, there are some remarkable recipes. Perhaps most startling for the early 17th century are the two chapters on obesity-its "inconveniences," causes, and prevention. He explicitly observed that sugars and carbohydrates reduce physical performance and lead to obesity. The Physiology of Taste was hugely successful when first published in 1825 and has been in print continuously since then. It has been translated into English, German, Russian, Italian, Spanish and Swedish. The Physiology of Taste is "still the most civilized cookbook ever written" (The New Yorker). It is a unique book on all aspects of eating: wide-ranging, informative, inspiring, beautifully written, and entertaining. Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin (1755-1826) was a French lawyer, judge and politician. He fled France for two years and toured America, giving French and violin lessons and gathering friends and anecdotes. His was an inquiring mind with both a scientific and a philosophical bent. As a bachelor, he invested much of his time, wealth, and passion into dining, entertaining, and dwelling on these matters. The result is this masterpiece. A French cheese and a French cake bear his name.

The Italian Daughter’s Cookbook
The Italian Daughter's Cookbook is an ode to authentic Calabrese cuisine. In this captivating journey through the vibrant and often undiscovered southern regions of Italy, Cathy Coluccio Fazzolari--daughter of the pioneer purveyor of high end and top quality Italian foods in New York City D. Coluccio & Sons--welcomes readers into her family's kitchen. Through heartfelt familial memories, authentic Calabrese recipes (both with the traditional chili peppers and without), and tantalizing images by Feast of the Seven Fishes author Daniel Paterna, the eclectic essence of Calabrese food comes alive. Domenico Coluccio emigrated from Reggio Calabria in Southern Italy to Brooklyn, New York, in 1958, seeking a better life and the promise of the "American Dream." When the rest of his family joined him in the U.S. in 1964, Domenico, and his two sons, established D. Coluccio & Sons, a market offering traditional Italian food and staples previously unavailable in the city. Initially situated on the corner of 59th Street and 13th Avenue, the business flourished, prompting expansion to accommodate the growing Italian-American community. Now, 60 years later, the legacy continues through Domenico's three children: Luigi, Rocco, and Cathy. Cathy grew up speaking the Calabrese dialect, immersed in the Italian-American community both inside her house and at her father's store. Cathy fondly remembers assisting her mother in preparing nightly multicourse homemade dinners. Cathy's culinary skills blossomed as she helped her mother maintain a pantry stocked with homemade delights. By the time Cathy was an adult, she had mastered not only the recipes themselves, but had also come to cherish the culture and history they embody. Thus, The Italian Daughter's Cookbook was born. The recipes in Cathy's book are divided into distinct sections, covering every course of food imaginable: Antipasto, Soups, Legumes, Two-Course Sauces, Quick Dishes and Sauces, Fresh and Baked Pastas, Rice and Polenta, Eggs, Fish and Seafood, Meats, Vegetables and Salads, Jarred, Cured, and Pickled Foods, and Bread and Sweets. Each section offers an introduction contextualizing the recipes within Italian culture, followed by up to 20 different recipes accompanied by captivating photos by Daniel Paterna, providing a comprehensive insight into Calabrese culinary traditions. This deeply personal book offers a unique glimpse into the Italian-American experience, showcasing how family, tradition, and memory intertwine through the art of cooking. The Italian Daughter's Cookbook will infuse readers' homes and hearts with the warmth of authentic Calabrese cuisine and culture in homes around the world.

Silk Road Cooking
This book is at once an exploration, a celebration, and a little-known tale of unity. It presents 150 delicious vegetarian dishes that together trace a fascinating story of culinary linkage. As renowned cookbook writer and teacher Najmieh Batmanglij explains, all have their origins along the ancient network of trade routes known as the Silk Road, stretching from China in the east to the Mediterranean in the west. On this highway moved not just trade goods but also ideas, customs, tastes and such basics of life as cooking ingredients. The result was the connecting and enrichment of dozens of cuisines. In Silk Road Cooking: A Vegetarian Journey, Najmieh Batmanglij recounts that process and brings it into the modern kitchen in the form of recipes that are venturesome and yet within reach of any cook. They are intended for vegetarian, partial-vegetarian and non-vegetarian alike - anyone who is looking for balanced, unusual and exceptionally tasty dishes.The book offers a wealth of information derived from the author's extensive research and her travels along the Silk Road during the past 30 years. She complements the recipes with stories, pictures, histories of ingredients, and words of wisdom from her favorite poets and writers of the region. The scope of her culinary journey of discovery is vast - from Xian in China, to Samarkand in present-day Uzbekistan, to Isfahan in Iran, to Istanbul in Turkey, and to the westernmost terminus of the ancient trade routes in Italy. Her recipes - all of them personal favorites - include such exotic yet simple fare as Sichuan Crispy Cucumber Pickles; Afghan Boulani, a savory pastry stuffed with garlic chives; Persian Pomegranate and Walnut Salad; Kermani Pistachio and Saffron Polow with Rose Petals; Chinese Hot and Sour Tofu Noodle Soup; Turkish Almond and Rice Flour Pudding; Uzbek Candied Quince with Walnuts; and Sicilian Sour Cherry Crostata. Fortunately, all the ingredients for these recipes can be obtained at local supermarkets and farmers' markets. In recent years America has become a kind of modern Silk Road, where wonderful ingredients from all over the world are available to everyone.
