Coming Home: With over 150 Easy to Make Recipes from Return of the Chef

Author: John Burton Rac

I'd had my first vague thoughts about opening a restaurant in England towards the end of my year's stay in France, while working on French Leave. Living in that unspoilt area of France, enjoying no-fuss dishes made from seasonal local ingredients, had taught me that food didn't have to be fancy to be good. When we left France I wondered if it would be possible to capture what I'd learned and somehow bring it back to England.

Arriving back in the UK on the ferry to Plymouth, I was struck by the natural beauty of the countryside in the general area. Here was a region rich in natural produce: the iron-rich soil and lush pastureland perfect for yielding the best meat and dairy produce, the beautiful orchards of apples and pears, the river estuaries with their wonderful range of fresh and seawater fish and shellfish. There were even vineyards, for heaven's sake! I decided that if I was going to open a restaurant in England, Devon was the county to do it in.

One look at the spectacular setting of The Carved Angel on the River Dart, and I was completely bowled over. Formerly owned by the legendary Joyce Molyneux, to my mind one of the best British chefs ever, I knew that buying this lovely waterfront restaurant was the right thing to do. I feel more privileged than I can say to have been able to buy it and to continue its fine traditions of excellence. Opening the restaurant as The New Angel has been the perfect homecoming.

I'd like to think that this book, and the 8-part primetime television series which accompanies it, is a tribute to the best that England, as a whole, has to offer. Some of the dishes are from The New Angel repertoire,others are personal or family favourites. All of them are easy to make, and I hope there's something here for everyone and that you get as much pleasure from the recipes as I have.

Good Fat or The Best Is Yet To Be

Good Fat

Author: Fran McCollough

Good News

The good fats—butter, chocolate, coconut, olive oil, avocado, fish, and shellfish, among many other favorites—are not only delicious, they're good for your brain, heart, immune system, hormones, skin, memory, and emotional well-being, and can also help you lose weight.

It's a fact: Not all fats are bad. Good fats slow the effects of aging, improve mood and memory, boost the immune system, and protect against stroke and cancer. And the most surprising news of all: The right fats are great tools for weight loss, making you feel full longer and jump-starting your metabolism.

In Good Fat, bestselling low-carb guru Fran McCullough debunks all the fat myths, demystifies cutting-edge science, and—fork in hand—reveals the simple secrets to eating well and losing weight. Here she teaches you how to:

• identify the good fats—and enjoy their good taste
• avoid trans fats and other bad fats that damage health and pile on the pounds
• combine low-carb foods with beneficial fats, proteins, and fresh ingredients for maximum energy
• lose weight by eating more of the foods you crave
• prepare more than 100 simple, delicious recipes to put the good fat back on your table

...and much more. Part of the groundswell that prompted the Food and Drug Administration to require mandatory listing of trans fats content on food labels by 2006, Good Fat is an inspirational resource for the millions of Americans who have perceived the benefits of a low-carb lifestyle and are looking to live a healthier, happier life.

Whats the Beef or Chesapeakes Bounty II

What's the Beef?: The Contested Governance of European Food Safety

Author: Christopher Ansell

A series of food-related crises--most notably mad cow disease in Britain, farmer protests in France against American hormone-treated beef, and the European Union's banning of genetically modified food--has turned the regulation of food safety in Europe into a crucible for issues of institutional trust, legitimacy, and effectiveness. What's the Beef? examines European food safety regulation at the national, European, and international levels as a case of "contested governance"--a syndrome of policymaking and political dispute in which not only policy outcomes but aso the fundamental legitimacy of existing institutional arrangements are challenged.

The discussions of European food safety regulation in What's the Beef? open into consideration of broader issues, including the growing importance of multilevel regulation (and the possibility of disagreements among different levels of authority), the future of European integration, discontent over trade globalization, the politicization of risk assessment and regulatory science, the regulation of biotechnology, the shifting balance between public and private regulation, agricultural protectionism, and the "transatlantic divide." After addressing the historical, social, and economic context of European food safety regulation, the book examines national efforts at food safety reform in France, Britain, and Germany and such regional efforts as the creation of the European Food Authority. The book also looks at the international dimensions of European food safety regulation, discussing the conflicts between EU safety rules and World Trade Organization rulings that occur because EU rules are more riskaverse ("precautionary") than those of its trading partners, including the United States.

Table of Contents:

1	The contested governance of European food safety regulation	3
2	Taste, traditions, and transactions : the public and private regulation of food	35
3	Contentions over food safety : the significance of consumer trust	61
4	Food safety and the structure of the European food industry	81
5	Protesting food : NGOs and political mobilization in Europe	97
6	Is it just about trust? : the partial reform of French food safety regulation	125
7	From precautionary bans to DIY poison tasting : reform of the UK food safety regulation regime	153
8	Governance reform of German food safety regulation : cosmetic or real?	181
9	Regulating food safety risks in the European Union : a comparative perspective	213
10	Food safety and the single European market	237
11	The creation of the European food safety authority	259
12	Protection or protectionism? EU food safety and the WTO	281

Many of the recipes will be familiar to children and their families, though some, such as Apple Veal Cutlets, Tomato Pesto Pork and Steak with Mushroom-Coffee Sauce may require parents to employ their salesmanship skills.

Books and My Food or Malt Whisky File

Books and My Food: Literary Quotations and Original Recipes for Every Day in the Year

Author: Elisabeth Luther Cary

Beginning on January 1 with a recipe for traditional English wedding cake referenced to Jane Austen's Emma and continuing through December with a recipe for Christmas pudding attributed to a quote from Charles Dickens, Books and My Food provides readers the occasion to experience the gastronomic delights that inspired novelists, poets, and playwrights. Drawn almost entirely from British sources, the literary catalysts for these recipes include citations from Charlotte Bronte, William Shakespeare, William Makepeace Thackeray, Ben Jonson, George Eliot, Alfred Tennyson, and others. Recipes range across familiar British fare from mutton chops, leg of lamb, and meat pies to tea cakes, custards, puddings, porridge, and crumpets. Equally intriguing are the instructions for more obscure sustenance such as rum omelets, sago-cream pudding. Shrovetide pancakes, furmety, syllabub, dulcet creams, and an adaptation for curds and whey. Finally, for the literary buff whose tastes run bravely to the authentic dinners of old England, there are recipes for tongue and spinach, frog leg patties, fried eels, and stewed snipe.

Secrets of a New Orleans Chef or New Wok

Secrets of a New Orleans Chef: Recipes from Tom Cowman's Cookbook

Author: Gene Bourg

Culinary delights from the kitchen of a famed Crescent City chef

These are among Tom Cowman's signature dishes: Trout Mousse, Roast Long Island Duck, Liver à l'Orange, Lamb Curry, Barbados Rum Trifle, and, la pièce de résistance, Cowman's Chocolate Cake. The recipes for these and many other delectables are included in this cookbook that divulges a master chef's secrets. Featured here are some two hundred of Tom Cowman's great dishes. Alongside are anecdotes, narratives, and pictures that enhance them. He collected them himself, intending that one day they would showcase his recipes, but his death in July 1994 cut short his intentions, and his nephew has finished the compilation. In 1961 Cowman left a ten-year career in advertising in New York City to open his first restaurant. It was called 234 and was located on East 58th Street. Next, he moved to Gordon's Restaurant in Amagansett on Long Island. But his great reputation was made when he established Tom Cowman's Restaurant in the Maidstone Arms, a resort hotel in East Hampton. The food there achieved three stars (out of a possible four) from Craig Claiborne, the food critic of the New York Times. In the 1970s Cowman moved to the kitchen of Restaurant Jonathan on the edge of the French Quarter in New Orleans. Next, at his pinnacle, he was chef at Upperline in the uptown district. He became so celebrated in New Orleans that it is a natural pleasure for his many friends to share their favorite stories about him and his famous kitchen. For him, cooking was a form of theatre. "Cooking," he said, "brings the kind of instant gratification you don't get out of anything but acting." Tom Cowman had a passion forgood food. Every savory recipe in this book attests to his gustatory passion. It not only manifests this particular chef's brio but also serves as an enticement that the culinary delights be shared and passed along. When most good cooks die, so too does their special cuisine. Not Tom Cowman's! Every recipe here commemorates the great chef that created it, and every succulent morsel, when eaten, will be relished in his name.

A traves de ellas, Donato nos ensena a cocinar con lo que nos gusta y con lo que se consigue en el mercado. Sumandole a todo, claro esta, una buena dosis de imaginacion, pasion y locura. Este libro se convierte, asi, en un reencuentro delicioso con los sabores y los perfumes de la mas destacada de las cocinas mediterraneas.

A Taste of Heave and Earth or Herbalist in the Kitchen

A Taste of Heave and Earth

Author: Bettina Vitell

For Bettina Vitell the simple art of cooking holds the seeds to a deeper, more life-enriching experience. It is a way to become more aware of ourselves and the world around us, to think clearly and to delight in even the most basic daily activities of our lives.

The dishes in A Taste of Heaven and Earth reflect this Zen philosophy. Bettina Vitell's uncomplicated recipes produce sophisticated, creative meals without ever losing site of her goal of preparing low-dairy vegetarian food. Tastes from both East and West merge with delicious results: here kale and tofu adorn pizza, and udon noodles are dressed with pesto. There are recipes for soup stock and tomato sauce, as well as cashew ginger sauce and apricot lime chutney. The homey breakfast and dessert sections provide recipes for muffins and crisps; and sections on pizza, sushi, curries, and Mexican-inspired foods expand the traditional range of vegetarian cooking.

A Taste of Heaven and Earth explores beyond the reaches of traditional cook-books by offering contemplative essays and ink drawings that heighten the cook's sensory experience in the kitchen. They provide questions and stories that help readers realize the simplicity and beauty inherent in preparing and eating good food.

What People Are Saying

Thomas Moore
"A Taste of Heaven and Earth has the right proportions of heaven and earth. It doesn't gag our throats with philosophy, but rather seasons our cooking and eating with small morsels of reflection. It's a wonderful book to read, taste... and keep forever. It knows that cooking with care is more important than just about anything, and that food is a sacred path to soul."

Jeanne Lemlin
"Bettina Vitell has successfully wedded her lively palate with a purposeful sense of simplicity in the kitchen to create delicious, healthful, and unpretentious recipes. That they are vegetarian is incidental; this food will excite any lover who values fresh imaginative cooking."

Herbalist in the Kitchen

Author: Gary Allen

The foodie's ultimate herbal encyclopedia



Created as the ideal reference for anyone with a serious interest in cooking with herbs, spices, or related plant materials, The Herbalist in the Kitchen is truly encyclopedic in scope. It provides complete information about the uses, botany, toxicity, and flavor chemistry of herbs, as well as a listing for nearly every name that an ingredient is known by around the world.



Even including herbs and spices not yet seen in the United States (but likely to be featured in recipes for adventurous cooks soon), The Herbalist in the Kitchen is organized into one hundred and four sections, each consisting of a single botanical family. The book provides all available information about the chemical compounds responsible for a plant's characteristic taste and scent, which allows cooks to consider new subtleties and potential alternatives. For instance, the primary flavoring ingredient of cloves is eugenol; when a cook knows that bay leaves also contain eugenol, a range of exciting substitutions becomes clear. The Herbalist in the Kitchen also provides guidance about measuring herbs, enabling readers to understand the dated measuring standards from antique cookbooks.

Purba or Allergy Cuisine

Purba: Oriya Cuisine from Eastern India

Author: Laxmi Parida

Not just a recipe book but a comprehensive survey of culinary delights from the eastern Indian state of Orissa, better known for the architectural splendors of its ancient temples in Konarak and Puri.

The author speaks of her own experience in the context of the food she describes- meticulously documented by her as she passes through her grandmother's kitchen to her mother's overseen by the family cook. The little anecdotes that accompany some of the recipes provide an unusual glimpse into the middle-class Indian existence the author experienced while growing up in that vast and fascinating country.

Comparing and contrasting the techniques refined over generations, with that from diverse and distant cultures, augmented with an extensive bibliography, the book should appeal to a wide spectrum of readers --from the faltering beginner to the serious cook. An unusual chapter on the family cook's contribution might make the orthodox in you squirm but nevertheless offers a glimpse into the evolution of "restaurant-food" in urban Orissa.

A scientist by training, the author injects her own scientific-humor into the writing that also makes the book an amusing read.

Allergy Cuisine: Step by Step

Author: Sylvia Ross

Allergy Cuisine: No Gluten, No Dairy, No Food Additives, No Yeast, No Sugar, No Aged Foods, No Miscellaneous Food Allergens—Just Good Food!

Allergy Cuisine is all about cooking without the foods that cause and aggravate food allergies, the "Seven Deadly Sins": gluten, dairy, chemical additives, yeast, sugar, aged foods, and miscellaneous food allergens. What's left to eat? That question is answered here utilizing three approaches that help the reader: 1. Flexibility: Many people with food allergies wish to avoid chemical additives in animal products, such as hormones, antibiotics, and insecticides, so recipes here are set up vegetarian but designed with the option to add meats, fish, or fowl if one wishes, or if meals are shared with people who eat animal foods.

2. User Friendliness: The person with food allergies wants to know what to eat for breakfast, for lunch, and for dinner—so that's how the recipes are organized, including a special chapter devoted to holiday menus.

3. Satisfaction: The prevalent attitude seems to be that a book about healthy eating should be devoid of fat, but there's a conflict with that attitude because fats are what make foods satisfying. Chapter Three, "Fats: No Longer a Four-Letter Word," outlines the role that essential fatty acids play in healing food allergies and how to use these beneficial fats.
