Download or read book America S Favorite Recipes the Melting Pot Cuisine written by Uma Aggarwal and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America is called a melting pot of all cultures. As the immigration of different cultures continue to flood this land of opportunity, a revolution is taking place in the fusion of their cultures and cuisines. This transformation has been very prominent in the last 50 years and it is clearly visible in the emerging American cuisine. Practically, this cuisine has fused to become a spectacular global cuisine. In my book, I am not only giving the recipes that we love so dearly but also tried to emphasize the history and origin of these recipes and describe the use of healthful ingredients and spices to prolong your life. We have to watch what we eat. I am trying to bring this point to the attention of the reader that according to ancient Indian treatises and modern scientific research, it is established that the use of spices is not only for taste but it is for their hidden meaning. They have anti-carcinogenic properties and their use is very important to maintain a good healthy lifestyle. Americans are heavily ridden with obesity, heart diseases, diabetes, breast cancer and many other diseases. Being an American East Indian pioneer with my east Indian wisdom of Ayurvedas, my idea is to make these exotic recipes as healthy as possible by using these spices. I have also tried to capture and write the history and origin of these recipes. My basic point of view is that to make the food delicious, use fresh ingredients, herbs and spices and do not try to over load them with various cheeses, creams, sugars and lards to make them delicious. You are what you eat. Most of these foreign recipes have historical dimensions and origin. They have now shaped themselves gradually to suit the American pallet and have become an integral part of American cuisine. We can make them equally delicious by wisely using healthful ingredients. In order to make these books interesting and enjoyable, they are written with easy step by step instructions. I am hopeful that these books, Americas Favorite Recipes Part I, Part II and Part III will soon become your favorite coffee table books as well as your recipe books.

Download or read book Buttermilk Graffiti written by Edward Lee and published by Artisan Books. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist, 2018 Goodreads Choice Awards “Thoughtful, well researched, and truly moving. Shines a light on what it means to cook and eat American food, in all its infinitely nuanced and ever-evolving glory.” —Anthony Bourdain American food is the story of mash-ups. Immigrants arrive, cultures collide, and out of the push-pull come exciting new dishes and flavors. But for Edward Lee, who, like Anthony Bourdain or Gabrielle Hamilton, is as much a writer as he is a chef, that first surprising bite is just the beginning. What about the people behind the food? What about the traditions, the innovations, the memories? A natural-born storyteller, Lee decided to hit the road and spent two years uncovering fascinating narratives from every corner of the country. There’s a Cambodian couple in Lowell, Massachusetts, and their efforts to re-create the flavors of their lost country. A Uyghur café in New York’s Brighton Beach serves a noodle soup that seems so very familiar and yet so very exotic—one unexpected ingredient opens a window onto an entirely unique culture. A beignet from Café du Monde in New Orleans, as potent as Proust’s madeleine, inspires a narrative that tunnels through time, back to the first Creole cooks, then forward to a Korean rice-flour hoedduck and a beignet dusted with matcha. Sixteen adventures, sixteen vibrant new chapters in the great evolving story of American cuisine. And forty recipes, created by Lee, that bring these new dishes into our own kitchens.

Download or read book Eight Flavors written by Sarah Lohman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique culinary history of America offers a fascinating look at our past and uses long-forgotten recipes to explain how eight flavors changed how we eat. The United States boasts a culturally and ethnically diverse population which makes for a continually changing culinary landscape. But a young historical gastronomist named Sarah Lohman discovered that American food is united by eight flavors: black pepper, vanilla, curry powder, chili powder, soy sauce, garlic, MSG, and Sriracha. In Eight Flavors, Lohman sets out to explore how these influential ingredients made their way to the American table. She begins in the archives, searching through economic, scientific, political, religious, and culinary records. She pores over cookbooks and manuscripts, dating back to the eighteenth century, through modern standards like How to Cook Everything by Mark Bittman. Lohman discovers when each of these eight flavors first appear in American kitchens—then she asks why. Eight Flavors introduces the explorers, merchants, botanists, farmers, writers, and chefs whose choices came to define the American palate. Lohman takes you on a journey through the past to tell us something about our present, and our future. We meet John Crowninshield a New England merchant who traveled to Sumatra in the 1790s in search of black pepper. And Edmond Albius, a twelve-year-old slave who lived on an island off the coast of Madagascar, who discovered the technique still used to pollinate vanilla orchids today. Weaving together original research, historical recipes, gorgeous illustrations and Lohman’s own adventures both in the kitchen and in the field, Eight Flavors is a delicious treat—ready to be devoured.
