Book excerpt: Buying large, unbutchered pieces of meat from a local farm or butcher shop means knowing where and how your food was raised, and getting meat that is more reasonably priced. It means getting what you want, not just what a grocery store puts out for sale—and tailoring your cuts to what you want to cook, not the other way around. For the average cook ready to take on the challenge, The Meat Hook Meat Book is the perfect guide: equal parts cookbook and butchering handbook, it will open readers up to a whole new world—start by cutting up a chicken, and soon you’ll be breaking down an entire pig, creating your own custom burger blends, and throwing a legendary barbecue (hint: it will include The Man Steak—the be-all and end-all of grilling one-upmanship—and a cooler full of ice-cold cheap beer). This first cookbook from meat maven Tom Mylan, co-owner of The Meat Hook, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, is filled with more than 60 recipes and hundreds of photographs and clever illustrations to make the average cook a butchering enthusiast. With stories that capture the Meat Hook experience, even those who haven’t shopped there will become fans.

  • Publisher : Vintage
  • Release : 1994-09-20
  • ISBN : 0679756450
  • Pages : 289 pages

Download or read book Portnoy s Complaint written by Philip Roth and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1994-09-20 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The groundbreaking novel from the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of American Pastoral that originally propelled its author to literary stardom: told in a continuous monologue from patient to psychoanalyst, this masterpiece draws us into the turbulent mind of one lust-ridden young Jewish bachelor named Alexander Portnoy. "Deliciously funny...absurd and exuberant, wild and uproarious...a brilliantly vivid reading experience." —The New York Times Book Review "Touching as well as hilariously lewd.... Roth is vibrantly talented." —New York Review of Books Portnoy's Complaint n. [after Alexander Portnoy (1933- )] A disorder in which strongly-felt ethical and altruistic impulses are perpetually warring with extreme sexual longings, often of a perverse nature. Spielvogel says: 'Acts of exhibitionism, voyeurism, fetishism, auto-eroticism and oral coitus are plentiful; as a consequence of the patient's "morality," however, neither fantasy nor act issues in genuine sexual gratification, but rather in overriding feelings of shame and the dread of retribution, particularly in the form of castration.' (Spielvogel, O. "The Puzzled Penis," Internationale Zeitschrift für Psychoanalyse, Vol. XXIV, p. 909.) It is believed by Spielvogel that many of the symptoms can be traced to the bonds obtaining in the mother-child relationship.

Book Hazana

  • Author : Paola Gavin
  • Publisher : Hardie Grant Publishing
  • Release : 2017-11-02
  • ISBN : 1787132072
  • Pages : 435 pages

Download or read book Hazana written by Paola Gavin and published by Hardie Grant Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food and cooking are at the heart of Jewish life. During their 2,000 years of exile, Jews migrated across the world taking their culinary heritage and traditions with them. Wherever they settled, they adapted the dishes of their country of residence to fit their own dietary customs and laws, and as a result, Jewish food today embraces a vast variety of cuisines and cooking styles. Acclaimed food writer Paola Gavin takes the reader on a culinary journey through more than twenty countries from Poland to Morocco uncovering a myriad traditional vegetarian dishes that play such an important part in Jewish cooking. When Jews arrived in the Promised Land they became farmers and agriculturists, growing wheat, barley, rye and millet. Their diet was mainly vegetarian – based on bread, pulses, goat’s and sheep’s cheese, olives and nuts, vegetables and herbs, fresh and dried fruit. For the poor, food was made more palatable by sweetening with honey or syrup made from dates, pomegranates or carob beans. These are some of the unique tastes and ingredients that are still associated with modern Jewish cooking today. Through 150 recipes Paola leads us from North Africa to Italy, Lithuania, Turkey and beyond, examining the subtle differences and genesis of the dishes of these regions. With lavish, colourful food photography and a meticulously researched narrative, Hazana is a classic in cookbook writing.

  • Release : 2015-09-20
  • ISBN : 9781517393021
  • Pages : 342 pages

Download or read book The Jewish Vegan written by Shmuly Yanklowitz and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-20 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From brisket and gefilte fish to chicken soup and beyond, the Jewish diet heavily leans on meat and other animal products. And for all the good feelings and nostalgia this food provides, there is a dark component to it. The horrors of industrial meat production-including factories that supply the bulk of kosher meat throughout the world-are well-established: the profitable yet unethical methods of slaughter, the widespread abuse, and the callous treatment of livestock raised solely to die. As members of a tradition that emphasizes compassion for all living beings, the current trend towards more meat consumption endangers the fragile ecology of our planet. But more importantly, it threatens the moral sustainability of our souls. That is where THE JEWISH VEGAN comes in: To be a guide for those who are beginning to think deeply about making a significant change in their diet and lifestyle. Featuring selections from prominent, contemporary Jewish vegan thought-leaders, this tome features essays that touch upon everything from Jewish spirituality and philosophy, to holidays, and health (and much more)! THE JEWISH VEGAN is the perfect companion for the journeyer seeking a new approach to the relationship they have with what is on their plate...

Book Save the Deli

  • Author : David Sax
  • Publisher : HMH
  • Release : 2009-10-19
  • ISBN : 0547417357
  • Pages : 335 pages

Download or read book Save the Deli written by David Sax and published by HMH. This book was released on 2009-10-19 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Beard Award Winner: A cultural history and culinary travelogue from “the M.F.K. Fisher of pickled meats” (A. J. Jacobs). These days there are very few places you can get authentic hot pastrami sandwiches, delicious matzo ball soup, and chewy, crusty rye. In this travelogue, die-hard delicatessen lover David Sax searches out the best Jewish delis around the United States—and the world—and digs deep into the history of the deli: its characters, greatest triumphs, spectacular failures, and uncertain future. Going far beyond New York landmarks, past and present, like Katz’s, the Carnegie Deli, and the Second Avenue Deli, to Chicago, Florida, LA, Montreal, Toronto, Paris, and beyond, Save the Deli is the story of diaspora, and of one man’s quest to save a defining element of the culture—and the food—he loves. It even includes a glossary of food and Yiddish terms, for the goyim or the woefully assimilated. Just don’t read it on an empty stomach. “An epic journey, akin to The Odyssey but with Rolaids.” —Roger Bennett, author of Bar Mitzvah Disco

Book Steven Berkoff  One Act Plays

Download or read book Steven Berkoff One Act Plays written by Steven Berkoff and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steven Berkoff has been variously described as controversial, thrilling, electric and dynamic. A Renaissance man of the theatre, he is known equally for his writing, directing and acting. Collecting together nineteen one-act plays, this volume presents never-before-published material. Abusive, shocking and endlessly surprising, these sharply written pieces showcase Berkoff's trademark controversy, black humour and dramatic dialectics. Themes that haunt much of his work are present: his luxurious verbosity; his counterpoint of crude street-patter and elegiac proclamation; sex wars; class wars; dislocation and abandonment of love in a thankless and unyielding world. The selection of plays allows the performer and reader to experience Berkoff's fluid anarchic poetry at its most profane within the complete and pithy structure of the one-act play. Established plays such as The Biblical Tales (which enjoyed success in their 2010 run at the New End Theatre, Hampstead) stand alongside previously unpublished material, giving the range of Berkoff's work full expression, from his established thematic concerns to his new and unseen work. Perfect for student and amateur performances, this volume contains a full introduction by Geoffrey Colman, Head of Acting at the Central School of Speech and Drama.
