Download or read book Dad s Cuban Kitchen written by Eugenio Perez and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-06-23 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What a pleasure it is to be able to find all these food and much more here in the United States—in any grocery store or already prepared in any of the abundant Cuban restaurants. I often wonder why it took so long for Cuban cuisine to be embraced, although I realized that there were obstacles to overcome. Today, Americans have begun to understand that the cooking of Cuba is not as over spicy or greasy as some imagine it to be.

Download or read book Culinary Colonialism Caribbean Cookbooks and Recipes for National Independence written by Keja L. Valens and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women across the Caribbean have been writing, reading, and exchanging cookbooks since at least the turn of the nineteenth century. These cookbooks are about much more than cooking. Through cookbooks, Caribbean women, and a few men, have shaped, embedded, and contested colonial and domestic orders, delineated the contours of independent national cultures, and transformed tastes for independence into flavors of domestic autonomy. Culinary Colonialism, Caribbean Cookbooks, and Recipes for National Independence integrates new documents into the Caribbean archive and presents them in a rare pan-Caribbean perspective. The first book-length consideration of Caribbean cookbooks, Culinary Colonialism joins a growing body of work in Caribbean studies and food studies that considers the intersections of food writing, race, class, gender, and nationality. A selection of recipes, culled from the archive that Culinary Colonialism assembles, allows readers to savor the confluence of culinary traditions and local specifications that connect and distinguish national cuisines in the Caribbean.
Download or read book Havana Salsa written by Viviana Carballo and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-08-22 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than seventy mouthwatering recipes, this vibrant memoir by food writer Viviana Carballo shares the Havana of her childhood -- warm nights, pounding surf, energetic music, and the memorable meals that both nourished and delighted her and her family throughout the years. In the 1940s and 1950s, at the height of government corruption, Havana was a nonstop party. Food and music defined the culture, and the pervading sensuality -- the physical beauty of the city itself with its frisson of danger -- made it a magnet for tourists, gangsters, and the world's most glamorous celebrities. This was the Cuba of Viviana Carballo's magical childhood and adventurous adolescence. Born in 1939, she was the only child of a stylish and spirited woman and a handsome astrologer and writer, whose passion for food ignited Carballo's own taste for the exotic, eclectic cuisine for which Havana had become known. By the time she reached her teenage years, sultry nights dancing at the Tropicana and rubbing elbows with the likes of Ernest Hemingway, Meyer Lansky, and Guillermo Cabrera Infante nourished her hunger for the rhythm and creativity pulsating throughout her beloved city. But all of that changed in 1959, when Fidel Castro took command of this rollicking paradise, turning it into a country marked by extreme poverty, food shortages, power outages, and daily water stoppages. In 1961, Carballo left her beloved country with the clothes on her back and no idea when she would ever see her husband, family, or friends again. It is only through her memories that she has ever returned to the place that defined her. Havana Salsa is a collection of stories about her large, extended family, a rather eccentric group who conducted their lives against the extraordinary backdrop of Havana, and of her own experiences amid the city's former delicious decadence. It also showcases the food and recipes Carballo associates with each delightful family memory, beginning with her childhood in the forties (calabaza fritters, sweet plantain tortillas, and oxtail stew), through the sensual fifties (roast shoulder of lamb, Cuban bouillabaisse), and then the first eighteen months of Castro's revolution (mango pie, pollito en cazuela, and papas with chorizo). Havana Salsa tells the history of Carballo's Havana as only she can -- through the intimate and unifying experience of food, family, and friends.

Download or read book Paladares written by Anya von Bremzen and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the fresh flavors of contemporary Cuba in this gorgeously photographed volume of stories and recipes from the country’s enterprising restaurants. Over the past decades, paladares—or private restaurants—have led a cultural and culinary renaissance in Cuba. In Paladares, James Beard Award-winning food writer Anya von Bremzen shares a fascinating journey through the country’s new food scene. Born in Soviet Russia, Bremzen brings a unique perspective to the stories she hears from Cuba’s chefs, restaurateurs, farmers, and food historians. She eavesdrops on passionate arguments about black beans and tamales; pries Daiquirí secrets from the legendary El Floridita (Hemingway’s watering hole); and guides us to vibrant markets and visionary organic farms. Through Bremzen’s travels, we learn of Fidel’s obsession with dairy cows and hear wrenching memories of privation from the time after Soviet aid vanished. We meet colorful expats-turned-restaurateurs and local hipsters who obsess over global culture glimpsed in foreign movies and magazines. The more than 100 recipes in Paladares are as intriguing as the characters behind them. And Fawn Schlow’s evocative photographs frame it all with the ramshackle glamour of old Havana, Cuba’s stunning countryside, dishes that are earthy and innovative, and Cuba’s incredible people.

Just ninety miles across the water, devastatingly handsome Rafael De Leon grew up in the poorest part of Havana, where unforgiving streets taught him how to survive and relentless attention from female admirers turned him into a world-class lover. Simple pleasures were all he had. Now, amid the dark, misty straits halfway between Florida and Cuba, good girl Amanda can’t resist when a sexy, blue-eyed waiter named Rafa offers just one night dedicated exclusively to her pleasure, no strings attached. In between rounds of explosive lovemaking that take her to heights she never dreamed possible, the two form an unexpected bond after Rafa shares the details of his distinguished past. Amanda wants more, but Rafa, proud alpha male to the core, is unwilling to be a rich woman’s flavor of the month. Convinced she’ll only break his heart, he decides there’s no chance… until he opens the envelope she leaves behind. The Cuban is book one of the Magic in Miami series, the story of Rafa De Leon’s scorching hot love affair with heiress Amanda Rose and his dramatic rise to power as leader of a secret Santeria society with global political interests.

Download or read book Having Jesus for Dinner Community or Cannibalism written by Christopher Levan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-05-09 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Christians claim to know to Jesus as a friend or guide, as an inspiration and model. We adore him and even worship him. But what happens when you have him for dinner? This book explores the development of the meal practice of Jesus's followers as they move from having Jesus as the guest at their table, to having Jesus as the main course. Most believers don't give it a second thought now, but that is a dramatic change. Initially Jesus is the host at a common shared meal that signaled acceptance to all. In a few short years, Christians began "eating" Jesus as an act of devotion. "Jesus--the bread of life. Jesus--the true vine." How did this the shift from community to cannibalism take place? Does it make sense relative to Jesus's stated mission? And what have been the consequences of taking what began as ordinary shared supper and turning it into a symbolic and ritualized sacrament? Join Christopher Levan as we go from bread recipes to first-century meal practice. We'll recline with other disciples and relive the joys of having Jesus as the host and ask if we can reset the table of the Lord for the twenty-first century.
