Download or read book The Mushroom Hunters written by Langdon Cook and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2023-08-08 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully written portrait of the people who collect and distribute wild mushrooms . . . food and nature writing at its finest.”—Eugenia Bone, author of Mycophilia “A rollicking narrative . . . Cook [delivers] vivid and cinematic scenes on every page.”—The Wall Street Journal In the dark corners of America’s forests grow culinary treasures. Chefs pay top dollar to showcase these elusive and enchanting ingredients on their menus. Whether dressing up a filet mignon with smoky morels or shaving luxurious white truffles over pasta, the most elegant restaurants across the country now feature one of nature’s last truly wild foods: the uncultivated, uncontrollable mushroom. The mushroom hunters, by contrast, are a rough lot. They live in the wilderness and move with the seasons. Motivated by Gold Rush desires, they haul improbable quantities of fungi from the woods for cash. Langdon Cook embeds himself in this shadowy subculture, reporting from both rural fringes and big-city eateries with the flair of a novelist, uncovering along the way what might be the last gasp of frontier-style capitalism. Meet Doug, an ex-logger and crabber—now an itinerant mushroom picker trying to pay his bills and stay out of trouble; Jeremy, a former cook turned wild-food entrepreneur, crisscrossing the continent to build a business amid cutthroat competition; their friend Matt, an up-and-coming chef whose kitchen alchemy is turning heads; and the woman who inspires them all. Rich with the science and lore of edible fungi—from seductive chanterelles to exotic porcini—The Mushroom Hunters is equal parts gonzo travelogue and culinary history lesson, a fast-paced, character-driven tour through a world that is by turns secretive, dangerous, and quintessentially American.

Book excerpt: Laura Ingalls Wilder grew up on the prairie, where food was something one worked for, cooking was a big part of daily life, and mealtime was a chance to gather with family and give thanks. By watching Pa hunt and farm and by helping Ma prepare the food, Laura learned the pleasures that come from a family working together. Laura also experienced the joy that comes from sharing food, made with love and care, with family and friends. Here are over 100 unique recipes celebrating the foods and cooking techniques of Laura's pioneer childhood. Taken from dishes described in the beloved Little House books, these recipes were carefully researched by Barbara M. Walker and tested in her own kitchen.

Download or read book Insect and Hydroponic Farming in Africa written by Dorte Verner and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-12-16 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interestingly, some relief from today's woes may come from ancient human practices. While current agri-food production models rely on abundant supplies of water, energy, and arable land and generate significant greenhouse gas emissions in addition to forest and biodiversity loss, past practices point toward more affordable and sustainable paths. Different forms of insect farming and soilless crop farming, or hydroponics, have existed for centuries. In this report the authors make a persuasive case that frontier agriculture, particularly insect and hydroponic farming, can complement conventional agriculture. Both technologies reuse society's agricultural and organic industrial waste to produce nutritious food and animal feed without continuing to deplete the planet's land and water resources, thereby converting the world's wasteful linear food economy into a sustainable, circular food economy. As the report shows, insect and hydroponic farming can create jobs, diversify livelihoods, improve nutrition, and provide many other benefits in African and fragile, conflict-affected countries. Together with other investments in climate-smart agriculture, such as trees on farms, alternate wetting and drying rice systems, conservation agriculture, and sustainable livestock, these technologies are part of a promising menu of solutions that can help countries move their land, food, water, and agriculture systems toward greater sustainability and reduced emissions. This is a key consideration as the World Bank renews its commitment to support countries' climate action plans. This book is the Bank's first attempt to look at insect and hydroponic farming as possible solutions to the world's climate and food and nutrition security crisis and may represent a new chapter in the Bank's evolving efforts to help feed and sustain the planet.

Download or read book Consider the Fork written by Bee Wilson and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning food writer Bee Wilson's secret history of kitchens, showing how new technologies - from the fork to the microwave and beyond - have fundamentally shaped how and what we eat. Since prehistory, humans have braved sharp knives, fire, and grindstones to transform raw ingredients into something delicious -- or at least edible. But these tools have also transformed how we consume, and how we think about, our food. In Consider the Fork, award-winning food writer Bee Wilson takes readers on a wonderful and witty tour of the evolution of cooking around the world, revealing the hidden history of objects we often take for granted. Technology in the kitchen does not just mean the Pacojets and sous-vide machines of the modern kitchen, but also the humbler tools of everyday cooking and eating: a wooden spoon and a skillet, chopsticks and forks. Blending history, science, and personal anecdotes, Wilson reveals how our culinary tools and tricks came to be and how their influence has shaped food culture today. The story of how we have tamed fire and ice and wielded whisks, spoons, and graters, all for the sake of putting food in our mouths, Consider the Fork is truly a book to savor.

Download or read book Texas Frontier Foods II written by Elaine Coleman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern methods of cooking are somewhat based on the same methods of frontier times. The biggest difference is that today we have the aid of modern equipment. Our stoves, mixers, blenders, microwaves, and other utensils were not in existence for our ancestors. Recipes used way-back-when are much the same as today's, merely changed to meet the modern times. In frontier times, they used a "pinch" of this, a "dab" of that, a "dollop the size of an egg or walnut" a "smidgen" of seasoning and sometimes the recipe called for "enough liquid to make dough" or "enough flour to make a stiff dough." That wasn't even the best of it; there were those recipes that read "Use your own judgement." Sometimes I think it must have been difficult for a new bride who didn't know how to cook before she was married to know how to judge how much of an ingredient or how long to cook a mixture. It's funny that with all our modern equipment, most of us have to have the ingredients right down to the exact measurement. My mother cooked with a smidgen and a dash, so why can't I? She taught me and I've tried to teach my daughters. My granddaughters will also be taught what a dollop and a pinch mean, in order to follow family traditions. Even after women were presented with stoves for cooking, were not always assured the baking results. Some women had to heat their stoves with fagots, brush, and light kindling. Then hardwood was used because it heated much quicker. The self-sufficient women used four foot wood, split it finely, and piled it in a crisscrossed manner nearly filling the oven. Usually this made a roaring fire for cooking an hour or more. Temperature wise, if you could hold your hand inside the oven for a count of forty, it was right for baking bread. This could be achieved by raking the coals to one side and sweeping off the oven so that the soot didn't get on the bread. A count of twenty could be sufficient for baking rye or Indian bread. To prevent pies and cakes from scorching, an old broom was soaked in water and put on top of the oven until it dried out and the food was done. Now-a-days, we simply turn a dial on the oven to the desired temperature, set the time, and let it cook. Then there's the microwave and the crock pots which makes life so much easier for a working woman. Compare the recipes from frontier times to those we use now. I think you will be more grateful for your modern day conveniences. Follow along with me through the cooking adventures that follow while I explore Texas Frontier Foods.
