Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In this remarkable new cookbook, Bergo provides stories, photographs and inventive recipes.”—Star Tribune As Seen on NBC's The Today Show! "With a passion for bringing a taste of the wild to the table, [Bergo’s] inspiration for experimentation shows in his inventive dishes created around ingredients found in his own backyard."—Tastemade From root to flower—and featuring 180 recipes and over 230 of the author’s own beautiful photographs—explore the edible plants we find all around us with the Forager Chef Alan Bergo as he breaks new culinary ground! In The Forager Chef’s Book of Flora you’ll find the exotic to the familiar—from Ramp Leaf Dumplings to Spruce Tip Panna Cotta to Crisp Fiddlehead Pickles—with Chef Bergo’s unique blend of easy-to-follow instruction and out-of-this-world inspiration. Over the past fifteen years, Minnesota chef Alan Bergo has become one of America’s most exciting and resourceful culinary voices, with millions seeking his guidance through his wildly popular website and video tutorials. Bergo’s inventive culinary style is defined by his encyclopedic curiosity, and his abiding, root-to-flower passion for both wild and cultivated plants. Instead of waiting for fall squash to ripen, Bergo eagerly harvests their early shoots, flowers, and young greens—taking a holistic approach to cooking with all parts of the plant, and discovering extraordinary new flavors and textures along the way. The Forager Chef’s Book of Flora demonstrates how understanding the different properties and growing phases of roots, stems, leaves, and seeds can inform your preparation of something like the head of an immature sunflower—as well as the lesser-used parts of common vegetables, like broccoli or eggplant. As a society, we’ve forgotten this type of old-school knowledge, including many brilliant culinary techniques that were borne of thrift and necessity. For our own sake, and that of our planet, it’s time we remembered. And in the process, we can unlock new flavors from the abundant landscape around us. “[An] excellent debut. . . . Advocating that plants are edible in their entirety is one thing, but this [book] delivers the delectable means to prove it."—Publishers Weekly "Alan Bergo was foraging in the Midwest way before it was trendy."—Outside Magazine

Download or read book Celebrity Chef Serial Killer written by Richard Berrington and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Port, a 40-year-old man allegedly poisoned, molested, and then murdered four gay men between June 2014, and September 2015. According to some online sources, the murders took place between April 2014 and September 2015. Let us dig deeper and find out what happened. Four Gay Men Poisoned To Death Within A 14 Month Period Stephen Port used 'PinkNews', a dating website designed particularly for gays as well as Grinder, a dating app for gays to meet different men. He met four different men via the website and the app, and interacted with them on separate occasions. Once he established a familiarity with the men, he separately took all four of them to his house, over a 15-month period. Once inside the house, Stephen drugged them using GHB (Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid), a popular date rape drug. GHB is a strong hypnotic depressant colloquially referred to as liquid X, liquid E, liquid ecstasy, Georgia home boy, easy lay, natural sleep-500, scoop, gamma-oh, fantasy, soap, organic, gamma hydrate, sodium oxybate, cherry meth, G-riffic, Gib, somatomax, and grievous bodily harm. It mostly comes in liquid form mixable with other liquid ingredients. GHB causes drowsiness, forgetfulness and seizures, slowed breathing, and a decreased heartbeat. Its overdose leads to coma and death. The coma usually lasts two hours with recovery normally occurring within eight hours. Being a date rape drug, administers of this drug often use alcoholic drinks to administer the drug. Stephen laced the drinks of his victims and administered a very heavy dose of GHB. Within minutes of drinking their beverage, the victims fell to the ground and entered a coma-like state. Post-mortem reports conducted on the victims showed that the victim's corpses showed signs of sexual molestation before they died. Stephen had sexual intercourse with all four of his victims and then dumped their bodies at different locations. At the time of the crime, Stephen, now in custody and awaiting trial, lived in a flat located on Cooke Street in Barking, East London. Three of the dead bodies were discovered around St. Margaret's Churchyard, which is within half a mile of where he lived, while the fourth corpse was discovered on Cooke Street, close to Stephen's home residence. Stephen On Celebrity Master Chef UK Stephen Port also made a one-episode appearance on the famous television show 'Celebrity Master Chef UK' in June 2014, the very same month the body of his first victim was discovered. In the brief appearance he had on television, Stephen was seen giving meatballs and pasta to various bus drivers. It was the fourth episode of the ninth season of the show and the celebrity chefs had to prepare a meal for 100 bus drivers. Stephen appeared on the show wearing a white chef's hat with a blond toupee beneath it. He assisted JB Gill, a famous JLS singer and Emma Barton, a renowned soap opera actor who appeared on 'EastEnders' prepare and serve the meal to the drivers. Later, when Stephen was accused of the crime, one of the spokesperson for the Stagecoach London and West Ham Bus Garage stated that Stephen was not an employee of Stagecoach; rather, a catering company that was not aware of Stephen's criminal activities had outsourced him. The image below shows Stephen standing next to JB Gill on the show.

Book excerpt: 2018 James Beard Award Winner: Best American Cookbook Named one of the Best Cookbooks of 2017 by NPR, The Village Voice, Smithsonian Magazine, UPROXX, New York Magazine, San Francisco Chronicle, Mpls. St. PaulMagazine and others Here is real food—our indigenous American fruits and vegetables, the wild and foraged ingredients, game and fish. Locally sourced, seasonal, “clean” ingredients and nose-to-tail cooking are nothing new to Sean Sherman, the Oglala Lakota chef and founder of The Sioux Chef. In his breakout book, The Sioux Chef’s Indigenous Kitchen, Sherman shares his approach to creating boldly seasoned foods that are vibrant, healthful, at once elegant and easy. Sherman dispels outdated notions of Native American fare—no fry bread or Indian tacos here—and no European staples such as wheat flour, dairy products, sugar, and domestic pork and beef. The Sioux Chef’s healthful plates embrace venison and rabbit, river and lake trout, duck and quail, wild turkey, blueberries, sage, sumac, timpsula or wild turnip, plums, purslane, and abundant wildflowers. Contemporary and authentic, his dishes feature cedar braised bison, griddled wild rice cakes, amaranth crackers with smoked white bean paste, three sisters salad, deviled duck eggs, smoked turkey soup, dried meats, roasted corn sorbet, and hazelnut–maple bites. The Sioux Chef’s Indigenous Kitchen is a rich education and a delectable introduction to modern indigenous cuisine of the Dakota and Minnesota territories, with a vision and approach to food that travels well beyond those borders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between haute couture and haute cuisine, Parisian Commissaire Capucine Le Tellier finds murder to be more than the spécialité du jour. . . When the senior food critic for Le Figaro is found face-first in a plate of Ravioles d'homard, there seem to be as many suspects as there are restaurants in the City of Light. Yet Capucine feels she'll solve the case quicker than it takes to find a 3-star rating in the Michelin Guide. Un problem, murders of food critics have become an epidemic. And there are just as many suspects, including a sexy starlet, an award-winning novelist, and a smorgasbord of aggravated chefs. While Capucine struggles to zero in on the murderer's tastes, she is confronted with a false dilemma: file and forget the case, leaving restaurant critics across France vulnerable to a killer's episodic cravings, or use her husband, Alexandre, himself a famous food journalist, as irresistible bait.
