Download or read book La Caja China Grill written by Perry Perkins and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grilling. It's the most primitive of all the cooking methods. Picture our ancient ancestors speaking chunks of raw meat on sticks and gathering around a communal fire to roast their meal. Grilling is not BBQ, despite the confusion spread by interchanging the two terms. BBQ is meat cooked "low and slow" indirectly, with a long period of contained wood smoke. Grilling, is all about the fire. Searing foods directly, indirectly, over wood coals or charcoal briquettes, to create flavorful crust and char marks, exponentially increasing the umami flavors in the meat.From the standpoint of the Caja China cook, the difference can be summed up simply: If it's cooking above the coals, it's grilling, if it's cooking in the box, with smoke, it's BBQ. No smoke...you're roasting.La Caja China Grill provides the roasting box owner with detailed instructions for both direct and indirect grilling, specifically on the "top grills" of the Cuban-style pig-roasting boxes and Cajun Microwaves, whose popularity have exploded with their exposure on Food Television, and with cooks and chefs like Bobby Flay, Andrew Zimmern, and Martha Stewart. Perkins, a professional chef and cookbook author, provides tip on charcoal types, the proper amounts to use for each recipe, what woods provide the best smoke for specific ingredients, and even the best wine pairings for various grilled dishes, in the all-inclusive guide to grilling on the "magic box."And, of course, there are the recipes... More than 70 delicious beef, pork, poultry, fish, and vegetable entrees for the grill, as well as sides, sauces, rubs, and everything the grill-master needs for the perfect flame-kissed meal. All recipes are fully illustrated, and many provide web-links to additional cooking tips, definitions, and how-to videos.Summer's coming! It's time to oil up those grills, fire up the coals...and make some magic!

Download or read book In This World of Ultraviolet Light written by Raul Palma and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These are new Cubans. Twenty-first-century Marielitos. Balseros, as the bartender had referred to them. I know, because my mom tells me that these are the kinds of Cubans I need to stay away from." In eight captivating stories, In This World of Ultraviolet Light—winner of the 2021 Don Belton Prize—navigates tensions between Cubans, Cuban Americans, and the larger Latinx community. Though these stories span many locations—from a mulch manufacturing facility on the edge of Big Cypress National Preserve to the borderlands between Georgia and the Carolinas—they are overshadowed by an obsession with Miami as a place that exists in the popular imagination. Beyond beaches and palm trees, Raul Palma goes off the beaten path to portray everyday people clinging to their city and struggling to find cultural grounding. As Anjali Sachdeva writes, "This is fiction to steal the breath of any reader, from any background." Boldly interrogating identity, the discomfort of connection, and the entanglement of love and cruelty, In This World of Ultraviolet Light is a nuanced collection of stories that won't let you go.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, Peru is recognized as one of the top food destinations on the planet. But twenty-five years ago, the world’s foodies focused their attention elsewhere—except for wine merchant–turned–archaeologist and art historian Robert Bradley. This delightful book is the product of twenty-five years of exquisite digressions from what Bradley might call his “real job”—the culmination of decades of his personal discoveries about the food of Peru and the history that led to its current culinary florescence. Journeying from coasts to highlands and back again, the intrepid author introduces us to the most interesting aspects of Peruvian cuisine that he encounters along the way, with several recipes included. Bradley sizzles about Peruvian ceviche, pisco and the pisco sour, and the country’s best restaurants—two ranked in the top ten by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2023. He does this all while sampling food lore, Andean anthropology, history, linguistics, and the pleasures and perils of travel within Peru. For the armchair tourist or the seasoned traveler, the gourmet and the gourmand, and the merely curious, Eating Peru offers a welcome break from everyday fare.

Book excerpt: “When it comes to swining and dining in Louisiana, Dixie Poché has it covered. From snout to tail . . . it’s all here.” —Chef John D. Folse, Louisiana’s “Culinary Ambassador to the World” Southwest Louisiana is famous for time-honored gatherings that celebrate its French Acadian heritage. And the culinary star of these gatherings? That’s generally the pig. Whether it’s a boucherie, the Cochon de Lait in Mansura or Chef John Folse’s Fete des Bouchers, where an army of chefs steps back three hundred years to demonstrate how to make blood boudin and smoked sausage, ever-resourceful Cajuns use virtually every part of the pig in various savory delights. Author Dixie Poché traverses Cajun country to dive into the recipes and stories behind regional specialties such as boudin, cracklings, gumbo and hogs head cheese. From the Smoked Meats Festival in Ville Platte to Thibodaux’s Bourgeois Meat Market, where miles of boudin have been produced since 1891, this is a mouthwatering dive into Cajun devotion to the pig. “Dixie Poche, author of two other looks at the state’s rich culinary traditions, Louisiana Sweets and Classic Eateries of Cajun Country, takes a deep dive into the connection of Louisiana’s unique people and food with the noble hog.” —Houma Today “The book takes a nostalgic look at visiting old-time ‘mom and pop’ Cajun meat markets and provides a behind-the-scenes look at the many dishes that made them famous. It also serves as a travel guide to many local eateries and festivals in which the culinary star is the pig.” —The Advocate

Download or read book Latino Food Culture written by Zilkia Janer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-03-30 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latino cuisine has always been a part of American foodways, but the recent growth of a diverse Latino population in the form of documented and undocumented immigrants, refugees, and exiles has given rise to a pan-Latino food phenomenon. These various food cultures in the United States are expertly overviewed here together in depth for the first time. Many Mexican American, Cuban American, Puerto Ricans, Dominican American, and Central and South American communities in the United States are considered transnational because they actively participate in the economy, politics, and culture of both the United States and their countries of origin. The pan-Latino food culture that is emerging in the United States is also a transnational phenomenon that constantly nurtures and is nurtured by national and regional cuisines. They all combine in kaleidoscopic ways their shared gastronomic wealth of Spanish and Amerindian cuisines with different African, European and Asian culinary traditions. This book discusses the ongoing development of Latino food culture, giving special attention to how Latinos are adapting and transforming Latin American and international elements to create one of the most vibrant cuisines today. This is essential reading for crucial cultural insight into Latinos from all backgrounds. Readers will learn about the diverse elements of an evolving pan-Latino food culture-the history of the various groups and their foodstuffs, cooking, meals and eating habits, special occasions, and diet and health. Representative recipes and photos are interspersed in the essays. A chronology, glossary, resource guide, and bibliography make this a one-stop resource for every library.
