Download or read book Passionate Vegetarian written by Crescent Dragonwagon and published by Workman Publishing. This book was released on 2002-10-14 with total page 1124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introducing a new voice in vegetarian cooking. Packed with 1,000 recipes that are seductive, sexy, and utterly delicious, Passionate Vegetarian covers all the bases of meatless cooking, from east (Stir Fry of Asparagus with Black Bean-Ginger Sauce), west (Talk of the Town Barbecued Tofu), from the Mediterranean (Swiss Chard with Raisins, Onions & Olives) to the American South (Black-Eyed Pea Ragovt). You'll find lush lasagnas; plump pierogies; bountiful burgers, beans, and breads; pleasing pasta and pies. You'll spoon up soups and stews, and delight in desserts from simple to swoonworthy. Written by longtime vegetarian Crescent Dragonwagon, author of Dairy Hollow House Soup & Bread Cookbook, Passionate Vegetarian employs innovative methods (try "Ri-sort-ofs," in which risotto technique is used to create splendid, richly flavored grain dishes built around not just rice but also barley, buckwheat, spelt, and even toasted oats with an array of seasonings) and introduces lesser-known ingredients (get to know and love not just tofu and tempeh but a whole new generation of soyfoods, as well as "Quick Fixes" like instant bean flakes). Opinionated, passionate, and deeply personal, Ms. Dragonwagon's tantalizing headnotes will have readers rushing to the kitchen to start cooking. (Can her over-the-top Garlic Spaghetti really be that good? It is.) Whether you're a committed vegetarian, a dedicated vegan (most recipes offer low-fat and vegan options), or a food-loving omnivore in search of something new and wonderful, this is not just vegetarian cooking--but cooking, period--at its most creative, inspiring, and exuberant.

Download or read book The Court of Two Sisters Cookbook written by Mel Leavitt and published by Pelican Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-10-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of 613 Rue Royale, the site of New Orleans' famous Court of Two Sisters restaurant, dates back to 1732--just fourteen years after the founding of the city, when it was the site of the home of Louisiana's second governor. Beginning in 1886, the legendary "two sisters," for whom the building and courtyard are named, operated a notions shop on the ground floor of the mansion. Located in the very center of "Governor's Row," 613 Royal became the focal point of Creole society. In many ways, the romance and history of the largest courtyard in the Vieux Carre epitomize the charm, the ambience, and the lifestyle of "America's most European city." A tribute to the history that has made the restaurant famous throughout the world, the cookbook has been revised and updated with new recipes from the acclaimed kitchens. The history of the courtyard and the French Quarter offers an intriguing background for the recipes that follow--recipes that are Creole-inspired and taste-tested by the discriminating palates of tens of thousands of customers. Although originally from New York, Mel Levitt became a fixture in New Orleans television on WDSU in the 50's and 60's. Considered one of New Orleans' leading historians and foremost television and radio personalities, he died in 1997. In 1963, the late Mr. Joe Fein, Jr., an established local restaurateur, acquired the restaurant and immediately began steps to preserve the building's historical integrity. Mr. Fein's sons, Joe III and the late Jerry Fein, continued with their father's dedication to The Court of Two Sisters and now their children, the third generation, are directing the day-to-day operations and maintaining the legacy of the property's history and reputation. With the Fein family's expertise, The Court of Two Sisters has become known worldwide for its live Jazz Brunch, romantic Creole dinners, friendly service and beautiful, open-air courtyard.

Download or read book Kosher Creole Cookbook written by Mildred L. Covert and published by Pelican Publishing Company. This book was released on 1989-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blend a dash of Kosher with a pinch of Creole and you have the Kosher Creole Cookbook. The authors have combined two famous culinary traditions: the Creole-a blend of certain aspects of French, Spanish, African, and American cooking-and the Jewish, dating from biblical times. Those who keep Kosher can now savor the Creole cuisine for which New Orleans is famous. Imaginative substitutes that unite to create authentic Creole flavor serve to replace ingredients that are in conflict with the laws of Kashruth. Arranged by month, the recipes highlight feasts and festivals in the Jewish calendar or in the city of New Orleans. Each chapter is also introduced by fascinating sketches about the history, traditions, and culture of the Crescent City. Jewish Week calls this volume "one of the most unusual cookbooks" seen in recent years. Kosher Creole Cookbook "combines two cuisines which would seem to have no business being together-kosher cooking with Creole cooking. This is a delightful and unusual addition to your collection of cookbooks." Mildred L. Covert and Sylvia P. Gerson have carefully researched and created recipes that adapt the characteristic flavors of each cuisine, whether it's Creole, Cajun, or Southern, to ensure that the traditional can keep Kosher without giving up flavor. The two New Orleanians have written three other Kosher cookbooks: Kosher Cajun Cookbook, Kosher Southern-Style Cookbook, and A Kid's Kosher Cooking Cruise (pb), all published by Pelican.

Here are recipes that hark back to a strong rural tradition of delicious thrift, and that literally represent Henderson's motto, "Nose to Tail Eating" -- be they Pig's Trotter Stuffed with Potato, Rabbit Wrapped in Fennel and Bacon, or his signature dish of Roast Bone Marrow and Parsley Salad. For those of a less carnivorous bent, there are also splendid dishes such as Deviled Crab; Smoked Haddock, Mustard, and Saffron; Green Beans, Shallots, Garlic, and Anchovies; and to keep the sweetest tooth happy, there are gloriously satisfying puddings, notably the St. John Eccles Cakes, and a very nearly perfect Chocolate Ice Cream.
