Book Forks  Knives   Spoons

Download or read book Forks Knives Spoons written by Peri Wolfman and published by Clarkson Potter Publishers. This book was released on 1994 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Peri Wolfman and Charles Gold -- authors of the best-selling The Perfect Setting -- comes the book that showcases one of today's favorite collectibles, vintage Forks, Knives & Spoons. Part of the fun in collecting is the search for new and unusual pieces, and Peri and Charley have amassed delicate coin silver tea spoons, bone-handled knives with rusted steel blades, wood-handled forks with decorative rivets, and picnic ware with bright Bakelite handles. They share the history behind the countless unusual serving pieces -- baked-potato forks, bread knives, and olive spoons among them -that date to Victorian times, and they identify the 29 place setting pieces still in manufacture today. The resource section offers advice on the care, cleaning, and storage of silver, steel, Bakelite, bone, and more. There are also names and addresses of some of the best places to shop for old silver and tableware. Charley's photographs capture the matte beauty of old steel, the warm gleam of silver, the glow of bone, and they offer inspiration for table settings. But the book's biggest bonus is the more than 35 recipes that are tasty ideas for putting your old finds to new use. In Forks, Knives & Spoons, Peri Wolfman and Charles Gold have created a book that both collectors and cooks are bound to relish.

  • Author : Bee Wilson
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2012-10-09
  • ISBN : 0465033326
  • Pages : 354 pages

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.

Romantic, witty and warm. There are three kinds of guys: forks, knives, and spoons. That is the final lesson that Amy York’s father sends her off to college with, never suspecting just how far his daughter will take it. Clinging to the Utensil Classification System as her guide, Amy tries to convince her skeptical roommate, Veronica Warren, of its usefulness as they navigate the heartbreaks and soul mates of college and beyond. Beginning in 1988, their freshman year at Syracuse University, Amy and Veronica meet an assortment of guys—from slotted spoons and shrimp forks to butter knives and sporks—all while trying to learn if the UCS holds true. On the quest to find their perfect steak knives, they learn to believe in themselves—and not to settle in love or life.

  • Author : Giovanni Rebora
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2001-10-17
  • ISBN : 0231518455
  • Pages : 217 pages

Download or read book Culture of the Fork written by Giovanni Rebora and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2001-10-17 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We know where he went, what he wrote, and even what he wore, but what in the world did Christopher Columbus eat? The Renaissance and the age of discovery introduced Europeans to exotic cultures, mores, manners, and ideas. Along with the cross-cultural exchange of Old and New World, East and West, came new foodstuffs, preparations, and flavors. That kitchen revolution led to the development of new utensils and table manners. Some of the impact is still felt—and tasted—today. Giovanni Rebora has crafted an elegant and accessible history filled with fascinating information and illustrations. He discusses the availability of resources, how people kept from starving in the winter, how they farmed, how tastes developed and changed, what the lower classes ate, and what the aristocracy enjoyed. The book is divided into brief chapters covering the history of bread, soups, stuffed pastas, the use of salt, cheese, meat, fish, fruits and vegetables, the arrival of butter, the quest for sugar, new world foods, setting the table, and beverages, including wine and tea. A special appendix, "A Meal with Columbus," includes a mini-anthology of recipes from the countries where he lived: Italy, Portugal, Spain, and England. Entertaining and enlightening, Culture of the Fork will interest scholars of history and gastronomy—and everyone who eats.

Book Feeding Desire

Download or read book Feeding Desire written by Sarah Coffin and published by Assouline. This book was released on 2006 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Eating is a social ritual, satisfying the needs of the body and building human relationships. For centuries, flatware and cutlery have served as extensions of our hands, enriching how we experience food and the act of eating. Knives, forks, and spoons are among our most intimate objects of daily use ; they come between hand and mouth, articulating the experience of dining. Accompanying a major exhibition at the Smithsonian's Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, 'Feeding Desire : Design and the Tools of the Table, 1500-2005' explores the evolution, physical forms, and social meanings of eating utensils over the past five centuries. Seven original essays accompanied by over 200 full-color and black-and-white illustrations reveal changing ideas about food, fashion, decoration, mobility, hygiene, and consumption."--
