Download or read book Turnip Greens Tortillas written by Eddie Hernandez and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the chef/restaurateur of a Bon Appétit “Top American Restaurant,” southern fare with a Mexican flair that is “thrifty, practical and delicious” (New York Times). USA Today called Taqueria del Sol “a runaway success.” Bon Appétit wrote: “Move over, Chipotle!” The fast-casual food of Eddie Hernandez, the James Beard-nominated chef/co-owner of the restaurant, lands on the commonalities of Southern and Mexican food, with dishes like Memphis barbecue pork tacos, chicken pot pie served in a “bowl” of a puffed tortilla, turnip greens in “pot likker” spiked with chiles, or the “Eddie Palmer,” sweet tea with a jab of tequila. Eddie never hesitates to break with purists to make food taste better, adding sugar to creamy grits to balance the jalapeños, or substituting tomatillos in fried green tomatoes for a more delicate texture. Throughout, “Eddie’s Way” sidebars show how to make each dish even more special. “Eddie Hernandez cooks my type of food—honest, thrifty, and full of flavor—using fresh, inexpensive, and ordinary ingredients.” —Jacques Pépin “In our world, Eddie is a culinary innovator as inspiring as Thomas Keller, René Redzepi, or Madhur Jaffrey.” —Matt Lee and Ted Lee, authors, The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen “From refried black-eyed peas to chicken–green chile potpies in puffy tortilla shells, Turnip Greens & Tortillas showcases honest and joyous cooking from the modern South.” —John T. Edge, author, The Potlikker Papers: A Food History of the Modern South “This book resonates with recipes that glorify home cooking from the South as well as Mexico and melds them together in a deliciously satisfying way.” —Nathalie Dupree, author, Mastering the Art of Southern Cooking

Download or read book Capital Beer written by Garrett Peck and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effervescent history of beer brewing in the American capital city. Imagine the jubilation of thirsty citizens in 1796 when the Washington Brewery—the city’s first brewery—opened. Yet the English-style ales produced by the early breweries in the capital and in nearby Arlington and Alexandria sat heavy on the tongue in the oppressive Potomac summers. By the 1850s, an influx of German immigrants gave a frosty reprieve to their new home in the form of light but flavorful lagers. Brewer barons like Christian Heurich and Albert Carry dominated the taps of city saloons until production ground to a halt with the dry days of Prohibition. Only Heurich survived, and when the venerable institution closed in 1956, Washington, D.C., was without a brewery for fifty-five years. Author and beer scholar Garrett Peck taps this high-gravity history while introducing readers to the bold new brewers leading the capital’s recent craft beer revival. “Why’d it take us [DC’s brewing culture] so long to get back on the wagon? Capital Beer will answer all your questions in the endearing style of your history buff friend who you can’t take to museums (in a good way!).” —DCist “In brisk and lively prose Peck covers 240 years of local brewing history, from the earliest days of British ale makers through the influx of German lagermeisters and up to the present-day craft breweries. . . . Richly illustrated with photographs both old and new, as well as a colorful collection of her art, Capital Beer is almost as much fun to read as “sitting in an outdoor beer garden and supping suds with friends over a long, languid conversation.”” —The Hill Rag

Book excerpt: Zombies, deadly chipmunks, tacos, and an out of control infection. So, reality, but funnier. Sid Singleton came to the El Coyote Gordo hoping for decent tacos and salsa fresca worthy of the name. Instead, he found zombies as zombie as any zombie ever zombied. Now it’s up to him to find every last staggering flesh-eating fiend in the surrounding Coyote National Forest in order to stop this local infection from making the world into a great big apocalypse enchilada. A grande burrito of a novel seasoned with snarky wit and unforgettable characters, it is book one in a series full of zombies, deadly chipmunks, and dark humor. Fans of Zombieland and John Dies at the End this is just your cup of infected gore! A tasty sample: I made it out to the parking lot in time to see the dishwasher pedaling away on his bike followed by a gruesome sombrero’d silhouette. Against the parking lot light, the tassels of that big sombrero dangled in time with the left forearm hanging by only a few stretched tendons from the place where the cook’s cleaver had chopped it. I heard his soccer dad sneakers scraping the pavement in dead bass notes under the receding high-pitched squeaks of the dishwasher’s bicycle chain. I wondered, would I see any sign of that cool soccer camping Dad demeanor if I looked in his eyes. I saw no difference in his behavior. From here, he was all zombie, no dad.

Download or read book How Jesus Saves the World from Us written by Morgan Guyton and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity has always been about being saved. But today what Christians need saving from most is the toxic understanding of salvation we've received through bad theology. The loudest voices in Christianity today sound exactly like the religious authorities who crucified Jesus. This is a book for Christians who are troubled by what we've become and who want Jesus to save us from the toxic behaviors and attitudes we've embraced. Each of the 12 chapters proposes an antidote for the toxicity that has infiltrated Christian culture, such as "Worship not Performance, "Temple not Program," and "Solidarity not Sanctimony." Each chapter includes thought-provoking discussion questions, perfect for individual or group study. There are many reasons to lose hope about the state of our world and our church, but Guyton offers one piece of good news: Jesus is saving the world from us, one Christian at a time.
Download or read book But Not for Love written by Edwin Shrake and published by TCU Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Texas Traditions Series reprint takes us back to the Lone Star State during the Cold War at the beginning of the 1960s. The postwar generation is in a frenzy of high living and profligate spending. Big Texas oil is still subsidized by a federal depletion allowance and cattle still account for much of the state’s wealth. But these longtime mainstays of Texas finance are giving way to transistors and computers. A new millionaire class is growing up around business mergers and electronic technology. The characters in Shrake’s novel are caught in this brave new world in one way or another. Some are the princes of prosperity; others are victims of it. This is a world of lobbyists, merger lawyers, small-time politicos, sons of oil money, and the women who cheer them on or worry about their souls. In the opening section of the novel, we visit the Texas Gulf Coast and see the machinations of Sam Guthrie and Waddy Morris Jr. as they attempt to take over a rival technology company. Back in Dallas, idealistic attorney Ben Carpenter moves to thwart the Guthrie/Morris takeover. Then we move to Fort Worth and attend the drunken party given in honor of Ben Carpenter’s thirtieth birthday. The party moved to Mexico on Cadmus Wilkins’s bus where everyone has to confront his or her inner self. And some are found wanting. The several vignettes of the novel paint an accurate picture of Texas as it moves into the urban era and as its middle class began deserting the old verities and tasting what were once forbidden pleasures. Shrake is a first-rate stylist who knows how the upper half lives.

Download or read book El Cinco de Mayo written by David Hayes-Bautista and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2012-05-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is Cinco de Mayo—a holiday commemorating a Mexican victory over the French at Puebla in 1862—so widely celebrated in California and across the United States, when it is scarcely observed in Mexico? As David E. Hayes-Bautista explains, the holiday is not Mexican at all, but rather an American one, created by Latinos in California during the mid-nineteenth century. Hayes-Bautista shows how the meaning of Cinco de Mayo has shifted over time—it embodied immigrant nostalgia in the 1930s, U.S. patriotism during World War II, Chicano Power in the 1960s and 1970s, and commercial intentions in the 1980s and 1990s. Today, it continues to reflect the aspirations of a community that is engaged, empowered, and expanding.
