Download or read book The Great Clam Cake and Fritter Guide written by Carolyn Wyman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget lobster rolls and crab cakes. The dish East Coast residents really clamor for are clam cakes and fritters. In Maine, it's a deep-fried clam patty; in Virginia, a clam-filled pancake; in Southern New England, clam doughnut holes that are a summer sacrament despite their bad nutrition, frequent greasiness and limited availability (or actually, maybe, because of those things). The Great Clam Cake and Fritter Guide digs into the origins of these cultish regional treats, profiles 50 of the best clam-cake/fritter-making restaurants and shacks and details the most significant artistic and event tributes to this food on Family Guy, in Don Bousquet cartoons and a Pulitzer Prize-winning short story, among others. Do-it-yourselfers will delight in the book's bike and car clam cake crawl itineraries, guides to cake-side beaches and 20-plus recipes. The Great Clam Cake and Fritter Guide is the definitive clam cake/fritter history, cookbook and travel guidebook, and your dream of lounging around beautiful seacoast settings stuffing your face with delicious fried seafood come true!

Download or read book A South You Never Ate written by Bernard L. Herman and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nestled between the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, and stretching from Hampton Roads to Assateague Island, Virginia's Eastern Shore is a distinctly southern place with an exceptionally southern taste. In this inviting narrative, Bernard L. Herman welcomes readers into the communities, stories, and flavors that season a land where the distance from tide to tide is often less than five miles. Blending personal observation, history, memories of harvests and feasts, and recipes, Herman tells of life along the Eastern Shore through the eyes of its growers, watermen, oyster and clam farmers, foragers, church cooks, restaurant owners, and everyday residents. Four centuries of encounter, imagination, and invention continue to shape the foodways of the Eastern Shore of Virginia, melding influences from Indigenous peoples, European migrants, enslaved and free West Africans, and more recent newcomers. Herman reveals how local ingredients and the cooks who have prepared them for the table have developed a distinctly American terroir--the flavors of a place experienced through its culinary and storytelling traditions. This terroir flourishes even as it confronts challenges from climate change, declining fish populations, and farming monoculture. Herman reveals this resilience through the recipes and celebrations that hold meaning, not just for those who live there but for all those folks who sit at their tables--and other tables near and far.
