Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Atkins Diet? Phooey! The South Beach Diet? Feh! What Americans really want to eat is something deep-fried and sugar-packed . . . hence our undying love affair with the beloved donut. And if anybody knows donuts, it's Sally Levitt Steinberg, America's Donut Princess. As a member of America's royal donut dynasty (her grandfather, Adolph Levitt, invented the donut-making machine), she knows more about this sweet indulgence than anyone else. The Donut Book is the product of Sally's personal charm and life-long, in-depth donut scholarship. She covers high points in donut history: the arrival of the first donuts in America with the Dutch settlers in the 17th century, and the donut in World War I, when it became the favorite nosh of the boys in the trenches. She celebrates donut-loving celebrities, from Admiral Byrd to Bill Clinton, as well as some of the most gifted donut bakers on the planet. She visits the campus of Dunkin' Donuts University and reveals the secret that makes Krispy Kreme donuts irresistible. And she identifies the most popular donut in America (glazed) and the runner-up (chocolate). Then there are the recipes: 29 mouth-watering, soul-satisfying ways to achieve the ultimate sugar rush, from New Orleans beignets to Portuguese malasadas, from Boston crèmes to Alain Ducasse's upscale Donut. And for donut lovers who are willing to hit the road to find their favorite confection, the book comes with an illustrated Donut Lover's Guide to bakeries that serve up the lightest, fluffiest, best dressed, and tastiest donuts.

  • Release : 2006-05-18
  • ISBN : 1440628645
  • Pages : 121 pages

Download or read book Donuts written by John T. Edge and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-05-18 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed food writer and cultural historian John T. Edge conjures nostalgia by revealing portions of our history through our most cherished foods. Donuts is the cap on a scrumptious series toting comfort food, belying calorie-counting, and embracing those cornerstone, iconic dishes that have come to define American cuisine and customs over the years. In Donuts, Edge walks us though the donut's inception as Dutch fare, the Salvation Army's wartime donuts, the invention of the donut machine, the 1950s donut-shop craze, the Krispy Kreme revolution, the appropriation by other ethnicities, and the fanatical chefs that take donuts to a new art form. Nothing encourages our sweet-tooth cravings like the donut. It is honest. It is satisfying. It is a national symbol that has survived the low carb-diet dogma and the death of the local donut shop, and it is making a comeback into the hearts of Americans.

Book It Takes More Than a Donut to Make a Movie

Download or read book It Takes More Than a Donut to Make a Movie written by David Marder and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It Takes More Than A Donut To Make A Movie: The Adventures of a Hollywood Teamster is as unconventional and wide-ranging as David Marder's remarkable career as a Teamster in the fast paced and competitive world of Hollywood film production. Marder chronicles the highlights and the lowlights of his 40 year career of making movies. Some of the stories and events depicted in his book read like fiction; there going to challenge your logic, make your common sense feel like it just went 10 rounds with a proctologist, but their all true; that's just the way it happened David Marder's Teamsters career started in 1973, fresh from a brief stint as a guitarist in a Southern California rock band. Through a series of amazing events and "being at the right place at the right time," Marder climbed the ladder from driver to transportation coordinator-the head Teamster responsible for coordinating the army of people, vehicles and equipment needed to produce a movie. David Marder's reputation as a "get it done," problem solver, led to him being in demand for massive, "car crash" stunt intensive films such as Days of Thunder, The Fast and The Furious, Against All Odds, and XXX to name a few. It was "business as normal" for Marder to be responsible for coordinating the movements of 250 Teamster, 300 pieces of rolling stock and over 400 picture vehicles, simultaneously filming in three different states and sometimes, in two different hemispheres. Marder has taken his unique brand of "problem solving," on the road, filming, Beyond Rangoon in Malaysia, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor in China, Moon Over Parador, in Brazil, Ruby Cairo in Mexico, Germany, Greece, and Egypt. All total, Marder has worked in 14 foreign countries and 22 US cities. David Marder has worked on mega movie hits and a few ill-fated flops, but he has endured, witnessing the peaks of the movie business from the driver's seat. Weather it be responsible for the fabrication of hundreds of race cars, the movement of thousands of pieces of equipment, working with impossible budgets and tight schedules; or being assigned to chauffeur the likes of Alfred Hitchcock, Meryl Streep, Jeff Bridges, 2-year old twin girls, or the director's beloved Bassett hound--Marder has done it all. It Takes More Than A Donut To Make A Movie is packed with intriguing stars and stories, directors with drama, prodigious producers as well as Marder's practical problem-solving skills which have contributed to the successfully completion of over 40 movies and TV shows. Interwoven through his personal history, Marder humorously illustrates the intense nature and complexity of film production, from the early 70's with pictures like Days of Thunder, to gigantic franchises like The Fast and Furious that when on to gross $3.9 billion worldwide. Full of chaos, overblown egos and quick thinking found in the stressful environment of movie-making-these colorful and hilarious experiences-offer vivid, first-person accounts of real-world Hollywood that are as genuine as David Marder himself.
