Download or read book The Fat Hen Cookbook written by Frederick Neuville and published by . This book was released on 2015-05-25 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the Fat Hen Cookbook, a celebration of French Lowcountry cuisine and Charleston's rich Huguenot culture. The Huguenots were French Protestants influenced by the teachings of Martin Luther who established the French Reform Church in the 16th century and fled France to avoid persecution. In the late 1600s ships carrying dozens of families arrived in Charleston creating a Huguenot community that would attract hundreds of French Protestants over the next several decades. The Huguenots who fled France were educated and skilled artisans, merchants, craftsmen, bakers and chefs coming from all areas of France - from the busy streets of Paris to the rustic French countryside. Along with their skills and religion, the Huguenots also brought with them their love of food and the combination of French cuisine and local ingredients became French Lowcountry cuisine. French cuisine is characterized by its devotion to fresh ingredients, expert preparation, and complete flavor combinations. Coupled with the bountiful produce, meats, and seafood of the area, French Lowcountry cuisine creates a regional character of cooking found nowhere else in America. Fat Hen is committed to honoring the culinary history of French Lowcountry food through the creation of classic French preparations with the freshest local ingredients and by creating new classics in the spirit of the Huguenots. Examples of French Lowcountry include Duck Confit with Collard Greens and Squash, Flounder Nicoise over Bacon Cheese Grits, and Seared Grouper over Succotash.

Discover 90 exciting recipes showcasing weeds that are delicious, nutritious, medicinal, too good to waste—and free! Why should we eat our weeds? Because they are delicious, adding a palate of new flavors in everyday cooking. They are also nutritious and too good to waste. Weeds are actually more nutritious than most of the vegetables we grow or buy. They often have deep roots that loosen the soil and bring minerals up from far below. Weeds can help cover the soil, keep moisture in it, and preserve its fertility. They offer a second crop among our other plants, for free, and are often available in the late winter and early spring when our vegetables are yet to get going. When it's time to weed, the edible weeds can be eaten. Why throw perfectly good food on the compost heap? With weeds, as with all wild plants you may be planning to eat, proper ID is essential. Rule number one is eat only what you are sure of. In this book, Julie Bruton-Seal and Matthew Seal have provided clear photographs and other written identification details for twenty-two common weeds. They also give guidance on how to harvest safely and responsibly. And you'll find ninety delicious recipes highlighting your foraged goodies. Recipes include: Chickweed Pesto Daisy Tea Dandelion Flower Jam Elderberry Vinegar Orache Tart Ground Ivy Hot Cross Buns Hogweed Paella Mugwort and Mushroom Soup And more!

Download or read book A Hermit s Cookbook written by Andrew Jotischky and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-06-02 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did medieval hermits survive on their self-denying diet? What did they eat, and how did unethical monks get around the rules? The Egyptian hermit Onuphrios was said to have lived entirely on dates, and perhaps the most famous of all hermits, John the Baptist, on locusts and wild honey. Was it really possible to sustain life on so little food? The history of monasticism is defined by the fierce and passionate abandonment of the ordinary comforts of life, the most striking being food and drink. A Hermit's Cookbook opens with stories and pen portraits of the Desert Fathers of early Christianity and their followers who were ascetic solitaries, hermits and pillar-dwellers. It proceeds to explore how the ideals of the desert fathers were revived in both the Byzantine and western traditions, looking at the cultivation of food in monasteries, eating and cooking, and why hunting animals was rejected by any self-respecting hermit. Full of rich anecdotes, and including recipes for basic monk's stew and bread soup -- and many others -- this is a fascinating story of hermits, monks, food and fasting in the Middle Ages.

Book excerpt: Rob Grant's new novel is a revelation. After INCOMPETENCE we would all have expected a killingly funny satire.
