About this book

"More than fifty years ago, an eclectic crew brought their big dreams to an offbeat state. In a region mostly known for its vast forests, volcanic peaks, verdant valleys, and rain--so much rain--they wanted to plant grape vines. Despite a choir of skeptics from more established wine regions, this fearless collective stayed true to its vision. Oregon, it turns out, is climatically one of the best places to grow grapes on the planet. It experiences coastal influences from the Pacific Ocean and long hours of sunlight in the summer growing season without intense heat, making it perfect for wine grapes to slowly ripen and develop highly complex flavors. Everything from Albariño to Zinfandel can grow and thrive here, but Pinot Noir remains ever-popular since it was first planted over fifty years ago. And if you take a road trip through the windswept and waterfall-saturated Columbia River Gorge or down to the mountainous and deeply forested Applegate Valley, you'll find grape growers in these areas cultivating an array of lesser-known varieties, from Mencia to Vermentino. Wine is a universal language--an expression of time, place, and memories best shared around the dinner table. And as we well know, wine and food are the great connectors. Oregon Wine + Food brings together the stories of forty renegade winemakers accompanied by eighty recipes from some of the state's leading chefs. The recipes focus on ingredients abundant in the Pacific Northwest--fresh seafood, seasonal vegetables, native plants, and wild mushrooms--that can be enjoyed and procured by home cooks everywhere. Some recipes are personal favorites shared by the winemakers; others come from a kindred group of chefs who are just as dedicated to celebrating and preserving the region's bounty. Oregon Wine + Food is a culmination of stories from Oregon's wine country that can be shared around the table. It is designed for anyone interested in wine, food, and community" --

The Fannie Farmer Cookbook

Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of America's Great Classic Cookbook

Marion Cunningham, Fannie Farmer Cookbook Corporation, Archibald Candy Corporation

Essential for home chefs, here is the great basic American cookbook—with more than 1,990 recipes, plain and fancy—that belongs in every household. Originally published in 1896 as The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book by Fannie Merritt Farmer, it became the cookbook that taught generations of Americans how to cook. Completely updating it for the first time since 1979, with this edition, Marion Cunningham made Fannie Farmer once again a household word for a new generation of cooks. What makes this basic cookbook so distinctive is that Marion Cunningham is always at your side with forthright tips and comments, encouraging the beginning cook and inspiring the more adventurous. In giving the book new life, Mrs. Cunningham has been careful always to preserve the best of the old. She has retained all the particularly good, tried-and-true recipes from preceding editions, retesting and rewriting when necessary. She has rediscovered lost treasures, including delicious recipes that were eliminated when practically no one baked bread at home. This is now the place to find the finest possible recipes for Pumpkin Soup, Boston Baked Beans, Carpetbag Steak, Roast Stuffed Turkey, Anadama Bread, Indian Pudding, Apple Pie, and all of the other traditional favorites. The new recipes reflect the ethnic influences—Mediterranean, Moroccan, Asian—of contemporary American cooking. Tucked in among all your favorites like Old-Fashioned Beef Stew, New England Clam Chowder, you'll find cool Cucumber Sushi, Enchiladas with Chicken and Green Sauce, and Polenta and Fish. Throughout, cooking terms and procedures are explained, essential ingredients are spelled out, basic equipment is assessed. Mrs. Cunningham even tells you how to make a good cup of coffee and how to brew tea properly. The emphasis here is on good flavor, fresh ingredients, and lots of variety in one's daily fare, which Marion Cunningham believes is the secret to a healthy diet. Dedicated to the home cooks of America, young and old, this thirteenth edition of the book that won the hearts of Americans more than a century ago invites us all—as did the original Fannie Farmer—to cherish the delights of the family table.

Pizza, A Slice of American History

Liz Barrett

This book tells the story of how this beloved food became the apple of our collective eye-or, perhaps more precisely, the pepperoni of our pie.

Each chapter investigates a different pie: Chicago's famous deep-dish, New Haven's white clam pie, California's health-conscious varieties, New York's Sicilian and Neapolitan, the various styles that have emerged in the Midwest, and many others. The components of each pie-crust, sauce, spices, and much more-are dissected and celebrated, and recipes from top pizzerias provide readers with the opportunity to make and sample the pies themselves.

Creamy & Crunchy

An Informal History of Peanut Butter, the All-American Food

Jon Krampner

Americans spoon it out of the jar, eat it in sandwiches by itself or with its bread-fellow jelly, and devour it with foods ranging from celery and raisins ("ants on a log") to a grilled sandwich with bacon and bananas (the classic "Elvis"). Peanut butter is used to flavor candy, ice cream, cookies, cereal, and a wide variety of other foods. It is a deeply ingrained staple of American childhood and cuisine. Creamy and Crunchy features the stories of Jif, Skippy, and Peter Pan; the resurgence of natural or old-fashioned peanut butter; the five ways today's product is different from the original; the plight of black peanut farmers; the role of peanut butter in fighting Third-World hunger; and the Salmonella outbreaks of 2007 and 2009. The story of peanut butter is the story of twentieth-century America, and Jon Krampner writes its first popular history, rich with anecdotes and facts culled from interviews, research, travels in the peanut-growing regions of the South, and recipes.
