Winner of Best Literary Food Writing (in English) category at the World Cookbook Fair, this is a lively journey discovering Ireland's food, people and music. If Peta hadn't known of her Irish ancestry, her love of potatoes would have betrayed it. Peta always connects with a place through its food, and in visiting the country of her forebears she set herself a difficult task. But it didn't take long for Peta to find the world-class restaurants hidden up windy cobbled streets, to savour the delights of grand country cooking, high-quality primary produce and seafood from sleepy fishing villages. She dances her way between such traditional fare as Guinness, barmbrack and black puddings and refined fusion dishes of roasted tomato and goat cheese charlotte with lentils and basil oil and cured wild salmon topped off with slugs of fine Irish whiskey. In this wonderful account of travelling through Ireland, Peta searches for its gastronomic heartland, introduces her intriguing relatives, discovers her love of music is intricately intertwined with Irish social life and eating habits, and spins tales both traditional and true.

THIRD PERSON PERSPECTIVEEmergency and the White Crystal shows how sometimes we are not safe by just calling 911. There are many real heroes who put their lives on the line in the police, fire, and EMS. The main character, Jack Lafoot, just graduated Emergency Medical Technicians training school. He is ready for the real world in the EMS. Jack lives alone in a second-floor apartment on the floor above Eleanora Dunn, a sweet old woman. His girlfriend Shelly Straight is a longtime partner and lover since high school. Her mother Emily Straight is the emergency room head nurse at the Jem City General Hospital. Her father John works in a warehouse down by the waterfront docks. Jack and Shelly's nights out for fun are few, but they manage to enjoy their times at Alley Burger restaurant. Jack starts his new job the next morning as an EMT on the city ambulances. He meets his coworkers. First, there is Roy the dispatcher, his new partner Mike Zaber, and Captain Black their boss. Jack breaks into the EMS as he learns about life and death. Jack and Mike become a tight crew, one of the best in the city, saving lives. One day an illegal drug lab blew up causing a deadly warehouse fire, killing the "cooks," who manufactured methamphetamines, street-named white crystal. Frankie and Lasalle Sabelly, brothers, who oversaw the operation, blamed the EMS people for not saving their people's lives. They claimed restitution against the law and EMS. Jack and Mike happened to be number one on the mob hit-list. The East Coast cartel mobsters held a meeting to scheme, and plan their hits. Jack and Shelly's future is put on hold, as the couple was kidnapped and ransomed for a very large sum of money. Detective Dan Demarco and Detective Brian Leman are called in to solve this huge problem, as Jem City is in turmoil over the mob's claim for retaliation against the authorities.

Barrafina brings you brilliant tapas-style recipes from Sam and Eddie Hart and Nieves Barragan Mohacho, creators of the best Spanish restaurants in LondonWhen Sam and Eddie Hart opened Barrafina, their no-reservations tapas bar and restaurant in London's Soho, they had no idea how successful it would be. Eight years, two more branches and one Michelin star later, Barrafina is always packed, always stylish, always lively. And so is the food: together with their Basque-born head chef Nieves Barragan Mohacho, the Harts are cooking the best Spanish food in London today. In this cookbook they share their secrets and recipes: this is not difficult, fancy restaurant food, but gutsy, fresh, sometimes delicate, sometimes hearty food, that a home cook will be able to prepare easily. First, there is food to eat with your hands: fried pimientos de Padron, salt cod fritters and delicias, the Spanish equivalent of Devils on Horseback. Then cold meats; on to fish and shellfish - from simple razor clams on the grill, to more sophisticated dishes such as turbot with cavolo nero; rice dishes and paellas; big dishes of roast and braised meat - from suckling pig for a special occasion to rabbit stew or roast cumin-rubbed pork with quince sauce; and desserts in the form of chocolate and almond tarts, cakes and the classic Crema Catalana. There is everything here to help you recreate great Spanish food at home. With over 120 recipes, Nieves, Sam and Eddie will whisk you through step-by-step instructions, showing you everything, from how to make the more difficult things, such as arrocina beans with chorizo, morcilla and pork belly, to how to cook a simple but perfect tortilla.'Possibly the best Spanish cookbook ever' Rachel Cooke, Observer Food Monthly'Barrafina! A joy! Nieves's food and Sam and Eddie's charm: now with this splendid book you can do it at home' Fergus Henderson'Barrafina is a tapas bar and the best of its kind. the food is fantastic' Giles Coren, The Times

According to their friends, Tom and Pippa Drummond have the perfect existence - a great lifestyle, a lively marriage, and a great kid in Tally. In their late thirties, living in a converted barn on the edge of the Sussex Downs, Tom is a partner in 'The Pelican', a restaurant in Axbury Minster, and Pippa, after a short career as a cook, grows herbs for sale locally and brings up sixteen-year-old Tally - a lively blonde with her head screwed firmly on to her shoulders. A rare summer holiday is planned - an idyllic retreat in the Italian hills. Tom takes time off from the restaurant, Pippa leaves her herbs in the charge of a dotty neighbour, and Tally takes a break from the two men in her life - fast-living Alex and the plodding, persevering 'Blip'. Tuscany is everything they hoped it would be - cicadas in the trees, the scent of sage and citrus and suppers under the stars. But their joy is short lived. Overnight their lives, their circumstances, their very identities are suddenly altered, and life will never be the same again. From being the envy of their friends, the Drummonds are plunged into a world that nobody would wish upon them.

From the creator of the first affordable sous vide machine comes this easy-to-follow cookbook that clearly illustrates how to harness the power of sous vide technology (the process of slow cooking ingredients to perfect tenderness using immersion circulation) to achieve restaurant-quality dishes, regardless of skill level. Sous vide has been a popular cooking technique in restaurants for years, offering tender and succulent dishes cooked to perfection, but until recently home cooks were unable to re-create these at home due to the restrictive cost and size of the sous vide machine. Now, with the advent of portable and affordable sous vide machines, this method is fast becoming one of the hottest trends in home cooking. Sous Vide at Home, by the CEO and founder of Nomiku-which produces the best-selling machine on the market-offers a much-needed accessible cookbook for a diverse audience, from home chefs to tech-minded millennials. The elegant design paired with recipes such as Halibut Tacos with Avocado Crema, Pomegranate Molasses Short Ribs, and Lemon Saffron Tart, makes Sous Vide at Home both essential and timeless. From the Hardcover edition.

Through interviews with top chefs working in professional kitchens all over the world, culinary students, line cooks and restaurant employees, Charnas reveals the ten major principles of mise-en-place - including 'Arranging spaces', 'Finishing actions' and 'Slowing Down to Speed Up' - and demonstrates how they can be used to boost productivity in all aspects of life.

'Memorable Meals with Quilty' is a book of seven short stories about the love of food and wine. It is a romantic look at dining on the grand scale, harking back to when people ate extravagantly. Quilty, a man of considerable size and personality, is at the end of his life, so he enlists our narrator, Sprite, to join him on his final quest, revisiting his favourite haunts for one last meal. Each whimsical journey is an epicurean delight, and through the use of fictional restaurants a particular style of cuisine is championed. Quilty, the passionate gourmet, passes along interesting and informative tidbits from his long experience to our storyteller. No meal, however, is truly memorable without the addition of a little humour and pathos. So the recipe for each story is a sprinkling of nonsense, a dash of sorrow, and a final touch of folly. Award winning Thai Artist Ohm Pattanachoti has contributed drawings for each story. Stories include:-'The Last Champion of Escoffier' reminds people of the important contribution this famous chef has made to modern cooking, and at the same time we discover Quilty's passion for food and wine came about as a result of unrequited love.'A Tuscan Tarantella' turns out to be more than a feast celebrating one of Italy's finest food areas, we learn of Quilty's amazing ability to dance.'A Greek Drama' finds Quilty caught in a clash between traditional cooking and modern interpretation, and in true Hellenic fashion, catharsis results.'A Chinese Rebellion' - It's not just the Peking Duck that gets a roasting in this Cantonese feast when Quilty loses his temper.'Lunching with Carmen' - Back on his feet after suffering a mild heart attack Quilty makes a nostalgic visit to a famous Spanish restaurant, and despite the fact it has changed with the times the presence of the owner's fiery daughter ignites youthful passions.'Divine Wind' - Quilty, confined to quarters as a result of a minor stroke, gets his old friend Yoshi Agastuma to cook a Japanese lu

Home Style Indian Cooking Demystified #1 Best Seller in Indian and Professional Cooking With an amazing compilation of over 100 delectable Indian dishes, many of which you can't get in any Indian restaurant for love or for money, this is unlike any other Indian Cook book. What this book focuses on is What Indians eat every day in their homes. It then in a step-by-step manner makes this mysterious, never disclosed, "Home Style" Indian cooking accessible to anyone with a rudimentary knowledge of cooking and a stomach for adventure. Prasenjeet Kumar, the corporate lawyer turned gourmand, explores The contours of what sets Indian "Home Style" food so apart from restaurant food. In his uniquely semi-autobiographical style, he starts with his quest for Indian food in London, wonders why his European friends don't have such a "strange" debate between "Home Style" and "Restaurant" food, and learns that the whole style of restaurant cooking in India is diametrically opposed to what is practiced in Indian homes with respect to the same dish. You may like this book if: * You are an Indian pining for a taste of your home food anywhere in the world, including India. * You are an Indian, reasonably adept in your own regional cuisine, for example, South Indian cuisine, but want to learn about the "Home Style" culinary traditions of the Eastern and Northern India as well. You are NOT an Indian but you love Indian cuisine and have wondered if someone could guide you through the maze of spices that Indians use, and help you tame down the oil and chilli levels of many of their dishes.

Researching the history of Authentic Mexican (Pre-Columbian) Cuisine arts is a challenge. There are so many different styles of cooking, from so many different regions, tribes and available ingredients, that people confuse Mexican Food with American Fast Food Mexican like Taco Bell. Sadly, there is so little similarity to American corporate restaurant cooking and the true flavors are rarely seen in English-speaking countries. We went on a search for recipes throughout all of Mexico. Recipes that were at least 200 years old, some going back over 500 years, and the result is Abuela's Secrets. Our team went straight to our grandmothers, in different regions to get recipes that were handed down, generation to generation to present day. Learn the natural way to cook, to prepare chile, make masa for tortillas, and make your own mole and other sauces. Cook beef, pork, shrimp, and others to their delicate and delightful flavors known only to families in Mexico. Time-honored recipes from every region will make your family believe that you have an authentic Mexican restaurant. right in your own home. Recipes include: Rice, Sauces, Eggs, Beans, Breads, and regional dishes from every part of Mexico.

This book was written for people with little or no cooking experience. Most of the recipes are for two people but the recipes can be scaled up. Exotic spices and other ingredients were avoided to keep the cost down and preparation simple, but flavor was not sacrificed. Many of the newly emancipated take the easy way out by eating out. But a steady diet of fast foods, Roach Coach cuisine, restaurant cooking or just plain grocery store frozen meals is unhealthy. A continuous diet of these foods taxes your body with unhealthy amounts of sugar, salt or fat. This "Trinity of Hell" is used to enhance flavor but over time it can have a devastating effect on the body. Part of the key to a long, healthy life is proper nourishment and that's what this book is all about. Exercise also plays a part but that can be achieved through physical labor, outdoor activity, or trips to the gym. This book covers these subjects, in enough detail, to keep you smiling for life. Pleasure can be achieved while avoiding the "Trinity of Hell".This book gives you delicious recipes, instructions on how to cook, background material on how to cook, and diet information on how to eat for health. Included are: Recipes. - For everything from casseroles to Thanksgiving dinner, and many in between. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and appetizers. Meats, salads, breads and sandwiches are also covered. Recipes include Tamale Pie, Cassoulet, stuffed turkey, Pizza, Chili and beans, Jambalaya, Portuguese Bean Soup, Ambrosia, desserts and candy.
