The Nom Wah Cookbook - Recipes...

Anônimo

For the last 100 years, Nom Wah Tea Parlor has been slinging some of the world’s greatest dim sum from New York’s Chinatown. Now owner Wilson Tang tells the story of how the restaurant came to be—and how to prepare their legendary dishes in your own home.
Nom Wah Tea Parlor isn’t simply the story of dumplings, though there are many folds to it. It isn’t the story of bao, though there is much filling. It’s not just the story of dim sum, although there are scores and scores of recipes. It’s the story of a community of Chinese immigrants who struggled, flourished, cooked, and ate with abandon in New York City. (Who now struggle, flourish, cook, and eat with abandon in New York City.) It’s a journey that begins in Toishan, runs through Hong Kong, and ends up tucked into the corner of a street once called The Bloody Angle.
In this book, Nom Wah’s owner, Wilson Tang, takes us into the hardworking kitchen of Nom Wah and emerges with 75 easy-to-make recipes: from bao to vegetables, noodles to desserts, cakes, rice rolls, chef’s specials, dumplings, and more.
We’re also introduced to characters like Mei Lum, the fifth-generation owner of porcelain shop Wing on Wo, and Joanne Kwong, the lawyer-turned-owner of Pearl River Mart. He paints a portrait of what Chinatown in New York City is in 2020. As Wilson, who quit a job in finance to take over the once-ailing family business, struggles with the dilemma of immigrant children—to jettison tradition or to cling to it—he also points to a new way: to savor tradition while moving forward. A book for har gow lovers and rice roll junkies, The Nom Wah Cookbook portrays a culture at a crossroads.
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

AMISH CANNING AND PRESERVING...

Josephine Fischer

If you were to ask people to tell you what it meant to be Amish, they would say, “It means living a simple, traditional life where the community is very tight knit, stay away from outsiders, and don’t use any technology invented after the dawn of the 20th century.” For the most part, this would be accurate. However, if that tenth person you asked happened to be Nana Ruth, my crooked backed, gnarled-faced, sharp-as-a-thumbtack grandmother, she would have a whole lot more to say about the matter. This is because, until the age of seventeen, Nana Ruth grew up in an Amish community known as the “Pennsylvania Dutch” out in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.  
When an Amish youth hit their late teens to early twenties, they’re allowed to go on a sort of “spring break” from being Amish, a ritual known as “Rumspringa.” Popular culture will often depict Rumspringa as a period of total anarchy for the participants, where they will wear scandalous clothing like t-shirts and jeans, dance to pop music they hear on the radio, and even watch daytime talk shows on the television. Plenty of partying and alcohol imbibing is included for good measure, just like many teens across the nation who are suddenly without parental guidance will indulge in. For Nana Ruth, though, Rumspringa was a far more mundane affair.
