Summary

This ebook gives the definition, benefits, and recipes in the Mediterranean diet.Pros of eating a Mediterranean diet.

•    It lets you eat only what you love. The Mediterranean diet comprises a variety of whole, fresh foods, making it easy for you to build some good food options from the diet. The foods that make up this diet just need minor tweaks. For instance, instead of a sausage and pepperoni pizza, you can choose one diet fully piled with veggies.

You are free to include a lot of food types in a meal. When you fill-up your meal with fresh foods like fruit and vegetables, they will help you build volume into your meals so that you can consume fewer calories.

•    The diet is low in saturated fat. The Mediterranean diet saves you from constant hunger since it has a variety of healthy fats in it. The diet limits large amounts of red or processed meats, which helps you consume more monounsaturated fatty acids like nuts, avocado, and olive oil. These fatty acids reduce cholesterol intake, which is high in saturated fats.

•    The Mediterranean diet lowers the risk of getting cancer. A growing number of studies indicate that people following a Mediterranean diet have a lower chance of getting colon cancer, prostate cancer, and some neck and head cancers. These studies were published in September 2016 in the British Journal of Cancer, in the European Journal of Cancer Prevention in September 2017, and in the Journal of Urology in February 2018

    The Irish Pub Cookbook

    More than seventy amazing Irish pub recipes, from the classic favorites you love to the contemporary specialties sure to delight. 
 
Talk about the luck of the Irish! One of the most beloved of Irish institutions (there are more than one thousand in Dublin alone), the traditional pub has served generations as the venue for local gossip, sporting news, a ceilidh or two, literary soirees, real estate deals, political debates, revolutionary plots, and, lest we forget, for knocking back a pint of Guinness or a “ball of malt.” The food’s not bad either—as The Irish Pub Cookbook so deliciously demonstrates. It’s a celebration of more than seventy pub classics: thick soups and stews; savory tarts and meaty pies; big bowls of salad (times change!); and desserts of the seconds-are-always-appropriate variety. There’s shepherd’s pie, fish and chips, seafood chowder, and whiskey bread pudding for those with a taste for the quintessential. Contemporary specialties such as Bacon, Blue Cheese, and Courgette Soup; Salmon Cakes with Dill and Wine Sauce; Braised Lambshanks with Red Currants; and White Chocolate Terrine spotlight modern Irish cooking’s richly deserved acclaim. Complete with pub photos, history, and lore, nobody leaves hungry when The Irish Pub Cookbook is in the kitchen. 
 
Praise for The Irish Pub Cookbook 
 
“In The Irish Heritage Cookbook, Johnson continues on her mission to inform Americans that contemporary Irish cooking means not just a rustic, stick-to-your-ribs Irish Stew with Brown Soda Bread, but also Green Tomato Tarte Tatin, as original and sophisticated as one found anywhere in Europe. The book reads like a tourist itinerary for hungry pub crawlers . . . and shares history on favorite pubs and their famous and infamous patrons and proprietors. Leigh Beish’s full-page photos deliver elegant interpretations of humble pub grub like Bacon and Cabbage, and Ploughman’s Lunch.” —Publishers Weekly

  • Manly Meals and Mom's Home Cooking - Cookbooks and Gender in Modern America - cover

    Manly Meals and Mom's Home...

    Jessamyn Neuhaus

    A study of what American cookbooks from the 1790s to the 1960s can show us about gender roles, food, and culture of their time. 
 
From the first edition of The Fannie Farmer Cookbook to the latest works by today’s celebrity chefs, cookbooks reflect more than just passing culinary fads. As historical artifacts, they offer a unique perspective on the cultures that produced them. In Manly Meals and Mom’s Home Cooking, Jessamyn Neuhaus offers a perceptive and piquant analysis of the tone and content of American cookbooks published between the 1790s and the 1960s, adroitly uncovering the cultural assumptions and anxieties—particularly about women and domesticity—they contain. 
 
Neuhaus’s in-depth survey of these cookbooks questions the supposedly straightforward lessons about food preparation they imparted. While she finds that cookbooks aimed to make readers—mainly white, middle-class women—into effective, modern-age homemakers who saw joy, not drudgery, in their domestic tasks, she notes that the phenomenal popularity of Peg Bracken’s 1960 cookbook, The I Hate to Cook Book, attests to the limitations of this kind of indoctrination. At the same time, she explores the proliferation of bachelor cookbooks aimed at “the man in the kitchen” and the biases they display about male and female abilities, tastes, and responsibilities. 
 
Neuhaus also addresses the impact of World War II rationing on homefront cuisine; the introduction of new culinary technologies, gourmet sensibilities, and ethnic foods into American kitchens; and developments in the cookbook industry since the 1960s. More than a history of the cookbook, Manly Meals and Mom’s Home Cooking provides an absorbing and enlightening account of gender and food in modern America. 
 
“An engaging analysis . . . Neuhaus provides a rich and well-researched cultural history of American gender roles through her clever use of cookbooks.” —Sarah Eppler Janda, History: Reviews of New Books 
 
“With sound scholarship and a focus on prescriptive food literature, Manly Meals makes an original and useful contribution to our understanding of how gender roles are institutionalized and perpetuated.” —Warren Belasco, senior editor of The Oxford Encyclopedia of American Food and Drink 
 
“An excellent addition to the history of women’s roles in America, as well as to the history of cookbooks.” —Choice
