    The term gingerbread can refer to all manner of moist cakes, sweet loaves and hard biscuits. The most common ingredients include ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, honey, treacle, dates, sugar and cloves. Ginger was originally used medicinally to settle upset stomachs, so biscuits and cookies were soon being sold in pharmacies, as well as monasteries and markets. By the end of the 18th century, gingerbread was extremely popular in towns like Market Drayton in Shropshire.
    Today, gingerbread refers to soft cakes and harder cookies like gingerbread men, which are a staple of children's parties, particularly around Christmas. Softer cakes are more popular in the United States, while the Belgians and Dutch tend to prefer a crumbly variant that is usually topped with butter and served at breakfast.
    This wonderful new ebook features 20 ginger-bread recipes guaranteed to get the taste buds tingling, from the classic gingerbread men, gingerbread houses and Christmas tree decorations to more modern twists such as gingerbread brownies, gingerbread latte fudge and maple gingerbread layer cake with salted caramel sauce.

    “A wonderful collection of warming recipes and stories perfect for the multicultural way we eat, entertain, and live today.” —Anita Lo, Michelin-starred chef and author of Solo 
     
    For more than 10 years, The Good Fork has been one of Brooklyn’s favorite restaurants. It’s a neighborhood spot that offers a rare treat in the crowded, slick New York food scene: a restaurant that feels like home. Chef Sohui Kim and her husband live down the block, blurring the lines between their kitchen at home and the restaurant kitchen. The Good Fork Cookbook is packed with Kim’s recipes for flavorful, globally inspired cuisine that a home cook can make any night of the week. Her influences and techniques range from French and Italian to American and Korean, but every dish is comforting, unfussy: Pork Dumplings; Korean-Style Steak and Eggs with Kimchee Rice and Fried Eggs; Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Waffles; and more. The Good Fork Cookbook shares the recipes that made The Good Fork Brooklyn’s favorite mom-and-pop shop. 
     
    “I believe that deep down inside, every American cook wants to cultivate the delicate touch, thoughtful spirit, and audacious flavors found in Sohui’s cooking. Her distinctive style of combining Korean traditions with contemporary American flavors in such a personal way makes her cooking, her restaurants, and now her cookbook a reference point for all that is good in our food world today.” —Michael Anthony, James Beard Award-winning chef, Gramercy Tavern  
     
    “With this book, you can—at last!—re-create Sohui’s incredibly flavorful, soulful, and comforting food in an actual home.” —Michelle Williams, actor

    “Explore[s] the ingenious outsider cooks, the obsessive impulses, and the raging gustatory dishes behind America’s newest food capitol.” —Mike Thelin, commentator for Unique Eats and co-founder of Feast Portland 
     
    The Mighty Gastropolis goes deep behind the scenes to explore the kitchens, personal lives, and mindsets of Portland’s celebrated cooks to chronicle, with humor and panache, a people’s army of maverick chefs, artisans, obsessives, farmers, food carters, and plucky pioneers who have created a risk-taking, no rules food town unlike any other: one that is exporting its culinary ethos, innovations, and sensibilities to America’s gastronomic power zones in New York, LA, Chicago, and countless other cities that are coming under its spell: a spell and culinary imagination that, according to Bon Appétit Restaurant and Drinks Editor, Andrew Knowlton, emanates from “a city thriving with creativity, passion, and an anything-goes attitude for all things edible.”  
     
    In this book, you will learn, ingredient by ingredient, experiment by experiment, dish by dish, how Portland’s culinary cognoscenti have re-imagined and reconfigured restaurant culture for modern times and established a new paradigm for how to succeed in the fiercely competitive, no-chops-barred worlds of both hi- and lo-fi dining. The result, as Thomas Lauderdale, founder of Pink Martini, explains, “is a hilarious, heart-warming, punk-rock portrait of a daringly creative Mecca showing the rest of America a better way to eat—and live.”  
     
    This is a landmark contribution to the literature of food. And, perhaps best of all, the book’s recipes are roadmaps to rarified states of gastro-nirvana.
