Sinopse

Fork Pierces Food unveils the surprisingly rich history of the fork, tracing its journey from a rare curiosity to an indispensable dining tool. This exploration illuminates how a simple utensil catalyzed significant shifts in social behavior, culinary practices, and Western culture itself. The book highlights fascinating facts, such as the initial resistance to the fork due to concerns about its effeminate nature and its eventual association with hygiene and refined table manners. The book delves into the fork's symbolic role as a status symbol, its influence on table manners, and its impact on food preparation. By examining historical documents, artwork, and etiquette manuals, it reveals how dining customs evolved alongside the fork's adoption. The book emphasizes the profound implications of technological change beyond mere functionality, highlighting its influence on values associated with dining. Beginning with the fork's medieval origins and its slow acceptance across Europe, the chapters progress to examine its impact on formal dining etiquette and food presentation. This approach offers readers a unique lens through which to understand broader historical and social transformations, revealing how a seemingly minor innovation reshaped Western dining traditions.

Welcome to the cider revolution — explore the fine cider movement, and the people and producers behind it.

Think you know about cider? Well, think again. It's not about the swill you guzzled as a student, or the so-called 'flavoured ciders' that don't actually contain any apples. The contemporary cider scene is an exciting place to spend some time, as passionate makers celebrate tradition and terroir while also embracing seasonality, innovation, and experimentation to produce characterful drinks that are quite remarkable. Cider is now a key player in the drinks industry, with a new breed of drink shops that take it just as seriously as wine. Cider looks at this modern cider movement, charting its beginnings and introducing some of the key players in fine-cider making, as well as guiding you through the characteristics of different apple varieties, the cider-producing regions around the world, the processes and techniques of cider production, how cider is an exceptional partner with food and, of course, recommending ciders you need to try.

99 Bottles is a highly opinionated wine guide from one of the country’s most celebrated—and unorthodox—sommeliers and winemakers. 
  
In this entertaining, informative, and thoroughly unconventional wine guide, award-winning sommelier, winemaker, and wine educator André Hueston Mack presents readers with the 99 bottles that have most impacted his life. Instead of just pairing wines with foods, Mack pairs practical information with personal stories, offering up recommendations alongside reflections on being one of the only African Americans to ever work at the top level of the American wine industry. 
  
The 99 bottles range from highly accessible commercial wines to the most rarefied Bordeaux on the wine list at The French Laundry, and each bottle offers readers something to learn about wine. This window into Mack’s life combines a maverick’s perspective on the wine industry with an insider’s advice on navigating wine lists, purchasing wine, and drinking more diverse and interesting selections at home. 99 Bottles is a one-of-a-kind exploration of wine culture today from a true trailblazer.
