European Peasant Cookery

Elisabeth Luard

Sinopsis

Recipes reflecting the rich traditions of twenty-five countries, passed down through generations.   Peasant cookery offers healthy, real food—and is as relevant now as it was centuries ago. In this remarkable book, Elisabeth Luard sets out to record the principles of European cookery and to rediscover what has been lost in over-refinement. The recipes come from twenty-five countries, ranging from Ireland in the west to Romania in the east, Iceland in the north to Turkey in the south. This enormous compendium covers vegetable dishes; potato dishes; beans, lentils, polenta, and cornmeal; rice, pasta, and noodles; eggs, milk, and cheeses; fish, poultry, small game, pork, shepherd's meats; breads and yeast pastries; sweet dishes; preserves; and more.   Filled with an authenticity rooted in Elisabeth Luard’s years of living and cooking in Europe, these recipes are peppered with hundreds of fascinating anecdotes and little known facts about local history and folklore.

Keto Diet - Cure for Weight Loss...

Mark Sanders

Advanced health information for ketogenic dieters you cannot afford to miss out on! During the course of my life, I have found the ketogenic diet to be useful and insightful. But so many additional resources and medical facts are missing. This is one of the primary reasons why I have decided to enlighten listeners with specific pieces of knowledge about low-carb fasting and the use of certain foods. I have included chapters that address some of the following important questions: How do you track your progress when you are on a ketogenic diet? What are the consequences for cancer and other diseases?  Should your focus be on counting calories? Are all grains bad? And if not, which ones are and which ones are not? Is it advisable for children to participate in a ketogenic lifestyle? What are the effects of processed sugar? What causes inflammation in the human body, and how can it be prevented? Which benefits are there in intermittent fasting? Should one pay particular attention to certain ketogenic-friendly foods when going to a restaurant? These and other issues will be the core of this science-based, well-outlined audiobook about the ketogenic diet. It is my hope that you will learn as much as I have in my time period of research and that you will be encouraged and educated about making more intelligent decisions related to your nutritional behavior. Add this audiobook to your cart. You will not regret it.

The Kamado Grill Cookbook -...

Fred Thompson

“A great introduction to the kamado grill, with excellent recipes not just for grilling, smoking, and smoke-roasting but also for baking and braising.” —Chris Schlesinger, coauthor of The Thrill of the Grill With its distinctive egg or oval shape, heat-insulating ceramics, and airtight seal, the kamado is a smoker’s dream, able to maintain low and slow temperatures for up to twelve hours with no additional charcoal needed. It’s the “set it and forget it” of smokers! In addition to smoking, grillmaster Fred Thompson has discovered that the kamado is a wonderful all-round grill. Its ability to maintain precise temperatures means it can take on most any task—grilling, roasting, braising, steaming, even baking—guaranteeing a succulent result infused with delicious smoke flavor. The Kamado Grill Cookbook contains 193 lip-smackin’-good recipes for everything from brisket and pork shoulder to seafood, poultry, lamb, vegetables, and more. Explore the reaches of what the kamado can do: smoke your own bacon and sausage; fire it up for Bourbon-Glazed Bone-in Ribeye Steaks; feed friends and family with an Old-Fashioned Oyster Roast; or end a meal with a kamado-baked Pig-Picking Fudge Cake. Fred will get you started on the right track with Kamado Basics, a primer chapter on everything you need to know to get the very best results from your kamado grill. “Fred Thompson thinks like a flame and always knows what every ingredient wants . . . and why.” —Peter Kaminsky, coauthor of Mallmann on Fire

Fermented Foods for Health - Use...

Deirdre Rawlings

“[M]ore than a mere cookbook . . . a solid volume of science and cookery that offers a wealth of information for those looking to improve their health.” —Library Journal 
 
Fermented foods have shown to be beneficial for a number of health conditions including candida overgrowth, IBS and digestive difficulties, sugar/carb cravings, and other inflammatory disorders. What’s more, science is starting to show that our modern lifestyle of completely eschewing bacteria via pasteurized foods, hand sanitizers, disinfectants, and antibiotics is actually making us more, not less, susceptible to illness and allergies. Regular inclusion of fermented foods in the diet naturally combats bad bacteria and strengthens the immune system. Fermented Foods for Health includes meal plans of fermented foods for addressing specific ailments and repairing the metabolism. Seventy-five delicious recipes show readers how to ferment everything from meats to vegetables, fruits, and dairy—and how to utilize each of them for specific health benefits such as balancing the body’s PH, increasing enzyme production, and strengthening immunity.
