Summary

A surprising and satisfying collection of over eighty recipes by Hollywood caterer and food writer Gwen Kenneally that tantalizes with sweet and savory curiositiesRecipes include Strawberry Salsa, Jalapeño Cornbread, Peach Pecan Chicken, Sweet Potato Salad, and Green Tea and Chocolate Truffles. The notion of sweet and savory isn’t new—after all, a popular chocolate candy has been betrothed to peanut butter for years. And a century ago, frugal cooks mixed up leftovers with whatever they found in their kitchens, often resulting in culinary discoveries such as sauerkraut mixed in cake batter made a moister cake, with a savory edge.Now, like never before, the savory and sweet combo is taking the food world by storm. The saltier, the brinier, the sweeter, the stickier . . . the better. The culinary landscape has become a place of art, adventure, and a bit of science with flavors taking on bold identities, mandating that alternating flavors complement each other.Gwen’s high-profile clientele expects her to keep up with trends as well as pave the way. She is known for blending contemporary creativity with family recipes, comfort foods, and diversity in her menu planning. In this, her first cookbook, she shares recipes that are hits at Hollywood affairs, political fund-raisers, and family gatherings. Her recipes are exciting and accessible, and intriguing enough for the accomplished cook, though not intimidating for the novice chef.Artfully illustrated by New York designer Alexandra Conn, Sweet and Savory Cookbook is a wonderful addition to the cookbook collection of the forward-thinking, food-loving kitchen.

    Do you want to start using herbal remedies but don’t know where to begin? This comprehensive guide will teach you everything you need to know about herbalism, from the benefits of using natural remedies to how to make your herbal preparations at home. 
For centuries, humans have been using herbal remedies to treat a wide variety of ailments. These natural plant-based medicines contain active compounds that can reduce inflammation, ease pain, and promote healing. One of the most well-known types of herbal remedies is tea, made from leaves and flowers steeped in hot water for several minutes to extract their properties. 
Other popular herbs used for medicinal purposes include ginger, turmeric, and peppermint, all of which are known for their anti- inflammatory effects as well as their ability to settle nausea or upset stomachs. Whether you’re looking for relief from cold symptoms or an extra boost of energy, there’s no doubt that herbal remedies can be highly effective at improving your health and well-being. 
While herbal remedies are generally safe for most people to use, it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare professional before using them, especially if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any other medications. Some herbs can interact with certain medications, so it’s always best to err on the side of caution.

    Sally Grainger has gathered, in one convenient volume, her modern interpretations of 64 of the recipes in the original text. This is not 'recipes inspired by the old Romans' but rather a serious effort to convert the extremely gnomic instructions in the Latin into something that can be reproduced in the modern kitchen which actually gives some idea of what the Romans might have eaten. Sally Grainger, therefore, has taken great pains to suggest means of replicating the particular Roman taste for fermented fish sauce. It may sound unpleasant, but actually is not too far removed from the fish sauces of the Far East and any reproduction of Roman cookery must depend on getting this particular aspect right.
