  Recipes for the most popular dishes from the collection of “the high priest of hot stuff,” the author of Chili Peppers and The Founding Foodies (Sam Gugino, James Beard Award-winning food journalist). For the past three decades, Dave DeWitt has devoted his life and career to chile peppers and fiery foods, and he publishes the huge Fiery Foods & Barbecue Central (fiery-foods.com), which includes hundreds of articles and thousands of recipes. This new book is composed of the very best dishes from DeWitt’s collection of chile pepper-laden recipes from around the world that he’s acquired on his travels, from colleagues, and by researching authentic, obscure, and out-of-print cookbooks. The book is loaded with a vast array of hot and spicy favorites, including a huge variety of soups, stews, chilis, and gumbos; a broad selection of barbecue dishes for the grill; and a lengthy list of meatless entrees and vegetable options. Included are not just hundreds of spicy main dishes, but also a surprising array of zesty beverages, desserts, and breakfasts. In some chapters in this book, the recipes are grouped by type of recipe; in the others, they are organized in the order of chile peppers’ spread around the globe: South and Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean, U.S.A., Europe, the Mediterranean and Middle East, Africa, the Indian subcontinent, and Asia and the Pacific. The book is truly the very best the world has to offer in terms of great spicy foods “When it comes to hellfire, no one can turn up the heat like Dave DeWitt.” —Steven Raichlen, author of Project Smoke

  My Usual Table - A Life in...

  Colman Andrews

  • 0

  A vivid memoir and an “appealing” love letter to great restaurants by a James Beard Award winner and founding editor of Saveur (Los Angeles Times). 
   
  For Colman Andrews, restaurants have been his playground, his theater, his university, his church, his refuge. The establishments he has loved have not only influenced culinary trends at home and abroad, but represent the changing history and culture of food in America and Western Europe. From his usual table, he has watched the growth of Nouvelle Cuisine and fusion cuisine; the organic and locavore movements; nose-to-tail eating; and so-called “molecular gastronomy.” 
   
  In My Usual Table, Andrews interweaves his own story—from growing up in the sunset years of Hollywood’s golden age and dining at Chasen’s and Trader Vic’s to traveling the world in pursuit of great food—with tales of the restaurants, chefs, and restaurateurs who are emblematic of the revolutions great and small that have forever changed the way we eat, cook, and think about food. 
   
  “In the hands of a less adept writer, Andrews’ narratives of movie stars cavorting in their favorite restaurant haunts or dining at his parents’ house might seem mere name-dropping, but his respect and affection for these celebrities make for enjoyable storytelling.” —Booklist 
   
  “A compelling writer . . . his descriptions of restaurants past will lead readers who chronicle their own days in Instagrammed meals on an adventure in armchair time travel.” —San Francisco Chronicle

  Cookbook Politics

  Cookbooks are not political in conventional ways. They neither proclaim, as do manifestos, nor do they forbid, as do laws. They do not command agreement, as do arguments, and their stipulations often lack specificity—cook "until browned." Yet, as repositories of human taste, cookbooks transmit specific blends of flavor, texture, and nutrition across space and time. Cookbooks both form and reflect who we are.Cookbook Politics argues that cookbooks highlight aspects of our lives we rarely recognize as political—taste, production, domesticity, collectivity, and imagination—and considers the ways in which cookbooks have or do politics, from the most overt to the most subtle. Cookbooks turn regional diversity into national unity, as Pellegrino Artusi's Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Eating Well did for Italy in 1891. Politically affiliated organizations compile and sell cookbooks—for example, the early United Nations published The World's Favorite Recipes. From the First Baptist Church of Midland, Tennessee's community cookbook, to Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, to the Italian Futurists' proto-fascist guide to food preparation, Kennan Ferguson demonstrates how cookbooks mark desires and reveal social commitments: your table becomes a representation of who you are.

  Dishes made with mindfulness that reflect a “love of Asian flavors and current tastes for lighter vegetarian meals” from the legendary Buddhist monastery (Edible Monterey Bay).   In Tassajara: Dinner & Desserts, readers will not only find recipes filled with the flavor of Zen practice but also stories from past guest cooks, such as Deborah Madison, Ed Brown, Gloria Lee, and many others, whose calm and peaceful minds were truly tested behind the doors of the Tassajara kitchen, whose monastic kitchen differs from a normal restaurant kitchen in that the activity of preparing the food is understood to be spiritual practice. The Tassajara Zen Mountain Center teaches that every aspect of one’s day can be lived with mindfulness—even food preparations and choices of what we eat.   A few of the fifty recipes include:   Frittata with Caramelized Onions, Goat Cheese, and SageCoconut Curry with Mixed VegetablesTofu NeatballsSweet Tapioca Soup with HoneydewRicotta Chevre with Ginger Berry Compote   “The book includes lots of amusing parables from the kitchen and makes Kent the latest in a long lineage of cooks who’ve contributed to the Tassajara mystique.” —Edible Monterey Bay
