Summary

“Delectable recipes throughout [and] valuable hints on the fine art of being a good cook. A book to read—as well as to put to use.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)   Down-home Southern cooking is as much a part of Kentucky’s heritage as fine horses or bourbon whiskey. Known as a skilled hand in the kitchen, Marion Flexner compiled delicious and thoroughly tested recipes of Kentucky specialties, such as the Chocolate Almond Torte, Tombstone Pudding, and the Real Hot Brown, and “sippages” like the Apple Toddy and the Churchill Downs Mint Julep, in this classic cookbook that showcases the commonwealth’s best cuisine. Also included are colorful anecdotes that reflect a century of culinary Kentucky.   “Out of Kentucky Kitchens is in the small circle of definitive books on Southern cookery and history.”―John Egerton, author of Southern Food: At Home, on the Road, in History
Available since: 03/12/2010.

    Do you know your chia from your quinoa, your flax from your farro? Grains and seeds possess potent health-giving properties; they are packed with vitamins, dietary fibre and essential amino acids, and are known to support the immune system. But most people don't incorporate enough of these superfoods into their diets, and they are missing out - on both the health benefits and on the flavour! Amy Ruth Finegold has rid herself of the health problems that plagued her and discovered a whole new exciting way to eat by embracing these ancient grains - from amaranth to bulgur, buckwheat to teff. Get off to a good start with Breakfast options including Amaranth Porridge and Pineapple Bran Muffins. Soups include the fruity and tangy Summer Melon Soup with Tamarind, while Salads & Snacks also make a perfect light meal - try a Wheatberry Salad with Apples and Pecans. Satisfying Main Dishes to enjoy include Millet-stuffed Acorn Squash and Lamb Chops with a Warm Quinoa Apricot Salad. Seeds and grains work well in Sweet Treats, too; try Peach Pie with a Sunflower Seed Crust or treat yourself to Peanut Butter Quinoa Cookies.

    What are the real benefits of intermittent fasting? 
      
    The answer might surprise you, as it extends far beyond the biological aspects of allowing your intestines to reboot. There is a psychological factor that helps people lose weight faster too. Another aspect is clean eating, which is a concept that helps people boost their nutrition and become healthier in general. 
      
    Moreover, everyone is different and will, for this reason, experience the effects of intermittent fasting differently. 
      
    If you’re curious about these effects and other variables that make intermittent fasting such a promising method, then I encourage you to take a look at this book now.
