Ketogenic Cooking

Maris White

Summary

In addition to 170 quick, easy, and delicious ketogenic recipes, which you’ll find in chapters 5 through 15 and in a bonus section on smoking, this book is packed with lots of handy features to help you along your keto journey.
If you’re new to keto, begin by reading the introduction to the ketogenic diet, which starts on here . Keep in mind, though, that this is a cookbook; if you’re looking for more in-depth information about the science behind keto and how to adapt it to meet your individual needs, turn to here in the Resources section for a list of other books that may prove helpful.

Part 1: The Ketogenic Kitchen
Part 1 is full of handy information and tips for keto cooks—both those who love to spend time in the kitchen and those who would rather be doing anything but cooking. Chapter 1 gives you the lowdown on key keto ingredients, including healthy fats and natural sweeteners, and walks you through stocking your fridge, freezer, and pantry with the right foods. In chapter 2, you’ll find a list of the kitchen equipment I consider most essential, as well as some handy extras. Chapter 3 will help you navigate the world of eating keto by offering tips on saving time in the kitchen, planning ahead to ensure your success, and eating out at restaurants.
I know that even non-ketogenic meal planning can be tricky for a lot of people. To help you get started with keto, or to get back on track if you’ve hit some bumps, I’ve included meal plans in chapter 4: some for weight loss and healing and some for maintenance. The seven-day plans have corresponding shopping lists that make it easy to pick up everything you need for a successful week of healthy eating. If you’re looking for dairy-free meals, two of the thirty-day plans are dairy-free.
Part 2: Easy Ketogenic Recipes
To help you navigate the recipes in this book, I have included a number of helpful features.

The Irish Pub Cookbook

Margaret M. Johnson

More than seventy amazing Irish pub recipes, from the classic favorites you love to the contemporary specialties sure to delight.

Talk about the luck of the Irish! One of the most beloved of Irish institutions (there are more than one thousand in Dublin alone), the traditional pub has served generations as the venue for local gossip, sporting news, a ceilidh or two, literary soirees, real estate deals, political debates, revolutionary plots, and, lest we forget, for knocking back a pint of Guinness or a “ball of malt.” The food’s not bad either—as The Irish Pub Cookbook so deliciously demonstrates. It’s a celebration of more than seventy pub classics: thick soups and stews; savory tarts and meaty pies; big bowls of salad (times change!); and desserts of the seconds-are-always-appropriate variety. There’s shepherd’s pie, fish and chips, seafood chowder, and whiskey bread pudding for those with a taste for the quintessential. Contemporary specialties such as Bacon, Blue Cheese, and Courgette Soup; Salmon Cakes with Dill and Wine Sauce; Braised Lambshanks with Red Currants; and White Chocolate Terrine spotlight modern Irish cooking’s richly deserved acclaim. Complete with pub photos, history, and lore, nobody leaves hungry when The Irish Pub Cookbook is in the kitchen.

Praise for The Irish Pub Cookbook

“In The Irish Heritage Cookbook, Johnson continues on her mission to inform Americans that contemporary Irish cooking means not just a rustic, stick-to-your-ribs Irish Stew with Brown Soda Bread, but also Green Tomato Tarte Tatin, as original and sophisticated as one found anywhere in Europe. The book reads like a tourist itinerary for hungry pub crawlers . . . and shares history on favorite pubs and their famous and infamous patrons and proprietors. Leigh Beish’s full-page photos deliver elegant interpretations of humble pub grub like Bacon and Cabbage, and Ploughman’s Lunch.” —Publishers Weekly
