  “A book you’ll use every day. . . . Think of these sauces as a culinary bag of tricks. I do.” —Dorie Greenspan, James Beard Award winner and New York Times–bestselling author of Around My French Table   Mastering sauces can take your cooking to a whole new level. Award-winning food writer Martha Holmberg was trained at La Varenne, and in Modern Sauces she tackles this sometimes-intimidating subject—using clear, short bites of information and dozens of process photographs to deliver the skill of great sauce-making to every kind of cook, including beginners.   More than 100 recipes for sauces range from standards such as béarnaise, hollandaise, and marinara to modern riffs including maple-rum sabayon, caramelized onion coulis, and coconut-curry spiked chocolate sauce. An additional fifty-five recipes use the sauces to their greatest advantage, beautifying pasta, complementing meat or fish, or elevating a cake to brilliant. Organized by ingredient and method, Modern Sauces is both an inspiration and a timeless reference on kitchen technique.   “In a clear and encouraging voice, she explains how to season, store, portion, and improvise on classic sauces . . . Easily Holmberg’s best cookbook to date, this uses delicious recipes—like the outstanding Rice Pudding with Cardamom Meringues, Lime Crème Anglaise, and Chunky Mixed-Berry Coulis—to put essential skills in context.” —Library Journal

  Are you ready to eat the same foods you’ve always enjoyed, and permanently lose some extra weight? 
  Intermittent fasting is a new take on a classic concept: your body was designed to go for short periods of time without food, and then eat what you want when it’s available. Unfortunately, our bodies are programmed to eat when food is available, and they haven’t caught up to the era we live in where food is always available. 
  The best part of intermittent fasting is that you don’t need to count your macros, buy fancy equipment, or any kind of supplements. You just need to arm yourself with knowledge about how your body works when it’s fasting, versus when it’s overly full. 
  Intermittent Fasting for Women is an excellent guide that will allow you to:
   
  
  
  Start intermittent fasting right away
  Lose the extra weight and keep if off
  Keep eating the foods you love
  Learn to time your eating to maximize your health
  
   
  Naomi Atwood & Margaret Wolf have created an essential beginners guide to intermittent fasting designed specifically for women. The concept has nothing to do with starving yourself, and people of any age can instantly reap the benefits.
   
  When you’re ready to embrace a whole new version of your body without any radical changes to your diet, you need to buy this book and start intermittent fasting right now!

  AMISH CANNING AND PRESERVING...

  Josephine Fisher

  From the outside looking in, the Amish appear to be simple people. They eschew any modern conveniences in favor of old-fashioned living. This lifestyle means no motorized vehicles, electronics, or most forms of technology developed after the 19th century. The rejection of advances in the rest of society sometimes includes ideals, viewpoints, practices, and programs developed as the rest of the world evolved. Since most Amish communities are located in the United States, they occasionally conflict with the state and federal governments.  
  When their traditions clash with the official laws and regulations in their jurisdiction, concessions are made on both sides. The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agreed in 1961 that the Amish are exempt from paying taxes to the Federal Social Security program, and was codified by a law passed in 1965. Conversely, despite their insular nature, they are still subject to the United States criminal justice system. They will cooperate with local and federal law enforcement agencies when necessary, despite their preference for using religious bodies to handle legal conflicts.  
  Much of the motivation behind the Amish maintaining such insular communities stems from their difficult history at their inception.
