Sinopse

"Spice Grinding Days" explores the rich history and cultural significance of hand-ground spices, tracing their journey from cultivation to culinary use. It argues that the transition to commercially processed spices represents a loss of both cultural heritage and sensory experience. Did you know that hand grinding was once a deeply embedded social ritual? Or that many believe it unlocks essential oils and aromas more effectively than industrial methods? The book investigates the evolution of spice preparation techniques, the unique tools used, and the cultural impact on traditional meals.

The book uniquely blends historical analysis with culinary exploration, presenting a multi-faceted understanding of spice preparation. Examining regions such as India, Morocco, and the Caribbean, the book details iconic spice blends like garam masala, ras el hanout, and jerk seasoning.

Beginning with spice cultivation and trade routes, the book progresses to specific regional spice blends, concluding with practical guidance on sourcing quality spices and incorporating hand-grinding techniques into modern cooking. Exploring the sensory differences between hand-ground and commercially processed spices, "Spice Grinding Days" provides a valuable resource for food enthusiasts, culinary students, and anyone interested in the history of food. Drawing from historical cookbooks, trade documents, and interviews, it aims to foster a deeper appreciation for traditional spice preparation methods and their role in shaping our culinary landscape.

The Absinthe Forger - A True...

Evan Rail

Absinthe, an elixir made of alcohol and herbs, is a booming business. Yet it is still an underground culture, associated with mystery, romance, and bohemian lifestyles, in keeping with its popularity among the writers, artists, and other ne'er-do-wells. First produced in eighteenth century, the spirit, known as "the Green Fairy," was banned worldwide by 1914 before the bans were gradually overturned beginning in 2005, the year Switzerland relegalized absinthe. 
 
 
 
Enter a bon vivant who inveigles his way into the private Facebook groups where the modern absinthe demimonde converges and charms some of the best minds (and palates) in the beverage world into thinking that he was selling them precious vintage pre-ban bottles. How did he get away with it? 
 
 
 
The Absinthe Forger pieces together the forger's subterfuge and motivation. It shows how absinthe can transform a person—and even connect drinkers with a deeper, often hidden sense of self. Rail digs deep into the modern absinthe underground, whose members are still frantic to find the last remaining bottles of pre-ban absinthe, and he visits modern producers of the spirit, who have, in a generation, changed in status from daring criminal bootleggers to sought-after celebrities. The Absinthe Forger is a bizarre crime drama that will make you never look at wormwood in the same way again.
