 | Jewish Cooking In America (Knopf Cooks American)
Brand: Knopf
Here is a rich tapestry of more than three centuries of Jewish cooking in America. In this book Joan Nathan gathers together more than 300 kosher recipes, old and new. They come from both Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jews who came and settled all over America, bringing with them a wide variety of regional flavors, changing and adapting their traditional dishes according to what was available in the new country.<br><br>What makes Jewish cooking unique is the ancient dietary laws that govern the selection, preparation, and consumption of food by observant Jews. Food plays a major part in rituals, past and present, binding family and community. It is this theme that informs every page of Joan Nathan's warm and lively text.<br><br>Every dish has a story--from the <i>cholents</i> (the long-cooked rich meat stews) and <i>kugels</i> (vegetable and noodle puddings) prepared in advance for the Sabbath to the potato latkes (served with maple syrup in Vermont and goat cheese in California) and gefilte fish (made with whitefish in the Midwest, salmon in the Northwest, haddock in New England, and shad in Maryland). Joan Nathan tells us how lox and bagels and Lindy's cheesecake became household words and how American products like Crisco, cream cheese, junket, and Jell-O changed forever the way Jewish women cook.<br><br>The recipes and stories come from every part of the U.S.A. They are seasoned with Syrian, Moroccan, Greek, German, Polish, Georgian, and Alsatian flavors, and they represent traditional foods tailored for today's tastes as well as some of the <i>nouvelle</i> creations of Jewish chefs from New York to Tuscany. | *$9.42 |

 | Curry: A Tale of Cooks and Conquerors
Brand: Oxford University Press, USA
Curry serves up a delectable history of Indian cuisine, ranging from the imperial kitchen of the Mughal invader Babur to the smoky cookhouse of the British Raj.<br> In this fascinating volume, the first authoritative history of Indian food, Lizzie Collingham reveals that almost every well-known Indian dish is the product of a long history of invasion and the fusion of different food traditions. We see how, with the arrival of Portuguese explorers and the Mughal horde, the cooking styles and ingredients of central Asia, Persia, and Europe came to the subcontinent, where over the next four centuries they mixed with traditional Indian food to produce the popular cuisine that we know today. Portuguese spice merchants, for example, introduced vinegar marinades and the British contributed their passion for roast meat. When these new ingredients were mixed with native spices such as cardamom and black pepper, they gave birth to such popular dishes as biryani, jalfrezi, and vindaloo. In fact, vindaloo is an adaptation of the Portuguese dish "carne de vinho e alhos-"-the name "vindaloo" a garbled pronunciation of "vinho e alhos"--and even "curry" comes from the Portuguese pronunciation of an Indian word. Finally, Collingham describes how Indian food has spread around the world, from the curry houses of London to the railway stands of Tokyo, where "karee raisu" (curry rice) is a favorite Japanese comfort food. We even visit Madras Mahal, the first Kosher Indian restaurant, in Manhattan.<br> Richly spiced with colorful anecdotes and curious historical facts, and attractively designed with 34 illustrations, 5 maps, and numerous recipes, Curry is vivid, entertaining, and delicious--a feast for food lovers everywhere. | *$9.33 |

 | Hot Dog: A Global History (Edible)
Brand: Reaktion Books
<DIV><DIV><DIV>Char-grilled or boiled? Sauerkraut or chili? Mustard or ketchup? Vienna Beef or Sabrett? Only these questions could be raised about one of the worldâs favorite backyard, picnic, ballgame, and street foodsâthe hotdog. Though nearly two billion hot dogs are consumed by Americans annually in the month of July alone, there is absolutely no consensus on which is the right way to serve up a hotdog. In <I>Hot Dog,</I> well known food historian Bruce Kraig recounts the history of this popular âtube steakâ from the origin of the sausage 20,000 years ago to its central place in American culture today. <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 200%">Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Kraig discusses the many brands, including Hebrew National, Pearl, Sabrett, and Vienna Beef, and the regional variations that go along with themâlike kosher-style New York dogs loaded with mustard and sauerkraut, New England dogs with Boston Baked Beans, and fully-loaded Chicago style hotdogs, complete with mustard, onion, relish, sport peppers, a dill pickle spear, a dash of celery salt, and tomato slices (but never, ever ketchup). <I>Hot Dog </I>covers the other international sausages, like bologna and bockwurst, as well, and explores some of the apocryphal tales of the hotdog in historyâlike the origin of its name and whether Queen Elizabeth II was truly served hotdogs on a visit to the White House.</P>Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Packed with tasty facts and recipes, <I>Hot Dog </I>reveals the rich history and passionate opinions about this seemingly ordinary food.</DIV> | *$9.32 |

 | Eating for IBS: 175 Delicious, Nutritious, Low-Fat, Low-Residue Recipes to Stabilize the Touchiest Tummy
Brand: Da Capo Press
If you are one of the millions of people suffering from IBS, immediate help is finally at hand. Contrary to what many believe, eating for IBS does not mean deprivation, never going to restaurants, boring food, or a limited and therefore unhealthy diet. It does mean learning to eat safely by realizing how different foods physically affect the GI tract, and how these foods can prevent or trigger IBS. For example: <P>* There are <i>two kinds of fiber</i>...one soothes the colon but the other can cause severe attacks <P>* Dairy is a common trigger...even in people who are not lactose intolerant <P>* Peppermint, chamomile, and fennel can prevent attacks better than some prescription drugs <P>* Bland foods are <i>not</i> automatically safe foods <P>In <i>Eating for IBS</i>, Heather Van Vorous, who has suffered from IBS for over 20 years and gradually learned to control her symptoms through dietary modifications, offers sympathetic suggestions tailored specifically to the needs of IBS sufferers that are based on first-hand experience as well as nutritional research. She provides a comprehensive overview of IBS, explicit eating and cooking strategies, travel and restaurant advice, daily menus, supermarket ideas, and 175 gourmet recipes. IBS sufferers will be thrilled to discover that they can enjoy traditional homestyle cooking, ethnic foods, rich desserts, snacks, and party foodsâand donât have to cook unusual or special meals for themselves while their families follow a "normal" diet. <i>Eating for IBS</i> will forever revolutionize the way people with IBS eatâand live. | *$9.30 |
