Grilling or Australias Liquid Gold

Grilling

Author: Louise Pickford

For many of us, grilling outdoors has become our favorite way to cook, not only for the flavor of the food, but also because it's a very enjoyable way to entertain. Here, Sydney-based author Louise Pickford provides a delicious selection of easy recipes to help you make the most of your barbecue. Start with Little Dishes to whet the appetite before the big grill -- recipes like Fig, Goat Cheese, and Prosciutto Skewers, and Pepper 'n' Spice Chicken. Every outdoor eating experience needs good Salads & Sides -- and Louise provides great ideas such as Zucchini, Feta, and Mint Salad, Garlic Bread Skewers, and Grilled Corn on the Cob. Fish and Seafood are perfect for the barbecue, try Hot-Smoked Creole Salmon or Salt-Crusted Shrimp. Meat and Poultry are traditional grilling fare and Louise has come up with the best -- Delmonico Steak with Anchovy Butter, Smoky Spareribs and, everyone's favorite, the perfect Top Dog. The barbecue is good for Sweet Things, too -- try Grilled Figs with Almond Mascarpone Cream, Grilled Fruit Packages, and the campfire favorite, S'mores.

Latino Food Culture

Author: Zilkia Janer

Latino cuisine has always been a part of American foodways, but the recent growth of a diverse Latino population in the form of documented and undocumented immigrants, refugees, and exiles has given rise to a pan-Latino food phenomenon. These various food cultures in the United States are expertly overviewed here together in depth for the first time. Many Mexican American, Cuban American, Puerto Ricans, Dominican American, and Central and South American communities in the United States are considered transnational because they actively participate in the economy, politics, and culture of both the United States and their countries of origin. The pan-Latino food culture that is emerging in the United States is also a transnational phenomenon that constantly nurtures and is nurtured by national and regional cuisines. They all combine in kaleidoscopic ways their shared gastronomic wealth of Spanish and Amerindian cuisines with different African, European and Asian culinary traditions. This book discusses the ongoing development of Latino food culture, giving special attention to how Latinos are adapting and transforming Latin American and international elements to create one of the most vibrant cuisines today. This is essential reading for crucial cultural insight into Latinos from all backgrounds. Readers will learn about the diverse elements of an evolving pan-Latino food culture-the history of the various groups and their foodstuffs, cooking, meals and eating habits, special occasions, and diet and health. Representative recipes and photos are interspersed in the essays. A chronology, glossary, resource guide, and bibliography make this a one-stop resource for every library.
