Endangered Recipes: Too Good to Be Forgotten (Hardcover)
by Lari Robling (Author), Mark Thomas (Photographer)
List Price: $30.00
Great recipes are family treasures and America's culinary legacy. But what should be enduring heirlooms are easily lost-gone out of fashion, or locked up in one cook's recipe box. Endangered Recipes showcases dishes in danger of extinction-homey favorites, the kind of food eaten on the summer porch, at the neighbors' house, or with your grandparents.
Lari Robling has tapped into America's food memory bank to unearth almost-forgotten classics such as Welsh Rarebit, Green Goddess Dressing, and Nashville House Fried Biscuits with Homemade Apple Butter. The recipes she's collected reflect the extraordinary range of American cooking, from Parker House Rolls to Crispy Fried Chicken to Homemade Banana Pudding.
Endangered Recipes also contains Robling's own cooking memories and some of the great food stories she's encountered, as well as sidebars that spotlight the people who are "recipe rescuers." The author also includes a practical guide to preserving your own family's food legacy-its recipes and its stories. Now is the perfect time to begin saving-and savoring-our nearly forgotten dishes.
