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.

My Egyptian Grandmother's Kitchen

My Egyptian Grandmother's Kitchen: Traditional Dishes Sweet and Savory Magda Mehdawy Price: LE 150

Book Summary

In this beautifully illustrated volume, Magda Mehdawy has gathered in one book the most complete collection of Egyptian recipes ever assembled. Drawing on the traditional recipes she learned from her grandmother and other members of her generation, Mehdawy offers a surprising range of sumptuous recipes and unusual flavors that are part of Egypt's millennia-long cultural heritage. She also reveals the historical depth of the national cuisine, beginning with a section on food and wine-making techniques used by the ancient Egyptians. For readers interested in more recent traditions, Mehdawy provides lists of typical menus served on Islamic holidays and feasts, and a fascinating overview of traditional beliefs regarding vegetables and spices. While covering regional dishes from all over Egypt, Mehdawy emphasizes the cuisine of her native Mediterranean city of Alexandria, providing a wide selection of seafood dishes, such as baked sardines and shrimp kufta with rice. Grouped by food categories - including Broths and Soups, Stuffed Vegetables, Poultry, Pickles, Jams, and Desserts - the book helpfully lists detailed health information as well as practical advice on shopping for the best-quality ingredients, and where to find them. Even chefs already familiar with Egyptian cuisine will find new dishes here. With copious illustrations in full color throughout, this compendium is a great introduction to the rich flavor and variety of the traditional Egyptian kitchen.
