For twenty-four years, in an odd and intimate warren of rooms, San Franciscans of every variety have come to the Zuni Café with high expectations and have rarely left disappointed. In The Zuni Café Cookbook, a book customers have been anticipating for years, chef and owner Judy Rodgers provides recipes for Zuni's most well-known dishes, ranging from the Zuni Roast Chicken to the Espresso Granita. But Zuni's appeal goes beyond recipes. Harold McGee concludes, "What makes The Zuni Café Cookbook a real treasure is the voice of Zuni's Judy Rodgers," whose book "repeatedly sheds a fresh and revealing light on ingredients and dishes, and even on the nature of cooking itself." Deborah Madison (Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone) says the introduction alone "should be required reading for every person who might cook something someday.

From Tom Colicchio, chef/co-owner of New York's acclaimed Gramercy Tavern, comes a book that profiles the food and philosophy of Craft, his unique restaurant in the heart of New York's Flatiron district, and winner of the 2002 James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant in America. From its food to its architecture and menu design, Craft has been celebrated for its courageous movement away from culinary theatrics and over-the-top presentations, back to the simple magic of great food. Realizing that his own culinary style had grown increasingly unembellished, and gambling that New York diners were experiencing that same kind of culinary fatigue (brought on by too much "fancy food"), Colicchio set out to prove that the finest food didn't have to be the most complicated. From its opening in March 2001, Craft offered diners simple, soulful dishes centered around single ingredients that went on to shake up many people's ideas of what "restaurant food" should be like. Craft of Cooking leads you through Colicchio's thought process in choosing raw materials-like what to look for in fresh fish, or how to choose the perfect mushroom-to show that good food is available to anyone with access to a good supermarket, farm stand, or gourmet grocery. The book also features "Day-in-the-Life-of-Craft" portraits, which offer a fascinating, behind-the-scenes glimpse at areas of the restaurant beyond the dining room. These segments allow the reader to peer into the fast-paced prep kitchen, to witness the high drama of reservations, and to get a taste of the humor and empathy necessary to serve New York's colorful visitors and foodies. And then there are the recipes. Craft of Cooking presents 140 recipes that range from the simplest dish of spring peas to roasted fish; from lush but effortless braises to complex brining and curing of meat for homemade charcuterie, included to give the reader a "fly-on-the-wall" experience of visiting the Craft kitchen for themselves. Dishes are divided-like t

An authentic culinary journey-part memoir, part cookbook-introducing readers to the people, places, and food of Umbria Veteran food critic Suzanne Carriero spent a year and a half in Umbria, and this is her intimate look at its ancient recipes, traditions, and the people who pass them on. Each of the book's eight chapters features local cooks, as their personal stories are as much a part of the cuisine's essence as are the crops they grow and the family dishes they prepare. Anecdotes, sidebars, and boxes are used throughout the book to further illustrate Umbrian life-from buying a rabbit in the country, to making torta di Pasqua for Easter, to reading the Italian wine label, and drinking cappuccino after lunch (a serious breach in tradition). With a food and wine glossary included as a reference for travelers, The Dog Who Ate the Truffle immerses the reader in the people, cuisine, and lifestyle that few are privileged to experience. Suzanne's colorful stories and authentic classic recipes make for an intimate and illustrious travel cookbook.

This small digital cook book contains Arnie's favorite recipes for 1) Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies 2) Delicious Apple Pie 3) "Nuts & Bolts" Canada's Holiday Treat 4) Orshanka Homestyle White Bread & Buns 5) Arnie's Sunnyvale Pancakes 6) Canadian Spaghetti 7A) Canadian Ice Tea 7B) California Ice Tea. These recipes come from several modern day sources and a little experimentation. All have been tested thoroughly with great success! Many of these recipes have their origins back in the early 1960's and have been passed down from generation to generation. While working on the 3rd Presidential Kids Art Album eBook, "4 Years Success! President Barack Obama & Family", I thought it would be fun to include a little bit of my own family baking history. With the 2009 Christmas holidays rapidly approaching these special family recipes were then shared with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, the Kremlin staff, President Barack Obama, his family, and the White House staff. The recipes were greatly appreciated by both the Kremlin (Russian Government) and the White House (American Government) as a gesture of peace and friendship at the holidays. When an American President now travels to Russia on a working visit, he can be sure that a fresh American style apple pie will be waiting for him upon his arrival! Enjoy these delicious family recipes that have been a staple of my life for over 40 years!
