Internet Book Watch - Internet Book Watch

Over a hundred sweet treats for diabetics use no sugar or fructose, relying on recommended sugar substitutes instead. An introduction on the pros and cons of various 'sugar substitutes' would have been nice; many of the recipes call for this generic substitute without mentioning brand names - or the fact that sucrose turns bitter under heat. Still, the recipes provide a range of options and with a little extra research, diabetics will find them easy to work with.

Great Southern Wild Game Cookbook or Mollie Katzens Vegetable Heaven

Great Southern Wild Game Cookbook

Author: Sam Goolsby

Hunter, outdoor writer, and wild game expert Sam Goolsby, for more than a decade president of one of the South's most successful hunting lodges, contends that virtually any wild game can be cooked, served, and savored by almost anyone. In this comprehensive collection of time-proven recipes, he shows how.

Included are step-by-step instructions for preparing a wide variety of tasty dishes featuring: venison, squirrel, rabbit, possum, coon, alligator, bear, armadillo, rattlesnake, duck, goose, wild turkey, quail, pheasant, dove, grouse, fish, seafood.

Uneasy about the flavor or texture of some of the more exotic species of wild game? Don't be. The author decisively puts to rest many of the myths concerning the taste of meat from the hunt, showing how, with the proper preparation, food such as venison can be as appealing to the taste buds as traditional meat dishes.

Mollie Katzen's Vegetable Heaven

Author: Mollie Katzen

In this major new cookbook, the beloved author and illustrator of the classic Moosewood Cookbook (one of the top ten best-selling cookbooks of all time) presents a sumptuously illustrated collection of over 200 irresistible and surprising recipes. This long-awaited and beautiful new work by one of America's favorite cookbook writers is the companion volume to the new 26-part public television series, Mollie Katzen's Cooking Show: Vegetable Heaven. Here she weaves together culinary styles from around the world: appetizers like Persian Eggplant Dip and Jamaican Salsa-Salad; soups ranging from Big, Bold Noodle to Tunisian Tomato; hearty main-course features and a mix-and-match section of "Side-by-Side Dishes," including grains and vegetables. This book also features unusual pasta recipes, condiments, and a wonderful assortment of desserts like Cherry Upside-Down Gingerbread and Pineapple Pomegranita. Gracing the pages are over 50 of Katzen's luminous paintings, richly evocative of the pleasures of cooking and eating.

Publishers Weekly

A tie-in to a forthcoming cooking series on public television, this collection from the author of The Enchanted Broccoli Forest and Still Life with Menu offers a broad range of fairly simple and often imaginative vegetarian dishes. Such dishes as Onion-Wilted Spinach Salad with Cumin, Avocado and Apple or Black-eyed Pea and Squash Soup with Shiitake Mushrooms will add spark to any meal. Sizzling Long Beans, stir-fried with garlic and chiles, and Coconut Rice, with ginger, chiles and lime, will likely delight any home cook looking for side dish variations. Mushroom-Barley "Risotto" and Sweet Potatoes and Spinach in Spiced Orange Sauce also deliver on the subtitle's promise of unexpected fare. Seductive desserts (Mexican Chocolate Cake with Mocha Butterceam; Blueberry-Lemon Mousse Pie) gleefully disregard dietary prudence. Remembering that great veggie pickings are slim in winter months, Katzen includes such dishes as Root Vegetable Soup and Tuscan Bean and Pasta Stew (featuring canned and frozen ingredients). Occasionally overblown prose diminishes the effect of Katzen's personable style, as when Green Beans and Tofu in Crunchy Thai Peanut Sauce is described as "a virtual explosion of flavor and texture!" But overall this is a fresh, respectable collection worthy of a place on the bookshelf of any cook, vegetarian or carnivorous. $250,000 ad/promo; QPB main selection; author tour. (Oct.)

Garlic and Oil: Politics and Food in Italy

Author: Carol F Helstosky

Pasta, cappuccino, olive oil--Italian food is a favorite in our cafes, restaurants and homes. But what is the history of Italian cuisine? And where do we get our notions about Italian food?

Literary Feast: Recipes and Writings by American Women Authors from History

Author: Yvonne Schofer

There was sweet, crisp lettuce and tender radishes in scarlet coats, there were green peas, and beans, and beets, and onions, and potatoes, with dessert of wild gooseberries and plums, which latter were furnished gratis by the gracious mother in the woods nearby. Appetizing food is not the sole foundation of human happiness and progress, but it is surely one of the pillars thereof. The Squatter Sovereign (1883), Mary A. Humphrey

From Louisa May Alcott to Kate Douglas Wiggin, early American writers found time to describe and prepare sumptuous dishes still cook-worthy today. Beginning with Bouillon for Parties and Germans (a dance reel, not a people!) and ending Sauce aux Marrons, a Creole chestnut sauce served over broiled turkey chicks, A Literary Feast presents the soup-to-nuts of eating in America more than a century ago.

This unique cookbook provides an abundance of recipes from the nineteenth century, along with excerpts from American literature written by women, who were, after all, the primary cooks of the time, illustrating how food and eating fit into domestic life. Together they provide an unusual-and entertaining-snapshot into the world of an earlier era.

What People Are Saying

Monique Jamet Hooker
What a great pleasure it is to trace culinary dishes to their source and place in history. (Monique Jamet Hooker, author, Cooking with Seasons: A Year in My Kitchen)

Barbara Haber
Not only a delightful cookbook with charming observations about food, A Literary Feast is a valuable contribution to both women's history and food studies. The book entertains as well as offers evidence of the important connections between women and food. Until recently, that relationship has been trivialized and misunderstood, but with growing numbers of books on the subject appearing, a new period of understanding has finally arrived. A Literary Feast will be a joy to cooks with an interest in history and literature and great resource for researchers who continue this investigation. (author of From Hardtack to Home Fries: An Uncommon History of American Cooks and Meals)

Terese Allen
For people who read cookbooks like novels, A Literary Feast offers the best of both worlds-food and fiction from the 19th century. I can't think of a more enjoyable way to learn about the culture of a by-gone era than by juxtaposing its literary lives with period recipes. (author of Wisconsin Hometown Flavors)

Monique Jamet Hooker
What a great pleasure it is to trace culinary dishes to their source and place in history.
