About this ebook
The tradition of stew-making is as old as the invention of the first pot, so it’s only natural that a piping-hot, rib-sticking stew is comforting in a very primal sort of way. In The Best Stews in the World, renowned cooking teacher Cliff Wright takes us on a culinary voyage around the world to discover the favorite comfort foods of nearly fifty countries. These three hundred recipes are the real deal: classic home food complete with culinary pedigrees. Here you can find authentic versions of:
*Swedish Meatball Stew *Ossobuco alla Milanese *African Groundnut Stew *Irish Stew *Cuban Ropa Vieja *Coq au Vin *Waterzooi *Maine Lobster Stew *Spicy Indian Vegetable Stew *Catalonian Lentil Stew *Finnish Salmon Stew *and many more
The Best Stews in the World is organized by each recipe’s predominant ingredient: beef; veal; pork; lamb; poultry, goat, and rabbit; mixed meats; fish and shellfish; vegetables; and mixed meats. The recipes are easy to follow, the techniques are straightforward, the narrative is rich with the history and tradition of each stew, and, most important, the rewards are plentiful and satisfying.
“Impressive . . . Lengthy headnotes provide culinary history and other background, and numerous boxes explore such topics as ‘What’s a Cardoon?’ or ‘The Cuisine of the Poor.’” —Library Journal
“A cookbook that doesn’t put on airs.” —Baltimore Sun
