The New York times heritage cook book por Jean Hewitt
Recipes are organized by region in the USA. As tastes differ, it is a good resource to dip your toe into when planning a trip or just for fun. Regions are Notheast, South, Midwest, Mountain/Northern Plains, Southwest, and Northwest.
I got this book for free when joining a cook book club in early 70s when I was trying to learn how to cook. The chicken Dijonnaise has been a family favorite for many years. Now it's the only cookbook I can read without my glasses--an added benefit I didn't count on back then.
Grrr. This "Meatless" cookbook has well over 100 pages of seafood and/or chicken recipes.
My favorite is the "Potato and Cheese Curry". It uses curry powder (and I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to Indian cooking) but it is a surprisingly good dish.
I end up getting so disgusted every time I look through the book, though, since there are so many chicken and seafood recipes for something that claims to be "meatless". In the appetizer section alone there are 31 recipes that I would consider vegetarian (but not vegan) and there are 21 with seafood or chicken. There's also a seafood chapter that's almost 50 pages and a chicken chapter that's more than 50 pages. The other chapters seem to have a similar slant as the appetizer one does.
The author is listed as being the Food Editor of Family Circle magazine which probably explains the slant of the book. (Oh, my, whatever will you do without meat?!?!? Here's a way to take a small baby step away from eating red meat at every meal.)… (más)
