Gran Cocina Latina: The Food of Latin America
Key item features
- The 2013 James Beard Foundation Cookbook of the YearThis extraordinary masterwork could only have been written by someone with an academics patience and sense of history and tradition. Vastly detailed and rich with anthropological, historical, and cultural information, I refer to this book first anytime I want to learn or better understand anything about Latin cuisine.This book not only answers the how but the why as well. Maricel is our bridge to the past, the history of Latin American cocina, describing the original connections to Spain and its cooking and then what has evolved... more aromas, more textures, more flavors, more sexy ingredients. We can now understand Latin America better because of Maricel and the amazing foods that tell its rich history.I know of no other book that approaches the scholarship, passion and decades-long dedication that Maricel Presilla has lavished onBooks like this dont happen very often so drink it in and know it will still be in your kitchen ten years from now.The food of the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking New World is complex, intricate, and has variety and range, extending from Cuba to Ecuador and from Mexico to Brazil. Maricel Presilla, a chef and food historian, takes us through that whole continent in a comprehensible, intelligent, original, and delicious voyage.[A] serious but accessible study.CN
