Northern Hospitality with The Portland Hunt + Alpine Club

Más información sobre el libro

"In Portland, Maine, Andrew and Briana Volk welcome people into their restaurant like it's an extension of their home. You might start out the night with a drink from Andrew like the Pines (with gin, Cynar, and stone pine liqueur, it's a walk in the woods) or the Norseman (a Scandinavian take on the old-fashioned, with aquavit). In addition to creating new tastes, he also has a passion for perfecting the classics behind the bar, from the Pimm's Cup to hot buttered rum. Andrew shares more than just recipes in Northern Hospitality, though. You'll also see lessons on batching cocktails, warm drinks, and Mezcal to name a few. After a drink, move on to food inspired by both Portland and Scandinavia. The bar snacks are addictive; green chile popcorn, cured venison, and house-made pretzels, are just the beginning --smorgasbords feature smoked fish, cheese, and house-made cider pickles. Swedish meatballs with spaetzle and nutmeg cream are sure to warm you up. Or go further from the known with the nori hashbrowns and trout roe. Features on ice fishing, shucking oysters, how to build a bonfire, and apres-ski provide a sense of place and an experience as unique as the club itself. Celebrate the seasons the way those in the north do: with warmth, fun, and a sense of wonder"-- "Northern Hospitality celebrates the culture of the northeast along with recipes and cocktails from The Portland Hunt + Alpine Club"--
