Around the World in 120 Recipes

Más información sobre el libro

(Taken from the front book jacket) Carted round countries as a child with her historian father, Allegra McEvedy was encouraged to keep a diary, but it was clear before the age of 10 that her daily descriptions contained only passing references to the cornucopia of culture she'd seen on that day. Writing instead about the aspect of the holiday that interested her, she became fascinated by all the new foods she was seeing and eating. Years went by and what were once just diaries became her Food Diaries, a travelling chef's notes of ingredients, dishes and all things cooking-related that made her eyes shine with excitement. Around the World in 120 Recipes is a cookbook like no other. Full of recipes of for Allegra's favourite meals eaten over nearly a quarter of a century of travelling, tasting and scribbling, this is a first-hand experience of dishes she has enjoyed all over the world - from West Coast Ricotta Cake in San Francisco to Seafood Stew in Salvador, Slow-Cooked Lamb in Marrakech to Artichokes with Polenta in Milan.
