 | The Pat Conroy Cookbook: Recipes and Stories of My Life
Brand: Nan A. Talese
America’s favorite storyteller, Pat Conroy, is back with a unique cookbook that only he could conceive. Delighting us with tales of his passion for cooking and good food and the people, places, and great meals he has experienced, Conroy mixes them together with mouthwatering recipes from the Deep South and the world beyond.<br><br>It all started thirty years ago with a chance purchase of <i>The Escoffier Cookbook,</i> an unlikely and daunting introduction for the beginner. But Conroy was more than up to the task. He set out with unwavering determination to learn the basics of French cooking—stocks and dough—and moved swiftly on to veal demi-glace and pâte brisée. With the help of his culinary accomplice, Suzanne Williamson Pollak, Conroy mastered the dishes of his beloved South as well as the cuisine he has savored in places as far away from home as Paris, Rome, and San Francisco. <br><br>Each chapter opens with a story told with the inimitable brio of the author. We see Conroy in New Orleans celebrating his triumphant novel <i>The Prince of Tides</i> at a new restaurant where there is a contretemps with its hardworking young owner/chef—years later he discovered the earnest young chef was none other than Emeril Lagasse; we accompany Pat and his wife on their honeymoon in Italy and wander with him, wonderstruck, through the markets of Umbria and Rome; we learn how a dinner with his fighter-pilot father was preceded by the Great Santini himself acting out a perilous night flight that would become the last chapters of one of his son’s most beloved novels. These tales and more are followed by corresponding recipes—from Breakfast Shrimp and Grits and Sweet Potato Rolls to Pappardelle with Prosciutto and Chestnuts and Beefsteak Florentine to Peppered Peaches and Creme Brulee. A master storyteller and passionate cook, Conroy believes that “A recipe is a story that ends with a good meal.”<br><br>“This book is the story of my life as it relates to the subject of food. It is my autobiography in food and meals and restaurants and countries far and near. Let me take you to a restaurant on the Left Bank of Paris that I found when writing <i>The Lords of Discipline. </i>There are meals I ate in Rome while writing <i>The Prince of Tides</i> that ache in my memory when I resurrect them. There is a shrimp dish I ate in an elegant English restaurant, where Cuban cigars were passed out to all the gentlemen in the room after dinner, that I can taste on my palate as I write this. There is barbecue and its variations in the South, and the subject is a holy one to me. I write of truffles in the Dordogne Valley in France, cilantro in Bangkok, catfish in Alabama, scuppernong in South Carolina, Chinese food from my years in San Francisco, and white asparagus from the first meal my agent took me to in New York City. Let me tell you about the fabulous things I have eaten in my life, the story of the food I have encountered along the way. . . ” | *$10.01 |

A longtime nutritionist and former head of the Department of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health at New York University, Nestle lectures worldwide and was featured in the movie <I>Super Size Me</I>. A native New Yorker, she raised her family in California and now lives in Greenwich Village.</DIV></DIV> <DIV><B>Winner of the James Beard Foundation Award</B></DIV><DIV><B></B> </DIV><DIV> Since its publication in hardcover in 2006, Marion Nestle’s <I>What to Eat </I>has become the definitive guide to making healthy and informed choices about food. Praised as "accessible, reliable and comprehensive" in <I>The Washington Post</I>, <I>What to Eat </I>is a resource packed with important information and useful advice from the acclaimed nutritionist.</DIV><DIV><BR>How we choose which foods to eat is growing more complicated, and the straightforward, practical approach of <I>What to Eat </I>has been praised as welcome relief. Nestle guides readers through the supermarket sections—produce, dairy, meat, fish, breads, and juices, and then to the "center aisles," where big profits are made. She uses clear language to reveal the big food companies' marketing practices and get to the heart of the real issues. She cuts through foodie jargon and complex nutrition labels and debunks the misleading health claims made by the major companies in the food industry. Nestle explains the differences between foods that are wild and those that are farm-raised; frozen and fresh; and organic, natural, and conventional. She tells us what we need to know about carbohydrates, omega-3s, and <I>trans</I> fats; pesticides and the environment; portion size, labeling, and nutrition claims; supplements, additives, and preservatives; and food safety.</DIV> <DIV><DIV><DIV><DIV>"Not only is <I>What to Eat</I> the most comprehensive guide to the political and nutritional choices we make shopping for food, but it's also full of up-to-date research on health."—<B>Susan Salter Reynolds, </B><I><B>Los Angeles</B></I><B><I> Times Book Review</I></B></DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV>"W ith this comprehensive guide, Nestle, a nutritionist, makes the weekly trip to the grocery less daunting and a healthy diet more attainable."—<B><I>Science News</I></B></DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV><DIV ><DIV>“[This] book is for anyone who has read a food label; been annoyed at how often their children nag them for certain cereals; wondered about the difference between natural and organic; or questioned who is minding the store when it comes to nutrition and food safety.”—<B>Marian Burros, <I>The New York Times </I></B></DIV><DIV><BR>“Nestle is simply one of the nation's smartest and most influential authorities on nutrition and food policy.”—<B>Carol Ness, <I>San Francisco Chronicle </I></B></DIV><DIV><BR>“Meticulously researched, thorough, and indispensable—Marion Nestle's <I>What to Eat</I> delivers on its title. It's a reliable, riveting guide to the amazing truth about what we're sold by the American food distribution system. Refreshingly rigorous and fun to read.”—<B>Alice Waters</B></DIV><DIV><BR>"When it comes to the increasingly treacherous landscape of the American supermarket, with its marketing hype and competing health claims, Marion Nestle is an absolutely indispensable guide: knowledgeable, eminently sane—and wonderful company, too.”—<B>Michael Pollan, author of <I>Omnivore's Dilemma</I></B><BR> <BR></DIV></DIV>"Pa rt muckraking journalism, part reference book and part consumer guide, <I>What to Eat</I> is organized in the manner suggested by the subtitle: as a walk down each grocery store aisle with a companionable Ph. D. researcher as the guide. It is a simple, yet effective, concept for organizing what otherwise could have become a mind-numbing amount of information."—<B>Steve Weinberg, <I>St. Louis Post-Dispatch</I></B></DIV></DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV>"The industry wants you to believe there are no good foods or bad foods. Well, that's not true. And I can't think of anyone who knows the difference better than Marion Nestle."—<B>Eric Schlosser, author of <I>Fast Food Nation</I></B><BR> <BR>"According to nutritionist Nestle, the increasing confusion among the general public about what to eat comes from two sources: experts who fail to create a holistic view by isolating food components and health issues, and a food industry that markets items on the basis of profits alone. She suggests that, often, research findings are deliberately obscure to placate special interests. Nestle says that simple, common-sense guidelines available decades ago still hold true: consume fewer calories, exercise more, eat more fruits and vegetables and, for today's consumers, less junk food. The key to eating well, Nestle advises, is to learn to navigate through the aisles (and thousands of items) in large supermarkets. To that end, she gives readers a virtual tour, highlighting the main concerns of each food group, including baby, health and prepared foods, and supplements. Nestle's prose is informative and entertaining; she takes on the role of detective, searching for clues to the puzzle of healthy and satisfying nutrition. Her intelligent and reassuring approach will likely make readers venture more confidently through the jungle of today's super-sized stores."—<I><B>Publishers Weekly</B> </I></DIV></DIV></DIV> | *$7.98 |
