The Wines of California, the Pacific Northwest and… door Roy Andries De Groot
I believe I picked up this book at a library sale for a dollar. What a find! And the best reason to haunt Friends of Library sales. Published in 1982 this is a comprehensive guide to the history of the wine industry in America as well as a guide to what was hot back in 1982. It was fun to read about wineries I am familiar with since I grew up in Northern California. It was a delight to read a bit on Chateau Ste Michelle my favorite summertime evening concert picnic haunt in Woodinville. The author Roy Andries De Groot was an important food and wine writer for most of the major magazines and the New York Times starting in the sixties.… (meer)
an inspiring cook book, lots of good information about ingredients, great ideas for wine parings and for celebratory family meals, a few obscure holidays are thrown in so that it covers all the seasons...now that many chefs and home cooks are trying to source local foods this is wonderful inspiration from a time when food in the markets was at least seasonal if not locally produced
Influenced Alice Waters of Chez Panisse. Beautiful, delicious read.
I like the way the recipes are divided up into seasons, but this book is not for a beginner cook which is what I was back in the 60s when I got this. It uses complex recipes and many ingredients not readily in the kitchen. Nevertheless, a good resource for hard to find recipes.
