Traditional Spanish Cooking by Janet Mendel
Now available in paperback, Janet Mendel's classic work includes 270 recipes for traditional Spanish dishes from Andalusian red garlic fish soup to Catalan chicken, Asturias stuffed sardines and Galician fish stew to Castilian roast baby lamb and shepherds' stew from La Mancha. Her inspired introductions set the food in the context of a land situated on the crossroads of civilizations, and where the food is a true melting pot of many cultures.
One of my favourite books.. it is such an inspirational book, with a good recipe on almost every page. -- Simon Hopkinson Independent You know how it is with some cookery books - you take one look at the ingredients and you lose the will to live. You don't need to worry about that with this outstanding volume. One receipe has just three lines. Brilliant. Tasty too. Birmingham Evening Mail This is country cooking at its best with marvellous combinations of flavour and texture, aroma and comfort. What could be better?... Traditional Spanish Cooking is a gem of a book full of delicious and sometimes surprising dishes. Great value for money. www.mostlyfood.co.uk Mendel is an American who has lived in southern Spain for more than 30 years, immersing herself in the culture and cooking. This is an authoritative blend of both, with engaging asides on local history and culture that make it more than just a thorough compendium of enticing recipes. Observer Food Monthly
