The brand-new fourth edition of this widely praised
reference guide has been updated with new information for
everyone, including lovers of ethnic foods and health food
aficionados. The authors have added many all-new entries on
exotic produce and other unusual ingredients. An earlier
edition of The New Food Lover’s Companion was hailed by
Bon Appétit magazine as “one of the best reference books
we’ve seen, a must for every cook’s library.” This new
edition has even more to offer! Among the myriad foods and
culinary subjects defined and explained are cooking tools
and techniques, meat cuts, breads, pastas, international
foods, cheeses, eggs and omelets, herbs and spices, fruits
and vegetables, candies and desserts, wines and cocktails,
and literally everything else related to good food and
enjoyable dining. Handy and helpful appendices cover a wide
range of food-related topics. They include suggestions for
substituting recipe ingredients, high-altitude baking
adjustments, a microwave oven conversion chart, recommended
safe cooking temperatures for various meats and fish, a
guide to reading food package labels, seasoning suggestions
to enhance favorite dishes, a food additives directory, and
much more. The New Food Lover’s Companion is a reference
guide—not a cookbook—but it includes hundreds of cooking
tips plus an extensive bibliography of recommended cookbooks
and other food-related literature. Here in one volume is an
invaluable companion for cooks—and for everybody else who
loves good food. More than 6,700 entries plus line art that
shows retail cuts of lamb, pork, beef, and veal.
