All Manner of Food

150 recipes garnish the feast of food lore served up by one of America's most celebrated cooking teachers. Believing that the more we know about foods -- their chemistry, ideal texture, & color -- the more inventively we can cook with them, Field explores both the familiar & rare ingredients of international cookery. The recipes that flow directly out of his discourse are given with the clarity that ensure fluent cooking & memorable eating.Field, Michael is the author of 'All Manner of Food', published 1982 under ISBN 9780880010139 and ISBN 0880010134.
