Details
Much more than a cookbook, this is a celebration of all things porcine—a unique blend of historical, geographical, and culinary interest, together with clear explanations of how to cook the different cuts of pork and delicious recipes. The idea of being able to "cook everything but the oink" of a pig permeates the recipes which are informed by the traditions covered in the main text. Completely international and full of fantastic photographs and an engaging text, this book features recipes such as Escalopes of Pork with Avocado and Sage; Loin of Pork with Mustard and Vermouth; Leek and Smoked Bacon Risotto; Tomato, Ham and Herb Tarts; Scotch Eggs; Pig's Liver with Lemon and Honey; and Cassoulet. Includes dual measurements.
