Discovering Thai Cuisine

If you’ve never tried it before, you might think that Thai cuisine tastes a lot like other Asian cuisines. While it does have both Chinese and East Indian influences, it also has its own identity that separates it greatly from the foods served in neighboring countries. Thai food consists of four regional cuisines and is known for its balanced flavors, fresh ingredients, and fantastic aromas.

Culinary America – Regional Cuisines

The United States has long been viewed as a melting pot of many cultures. Nowhere is this diversity more apparent than in the foods we eat. Culinary America reflects the many cultures and histories that comprise this country. Historically, as immigrants arrived in this country, they brought their customs and recipes and combined them with the produce and livestock available in the regions where they settled. The results yielded foods that were distinctly American, while preserving traditions from Europe, Africa, Mexico, and other corners of the world. Culinary America truly encompasses global ingredients and recipes.

Turnip Tops and Nettles on Toast – A taste of Victorian Vegetarian Cookery

Did you know that the first vegetarian recipe book was published in 1690?  Or that the 19th Century saw not only a growth in the vegetarian movement, but also the publication of increasing numbers of vegetarian cookery books?

The recipe for Turnip Tops and Nettles on Toast appeared in a book called “Vegetarian Cookery by a Ladyâ€, published by Fred Pitman of London in 1866.   Fans of the current fashion for ‘wild’ food may wish to give this recipe a try, but the less adventurous could still find plenty of things to tempt them in the book, like Onion and Sage Fritters or Baked Vegetable Marrow.
