Bob Hart's Barbecue Gourmand (HB) by Bob Hart

$34.95 AUD

Available Stock:
1

Category: Food, Wine and Cooking

 Barbecue bon vivant Bob Hart has covered every gamut of the art, from cooking outdoors over fire in his BARBECUE UNPLUGGED, to the basic bibles every barbecuer needs: his two Heat & Smoke titles.  With those foundations now well established, Bob has dragged his trusty barbecues into a w orld of haute cuisine, where pears are lovingly cooked over charcoal with a waft of pecan smoke, where salmon is placed on a cedar plank for a new twist on a salad nicoise and where a classic tournedos Rossini is dragged out of the kitchen and on to a grill. Perhaps the most ambitious barbecue book ever attempted, BARBECUE GOURMAND features more than 50 illustrated recipes for gourmet meals plus essential side dishes, salads and indispensable sauces, dressings, rubs and gravies that bring a touch of class to the barbecuing art and allows that staple of any Aussie backyard to take its rightful place as the star of a fancy dinner party. AUTHOR: Bob is the founder of the Melbourne-based Australian Barbecue Academy, where he teaches masterclasses for small groups in his magnificently appointed backyard, and has been a regular contributor to radio station 3AW. The former journalist and current food writer has cemented himself as Australia's foremost authority on all things barbecue and barbecuing, and no serious Aussie backyard hero can claim the title of barbecue champion without first consulting one of Bob's books. ...Show more

Unvarnished - A Gimlet-Eyed Look at Life Behind the Bar by Eric Alperin; Deborah Stoll

$59.99 AUD

Available Stock:
1

Category: Food, Wine and Cooking

A Kitchen Confidential for the cocktail profession, Unvarnished is a fly-on-the-wall narrative peek at the joys, pains, and peculiarities of life "behind the stick."When it opened a decade ago, the acclaimed Los Angeles speakeasy The Varnish--owned, designed, and managed by award-winning cocktail aficio nado Eric Alperin--quickly became the stylish standard bearer for modern bars. Unvarnished is a candid, voice-driven, no-holds-barred look at the workings of a bar, and the foundation of The Varnish's success: attention to hospitality and an abiding belief in the nobility of service. Alperin and veteran bartender and writer Deborah Stoll push back against the prevailing conceit that working in the service industry is something people do because they failed at another career. They offer fascinating meditations on ice as the bartender's flame; the good, the bad, and the sad parts of vice; one's duty to their community as a local; the obsessive, compulsive deliberations of building a bar (size matters); lessons from Sasha Petraske--Eric's late partner, mentor, and the forefather of the modern day classic cocktail renaissance--and the top ten reasons not to date a bartender. At the book's center are the 100 recipes a young Jedi bartender must know before their first shift at The Varnish, along with examples of building drinks by the round, how to Mr. Potato Head cocktails, and what questions to ask when crafting a Bartender's Choice. A sexy, gritty, honest look at the glamour-less work of a glamorous job, written with the intimate honesty of The Tender Bar, the debauched inside view of Kitchen Confidential, and the social commentary of Waiter Rant, Unvarnished will take its place among these classics of the service set. ...Show more

French Wine - A History by Rod Phillips

Category: Food, Wine and Cooking

"A fascinating book that belongs on every wine lover's bookshelf."--The Wine Economist"It's a book to read for its unstoppable torrent of fascinating and often surprising details."--Andrew Jefford, Decanter For centuries, wine has been associated with France more than with any other country. France rema ins one of the world's leading wine producers by volume and enjoys unrivaled cultural recognition for its wine. If any wine regions are global household names, they are French regions such as Champagne, Bordeaux, and Burgundy. Within the wine world, products from French regions are still benchmarks for many wines. French Wine is the first synthetic history of wine in France: from Etruscan, Greek, and Roman imports and the adoption of wine by beer-drinking Gauls to its present status within the global marketplace. Rod Phillips places the history of grape growing and winemaking in each of the country's major regions within broad historical and cultural contexts. Examining a range of influences on the wine industry, wine trade, and wine itself, the book explores religion, economics, politics, revolution, and war, as well as climate and vine diseases. French Wine is the essential reference on French wine for collectors, consumers, sommeliers, and industry professionals. ...Show more

The Roads to Rome by Jarrett Wrisley; Paolo Vitaletti

$69.99 AUD

Available Stock:

Category: Food, Wine and Cooking

An epic, exquisitely photographed road trip through the Italian countryside, exploring the ancient traditions, master artisans, and over 80 storied recipes that built the iconic cuisine of Rome When former food writer Jarrett Wrisley and chef Paolo Vitaletti decided to open an Italian restaurant, they d idn't just take a trip to Rome. They spent years crisscrossing the surrounding countryside, eating, drinking, and traveling down whatever road they felt like taking. Only after they opened Appia, an authentic Roman trattoria in Bangkok of all places, did they realize that their epic journey had all the makings of a book. So they went back. And this time, they took a photographer. Roman cuisine doesn't come from Rome, exactly, but from the roads to Rome--the trade routes that brought foods from all over Italy to the capital. In The Roads to Rome, Jarrett and Paolo weave their way between Roman kitchens and through the countryside of Lazio, Umbria, and Emilia-Romagna, meeting farmers and artisans and learning about the origins of the ingredients that gave rise to such iconic dishes as pasta Cacio e Pepe and Spaghetti all'Amatriciana. They go straight to source of the beloved dishes of the countryside, highlighting recipes for everything from Vignarola bursting with saut ed artichokes, fava beans, and spring peas with guanciale to Porchetta made with crisp-roasted pork belly and loin. Five years in the making, part-cookbook and part-travelogue, The Roads to Rome is an ode to the butchers, fishermen, and other artisans who feed the city, and how their history and culture come to the plate. ...Show more
