| Review: |
When I first saw this book I though, what a curious subject for a cookbook. Then I started reading and couldn't put it down. I had never realized the huge contribution the Scottish have made not only to American history, but also to its cuisine. Scottish-American author and lecturer Kay Shaw Nelson channeled her ancestral pride and passion for cooking into a fascinating book that challenges the popular notion that Scottish food is less than flavorful or healthful. In between the truly delicious and enticing recipes are snippets of tidbits and trivia. For instance, did you know that the Scots introduced fried chicken to America? Or that the folks behind Tabasco Sauce, Campbell's Soup, Old Crow Bourbon, not to mention the Graham cracker, were all Scottish. Whether you're from Scotland and are missing a taste of home, are an aficionado of all things Celtic, or are simply looking for new dishes and flavors to incorporate into your cooking repertoire, you're sure to find lots of terrific recipes here. Chapters include: Starters; Soups; Egg and Cheese Dishes; Fish; Poultry and Game; Meats; Vegetables and Salads; Barley, Oats, and Cornmeal; Breads; Cakes and Cookies; Desserts; Beverages. |
