The New Food Lover's Companion

De (autor): Ron Herbst

The fifth edition of this widely praised and highly esteemed reference guide has been updated with new information to reflect the way we eat in today's world. The authors have taken into account our healthier lifestyles and more diverse palates to include:

Over 500 new listings, including Korean, Persian, and South American additions

Updated information for hundreds of existing entries

A blood alcohol concentration chart for men and women

An extensive breakdown of food labels and nutritional facts

Department of Agriculture recommendations for a 2,000 calorie per day food plan

Among the myriad foods and culinary subjects defined and explained are cooking tools and techniques, meat cuts, breads, pastas, and literally everything else related to good food and enjoyable dining. Handy appendices cover many topics including suggestions for substituting recipe ingredients, a microwave oven conversion chart, recommended safe cooking temperatures for meats and fish, and much more.

The New Food Lover's Companion is a reference guide--not a cookbook--but it includes hundreds of cooking tips plus an extensive bibliography of recommended cookbooks. More than 7200 entries plus line art are included in this seminal work.
