Publishers Text
Cuban Flavor celebrates the incredible taste of Cuban cuisine and the sites, color, and energy of Cuban culture. To make this incredible volume, Cynthia Carris Alonso, an acclaimed photographer and the author of Passage to Cuba, her Cuban husband, José Luis Alonso, and veteran food photographer Liza Gershman took to the streets of Cuba, photographing the country and stopping in its best paladars along the way.
This visually stunning volume features seventy-five authentic Cuban recipes provided by chefs the authors met during their travels through Cuba. The recipes include main courses, appetizers, desserts, and drinks - everything from creative paellas to café cubanos and are featured alongside photographs of the chefs and interviews with them. To complete the visual and culinary journey are full-bleed images of Cuba that celebrate its sites and its people.
Cuban Flavor will release during this historic time period in which the American embargo against Cuba is being relaxed and travel from the United States to Cuba is opening up for the first time since 1963. In celebration, this remarkable oversize volume offers a taste of a little-known culture to a public who has long been deprived of its intoxicating flavors.
