Publishers Text

Drawing on written sources from the fifth century, B.C. to today, veteran cookbook author Oswald Rivera recreates ingredient lists and recipes to allow modern cooks to prepare historic delights from Esau's biblical mess of pottage to contemporary pasta primavera. Packed with fun facts, this culinary history includes such treats as a seven-course dinner from King Srenika's royal bash in first millennial Indus Valley, Colonial New England's Johny Cakes and the modern era's meatloaf. Black-and-white illustrations accompany this lively history of cooking.
