Delectable Dishes from Termite Hall: Rare and Unusual Recipes from Old Mobile, France, Holland, Spring Hill, Italy , Denmark, Bayou la Batre, Dog River, Germany, Spain, Natchez, Codn & Divers Other Pleasant Localities. - Termite Hall was once called Halfway House when people stopped there to water their horses and bend their elbows. Remarkable people stayed or visited there, just as equally remarkable people have continued to stay or visit there since it has been a private residence. One such is the author of this book, a Mobilian raised in a tradition of good food and wine who has never ceased, in his peregrinations to France, Belgium, Denmark, Holland, Italy, Spain, Greece, Tunisia, Egypt, Alaska, Canada, to seek out old-fashioned cooks and traditional dishes to add to his culinary archives. Begun when he was 14, when he collected (and still does) kitchen lore and recipes from good cooks everywhere. This volume, first of a series, is full of surprises and delights for the adventurous cook.
