we're highlighting three thoughtful books today. In his blog entry,
Culinary
Intelligence - An Emerging Trend, Ruhlman reviews two
books. Culinary
Intelligence: The Art of Eating Healthy and Really
Well, by Peter
Kaminsky, talks about being smart about food, thinking sensibly
about cooking and eating. As Ruhlman writes, " Getting
middle-aged and plump myself, it was my kind of book (the subtitle
says it all)."
And in French Kids Eat Everything, Ruhlman has found a book with the same goal but targeted for a different audience.The subtitle also says it all: "How our family moved to France, cured picky eating, banned snacking, and discovered 10 simple rules for raising happy, healthy eaters."
And finally, Ruhlman's own new book, Ruhlman's Twenty, 20 Techniques, 100 Recipes, A Cook's Manifesto, which just won the James Beard award for general cooking, is available again. It sold out almost immediately after publication, but has now been reprinted. Find out how just a few techniques - both obvious and not-so-obvious - make cooking easy. You can find more information here.
Happy reading!
