Good Ramen

My wife and I are leaving on a trip tomorrow and leaving him with a sitter. We are missing him already.

A guess it’s out of print. Nice beginner guide with plenty of recipes.

While visiting friends in Britain we were gifted this book. It has absolutely gorgeous illustrations and it is a joy to thumb through. It also has a great variety of recipes from around the world.

When my wife and I were visiting Belgium we fell in love with the food. We purchased this cookbook. One of my favorite recipes is the Mashed Potatoes with Winter Vegetables. Simple.

1 lb bread crumbs
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt

To make the devil crab:

hand. Indent with the back of a spoon. Fill with 1 tablespoon of filling. Work the dough
around the filling to form a croquette. Dip croquette in beaten egg. Then roll in a mixture

Deep fry until golden brown.

Usually served with hot sauce on the side.

I saw Sara Moulton mention this book and I had to have it. A great book just to read. Lowcountry and Southern recipes.

The author submits that what makes a dish chili is the addition of chili powder. A wide variety of chili dishes, each giving homage to its region.

I loved his TV show also. I garantee.

These are well used.

Vintage first edition by Vincent Price

This book was gifted to me by my mom when I first moved out of their house in my early twenties. It was her bible of Cuban cooking. The writer was the famous Las Novedades Restaurant in Ybor City, Tampa.
I still use it and is well worn.
