| "Saveur magazine, now
three years old, has made notable impact, helping to make grass-roots American cooking
fashionable again. It's stylish, knowledgeable, chatty, sometimes quirky, gorgeous,
you-are-there photographs of food and cooks. Most of all, it explores the connections
between people and places and the food they produce. But even if you stockpile copies,
Saveur Cooks Authentic American is a good book to have. The same infectious energy that runs through the magazine also animates the 150 recipes and numerous photographs. Appetizers through desserts, it's all Americana. There's a roast turkey with corn-bread stuffing, a Maine blueberry pie, shrimp and crab etouffee, iceberg wedge with blue cheese dressing (along with a spirited defense of iceberg lettuce), smoked trout hash and barbecued ribs. All the recipes have the voice of authenticity-that is to say, they are true to their regional roots. |
