Всичко за тази електронна книга

Flavours of Vancouver is a sublime collection of recipes gathered from the Lower Mainland’s CBC Radio listeners. Some are traditional family specialties, others mix a particular culinary heritage with local ingredients to create a uniquely West Coast taste sensation. Family recipes from some of Vancouver’s top chefs add spice notes along the way, and each of the recipes is accompanied by a tale about the dish’s origins.

The contents of this charming cookbook are as diverse as Vancouver’s citizens themselves. Explore the cultural heritage of Greater Vancouver through the recipes and stories of the people who live here. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of this book will go to Save the Children Canada.

За автора

Sheila Peacock caught the baking bug early from her mom, who can whip up the best Lemon Squares in no time flat. Then, as a producer for Vicki Gabereau, one of her specialties became food and wine interviews. Because of that beat, Sheila became a master at recipe contests with a twist. When she returned to CBC Radio, she couldn't resist opening the oven door again.

Joan Cross is an avid cook, largely self-taught from Julia Child’s books, although she has taken courses at Le Cordon Bleu, London, and with several notable chefs, including Jacques Pépin.
