Shoofly Pie to Die by Barbara Workinger Pdf

SHOOFLY PIE TO DIE- A Pennsylvania Dutch Country Mystery "Humor, suspense, and wonderful characters laid against an atmospheric setting of Pennsylvania Dutch Country." Quilt maker, mystery reading Amish detective, Hannah --AKA Granny Hanny-Miller is once again drawn into murder and mystery, (the second in the Amish Country series, after In Dutch Again), in her newest mystery, Shoofly Pie to Die. After deciding she is through with the unsavory like business of investigating murder, circumstances pull Hannah away from the quilt-making into another brutal crime. She is an unwilling spectator at a killing. Detested antique dealer Denny Brody is found dead, stuffed into a pickle barrel, on a dilapidated covered bridge, and the only witness is Hannah. When the means of Denny's demise appears to be a poisoned shoofly pie Hannah made by Hannah, she and her formerly Amish granddaughter, Lancaster attorney, Caroline, are drawn deep into the investigation. As Hannah and Caroline struggle to clear Hannah before Caroline's upcoming wedding, the list of suspects grows. As they begin to close in, the killer strikes again, and it becomes clear to the murderer that Hannah must be his next target. Hannah's only weapons are courage and resourcefulness. Will they be enough to save herself and her family from the killer? Early Review Comments: "Shoofly Pie to Die" is a true mystery-lovers book. It has a complicated plot with a lot of action and an unexpected ending. I really couldn't put this one down." Another reader says: "Granny Hannah Miller is a wonderful character, direct, intelligent, and at ease in her culture. The plot is lively and moves along, holding ones interest from beginning to end."

As American as Shoofly Pie by William Woys Weaver Pdf

When visitors travel to Pennsylvania Dutch Country, they are encouraged to consume the local culture by way of "regional specialties" such as cream-filled whoopie pies and deep-fried fritters of every variety. Yet many of the dishes and confections visitors have come to expect from the region did not emerge from Pennsylvania Dutch culture but from expectations fabricated by local-color novels or the tourist industry. At the same time, other less celebrated (and rather more delicious) dishes, such as sauerkraut and stuffed pork stomach, have been enjoyed in Pennsylvania Dutch homes across various localities and economic strata for decades. Celebrated food historian and cookbook writer William Woys Weaver delves deeply into the history of Pennsylvania Dutch cuisine to sort fact from fiction in the foodlore of this culture. Through interviews with contemporary Pennsylvania Dutch cooks and extensive research into cookbooks and archives, As American as Shoofly Pie offers a comprehensive and counterintuitive cultural history of Pennsylvania Dutch cuisine, its roots and regional characteristics, its communities and class divisions, and, above all, its evolution into a uniquely American style of cookery. Weaver traces the origins of Pennsylvania Dutch cuisine as far back as the first German settlements in America and follows them forward as New Dutch Cuisine continues to evolve and respond to contemporary food concerns. His detailed and affectionate chapters present a rich and diverse portrait of a living culinary practice—widely varied among different religious sects and localized communities, rich and poor, rural and urban—that complicates common notions of authenticity. Because there's no better way to understand food culture than to practice it, As American as Shoofly Pie's cultural history is accompanied by dozens of recipes, drawn from exacting research, kitchen-tested, and adapted to modern cooking conventions. From soup to Schnitz, these dishes lay the table with a multitude of regional tastes and stories. Hockt eich hie mit uns, un esst eich satt—Sit down with us and eat yourselves full!

Mennonite Community Cookbook by Mary Emma Showalter Pdf

This “grandmother of all Mennonite cookbooks” brings a touch of Mennonite culture and hospitality to any home that relishes great cooking. Mary Emma Showalter compiled favorite recipes from hundreds of Mennonite women across the United States and Canada noted for their excellent cooking into this book of more than 1,100 recipes. These tantalizing dishes came to this country directly from Dutch, German, Swiss, and Russian kitchens. Old-fashioned cooking and traditional Mennonite values are woven throughout. Original directions like “a dab of cinnamon” or “ten blubs of molasses” have been standardized to help you get the same wonderful individuality and flavor. Showalter introduces each chapter with her own nostalgic recollection of cookery in grandma’s day—the pie shelf in the springhouse, outdoor bake ovens, the summer kitchen. First published in 1950, Mennonite Community Cookbook has become a treasured part of many family kitchens. Parents who received the cookbook when they were first married make sure to purchase it for their own sons and daughters when they wed. This 65th anniversary edition adds all new color photography and a brief history while retaining all of the original recipes and traditional Fraktur drawings.

The long-awaited new book in the phenomenal 1,000 . . . Before You Die series, it’s the marriage of an irresistible subject with the perfect writer, Mimi Sheraton—award-winning cookbook author, grande dame of food journalism, and former restaurant critic for The New York Times. 1,000 Foods fully delivers on the promise of its title, selecting from the best cuisines around the world (French, Italian, Chinese, of course, but also Senegalese, Lebanese, Mongolian, Peruvian, and many more)—the tastes, ingredients, dishes, and restaurants that every reader should experience and dream about, whether it’s dinner at Chicago’s Alinea or the perfect empanada. In more than 1,000 pages and over 550 full-color photographs, it celebrates haute and snack, comforting and exotic, hyper-local and the universally enjoyed: a Tuscan plate of Fritto Misto. Saffron Buns for breakfast in downtown Stockholm. Bird’s Nest Soup. A frozen Milky Way. Black truffles from Le Périgord. Mimi Sheraton is highly opinionated, and has a gift for supporting her recommendations with smart, sensuous descriptions—you can almost taste what she’s tasted. You’ll want to eat your way through the book (after searching first for what you have already tried, and comparing notes). Then, following the romance, the practical: where to taste the dish or find the ingredient, and where to go for the best recipes, websites included.
