Book Description
The deliciously informative story of Love & Quiches Gourmet—and the lessons one woman learned from her accidental business. When Susan Axelrod started selling quiches from her kitchen in 1973, she was armed with little but a lifelong passion for food. She had no inkling that the tiny, haphazard enterprise would, over four decades later, be competing with the giants of the industry. But as Susan got Love and Quiches off the ground, she discovered that her passion was propelling her ever forward—and into the role of full-fledged entrepreneur. In With Love and Quiches, Susan brings her journey to life, imparting decades worth of life and business lessons to readers. She describes the hilarious chaos of the early days, rife with cluelessness and novice mistakes (giving readers a clear picture of what not to do). But she also explains the steady expansion of Love and Quiches—as it moved from selling a few quiches and desserts to New York–area restaurants to shipping its products around the world; as it went from a loose and wasteful operation to a lean, effective, multimillion-dollar powerhouse; and as her husband, son, and daughter joined her one by one as leaders in the company. Brimming with colorful anecdotes, a deep love of good food, and the incisive wit and wisdom of its author, With Love and Quiches pulls back the curtain on a business success story—from baking sheets to balance sheets. It’s a story full of laughter, heartache, and hard-won knowledge that will inspire anyone with a good idea, a bit of ambition, at least a few resources and a healthy dose of passion.

Book Description
What is Jewish cooking in France? In a journey that was a labor of love, Joan Nathan traveled the country to discover the answer and, along the way, unearthed a treasure trove of recipes and the often moving stories behind them. Nathan takes us into kitchens in Paris, Alsace, and the Loire Valley; she visits the bustling Belleville market in Little Tunis in Paris; she breaks bread with Jewish families around the observation of the Sabbath and the celebration of special holidays. All across France, she finds that Jewish cooking is more alive than ever: traditional dishes are honored, yet have acquired a certain French finesse. And completing the circle of influences: following Algerian independence, there has been a huge wave of Jewish immigrants from North Africa, whose stuffed brik and couscous, eggplant dishes and tagines—as well as their hot flavors and Sephardic elegance—have infiltrated contemporary French cooking. All that Joan Nathan has tasted and absorbed is here in this extraordinary book, rich in a history that dates back 2,000 years and alive with the personal stories of Jewish people in France today.

The Hoosier Mama Book of Pie
Author: Paula Haney
Publisher: Agate Publishing
ISBN: 1572847190
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
Making a delicious pie has never been easier with this extensive cookbook from the popular Chicago bakery. When Paula Haney first opened the Hoosier Mama Pie Company on March 14, 2009 (Pi day, appropriately enough), she worried whether her new business could survive by specializing in just one thing. But with a line around the block, Paula realized she had a more immediate problem: had she made enough pie? The shop closed early that day, but it has been churning out plenty of the Chicago’s most delectable pies ever since. Specializing in hand-made, artisanal pies that only use locally sourced and in-season ingredients, Hoosier Mama Pie Company has become a local favorite and a national destination gaining praise from Bon Appetit, the Food Network, and Food & Wine as one of the top pie shops in the country. Now, The Hoosier Mama Book of Pie delivers all the sumptuous secrets of buttery crusts, fruity fillings, creams and custards, chess pies, over-the-top pies, and even the stout and hearty savory pie. The practically oriented, easy-going, and accessible style of this book will help bakers both new and old make the perfect pie for every occasion. On top of all of this, The Hoosier Mama Book of Pie also includes tips on technique, fascinating historical anecdotes, and an emphasis on special seasonal recipes, as well as quiches, hand pies, and scones. This beautifully photographed and designed book has the classic retro feel of the mid-20th century golden age of pie, and all the warmth and personality of the Hoosier Mama Pie Co.’s cozy Chicago storefront. The focus on using local produce and employing the farm-to-table philosophy gives the book a contemporary twist, helping home bakers make the freshest, most delicious pies imaginable. Now readers can take a little piece of the Hoosier Mama Pie Company anywhere they go. Praise for the Hoosier Mama Book of Pie “Paula Haney . . . just put out a massive cookbook with her recipes . . . and it’s something very special. The almost-400-page tome details Hoosier Mama’s opening and development, as well as Haney’s recipes for everything from crust to biscuits to custard fillings. The photos make everything look delicious and, to the above-average baker, everything seems relatively easy to execute.” —Marah Eakin, The AV Club “Everything you could possibly want to know about proper pie making is covered . . . No facet of the process is too humble for discussion; the merits of salt in the crust is given as much thought as the best way to combine butter and flour. If you’ve ever wanted to learn the right way to crimp a pie, or how to make lattice work actually work, this is the book for you.” —Serious Eats, naming Hoosier Mama a top dessert cookbook of 2013
