With 25 new recipes from noted Florida food writer Marisella Veiga, 'Famous Florida Recipes' brings in new cultural and regional material for home cooks throughout the state.
This little cookbook is a favorite of many Floridians. For more than ten years the author traveled Florida, collecting and testing recipes found to be popular with 'the natives': Greek Lamb Kebobs from Tarpon Springs, Fried Catfish from Clewiston, Beef Barbecue from Florida cow country, Key West Paella, Yam Praline Pie from the Panhandle. Recipes are grouped by region and each section is preceded by a mini history. Index. Line illustrations.
Now, with 25 new recipes from noted Florida food writer Marisella Veiga, Famous Florida Recipes brings in new cultural and regional material for home cooks throughout the state. With new dishes to make like phở made popular by the Vietnamese population in Central Florida, or Minorcan clam chowder in St. Augustine, readers interested in all of the culture and history that makes up the food profile of Florida will have the opportunity to cook from around the state and learn its history.
