 Off the Eaten Path
PR: 3
Off the Eaten Path. Blumer, Bob. Ballantine Books. Softcover. Off the Eaten Path. For Bob Blumer, otherwise known as the Surreal Gourmet, cooking is less a craft and more performance art. In Off the Eaten Path, Blumer forgoes traditional tools and cooking methods for the extremely unconventional, like using a dishwasher to poach fish, a car engine to sizzle shrimp, and an iron to literally press a toasted cheese sandwich to crispness. Blumer wants to shock you, and if such recipes as Blackened Home-Fried Potatoes from Hell, Pyrotechnic Pineapple, and Love Me Tenderloin don´t get his point across, the chapter on ´Surreal Meals´ certainly will. Here, appearances are meant to deceive: salmon has been cut to look like carrots, melon and prosciutto arranged to resemble ham and eggs, and pound cake cut into ´fries´ and served with a squeeze bottle of raspberry ´ketchup.´ In light of all this, Off the Eaten Path seems less a cookbook than a novelty item you´ll keep on your coffee table or give as a gag gift. And so it is, but you´ll definitely be amused. 144 pages.. 9780345421500. 0345421507. 144pag. 24x21x1.Ingles (English). |

The Rose Thieves. Schmidt, Heidi Jon. Picador USA. Paperback. The Rose Thieves. The Rose Thieves gives us the Vanderwald family: flamboyant, hot-tempered Lila, who feels trapped living in a small New England town; her sentimental, eternally optimistic husband, a failed futures-market investor; and their children. An affectionate daughter steals flowers from gardens all over town for her big sister´s sixteenth birthday. A tea party for the local minister is turned upside down by a four-year-old´s remark. Sheep wander through the kitchen, an enraged mother swan menaces the sisters as their own mother entertains a possible lover, and, after a near-disaster, Lila proclaims ´We faced death; death couldn´t face us!´ Amidst the chaos, Kate, the oldest daughter, practices piano because ´Haydn will give order to everything, if only you play him right.´ With wit, natural artistry, and a keen eye for the absurd, Heidi Jon Schmidt effortlessly weaves stories of strange but all-too-real family life.. 9780312288327. 0312288328. 158pag. 21x13x2.Ingles (English). |
