A Late Dinner: Discovering the Food of Spain
Paul Richardson - 2007
Paul Richardson is the perfect guide. In lush prose he brings to life the fascinating people who grow and cook and eat the hugely varied and still little-known food of Spain.Richardson's vibrant writing takes readers beyond gazpacho and paella and immerses them in the flavorful world of Spanish food -- from the typical coastal cuisine; to the ancient shepherd cooking of the mountains; to the cities of Madrid, Barcelona, and San Sebastian, where chefs are setting the trend for modern cuisine across the globe. His evocative descriptions -- the fried sh in Cadiz; the tender asparagus and sweet crispy lettuce of Navarre; the Catalan calcotada, a feast of grilled spring onions in a nutty, delicately spicy sauce; the whimsical creations of internationally acclaimed chef Ferran Adria -- are a celebration of the senses.Richardson traces the roots of Spanish cooking to the landscape, the people, and the history of this beautiful and complex country. "A Late Dinner" is a glorious and intimately drawn portrait of Spain.
