Every recipe that we create at Beekman 1802 is influenced by the harvests and the happenings that surround us. One peek at this wonderfully written book and you'll understand our source of inspiration. "Big Chuck" has compiled the very best of upstate cuisine in his trademark humorous voice. A must-have for any upstate road-tripper or foodie.--Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell, founders Beekman1802.com D'Imperio's book allows road trip enthusiasts to take a bite out of the best New York has to offer.--The Hudson River Valley Review I do not know of another book or publication that incorporates the stories of so many Upstate foods and the stories behind them.

Reseña del editor:

Upstate New York is the birthplace of many of America's favorite foods. The chicken wing was born in a bar in Buffalo, the potato chip originated in the kitchen of a glitzy Saratoga Springs hotel, the salt potato got its start along the marshy shores of a Syracuse lake, and Thousand Island dressing was created in a hotel along the St. Lawrence Seaway. In this book, D'Imperio travels across the region to discover the stories and people behind forty iconic foods of Upstate New York. He introduces readers to the black dirt farmers of Orange County who give America its best-tasting onions, to the Catskill's Candy Cane King, and to "Charlie the Butcher," purveyor of the best beef on weck in the state. Filled with color photographs, the book includes a map of the various regions around Upstate New York allowing the reader to create their own cultural and historic food tour.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
