Otago University Press From Kai to Kiwi Kitchen: New Zealand Culinary
Book SynopsisIn the past two decades, cuisine and culinary history have attracted increasing attention, with both popular and academic books reflecting the growth of interest. Recipes are both sensitive markers of the socioeconomic conditions of their times and written representations of a culture's culinary repertoire yet, despite the vast number of cookbooks that survive, they have not been the primary focus of research projects. Acknowledgement of their potential contribution to our understanding of culinary history has been slow. This book is a first in its field.Table of ContentsPreface -- PART I: The Macmillan Brown Lectures, 2008 -- 1 Maori Cookery before Cook / Helen M.

WORD The Universal Spirit,U.S. Vegetarians - Godless Heretics?
Book Synopsis"It is more and more obvious that excessive meat consumption is a severe problem. It causes obesity, heart disease and other illnesses in people. It causes unspeakable agonies in factory farming and a cruel death in the slaughterhouse. Left behind are clear-cut rainforests, contaminated soil and groundwaterand a planet Earth that is being driven directly into the climate disaster.Who brought this on us? ... The hunters? The butchers? The industry bosses? The greedy consumers? Everyone together? Anyone who sharpens his view finds the profession that already centuries ago laid the cornerstone for the brutal disregard of lifeand upholds this ""tradition"" until today ... Those who don''t join in are, until today, considered "godless heretics".An excerpt:"All true prophets of God and the apostles spoke against the killing of animals and against eating meat, just like Jesus of Nazareth. His penetrating words are repeated here: ''Verily, I say to you, I Am come to into the world in order to put an end to all blood offerings and to the eating of the flesh of animals and birds that are slain by men."Another sample:"About 1600 years ago, Jerome (347-420) compiled the first comprehensive translation of the Bible (into Latin). He knew that Jesus said not to eat meat. Why did Jerome not include this teaching in the New Testament, even though there are apocryphal writing that unequivocally report about this? Why not? That the followers of the Nazarene were vegetarians made them heretics, a fringe group to be fought against in the eyes of the people among the folks and those in power, who still clung very much to the old customs of blood sacrifice. (So, what is it like today?) ... "

Blue Bike Books For the Love of Coffee
Book SynopsisThey took away smoking, they took away drugs and promiscuous sex, they took away eating red meat and cat calling hot chicks on the street. All I have left is over-priced coffee, and by God I''m going to drink it! - Brent Sienna I''ll take a venti, half-sweet, non-fat, caramel macchiato with extra whipped cream. Hold the caramel. In our consumer culture, coffee has become almost unrecognizable from its origin as a little brown bean. There are entire communities and economies relying on coffee production, and there is a rich and--sometimes violent--history behind it as well: - Coffee is the most commonly used legal stimulant in the world - Coffee first became popular in Arabia in the 13th century, but it is said to have actually originated in Kaffa, an Ethiopian province, back in the 9th century - London coffee houses are credited with being the birthplace of the Stock Exchange in the late-17th century - Some coffee berries are processed only after being eaten--and deposited--by an animal Starbucks didn''t sell coffee-based drinks until more than 10 years after its inception and at first only sold coffee beans for brewing at home - In Finland, drinking coffee in the parish hall after church services is so important that it is often referred to as the third sacrament of the Finnish Lutheran Church. And so much more...
