Ethan Stowell's New Italian Kitchen (HC, 2010)

Description: Ethan Stowell's New Italian Kitchen: Bold Cooking from Seattle's Anchovies & Olives, How to Cook a Wolf, Staple & Fancy Mercantile, and Tavolata Welcome to Ethan Stowell’s New Italian Kitchen--not so much a place as a philosophy. Here food isn’t formal or fussy, just focused, with recipes that honor Italian tradition while celebrating the best ingredients the Pacific Northwest has to offer. We’re talking about a generous bowl of steaming handmade pasta--served with two forks for you and a friend. Or perhaps an impeccably fresh crudo, crunchy cucumber and tangy radish accenting impossibly sweet spot prawns. Next up are the jewel tones of a beet salad with lush, homemade ricotta, or maybe a tangle of white beans and clams spiked with Goat Horn pepper--finished off with a whole roasted fish that begs to be sucked off the bones. Oh, some cheese, a gooseberry compote complementing your Robiola, or the bittersweet surprise of Campari sorbet. This layered approach is a hallmark of Ethan’s restaurants, and in his New Italian Kitchen, he offers home cooks a tantalizing roadmap for re-creating this style of eating. Prepare a feast simply by combining the lighter dishes found in “Nibbles and Bits”—from Sardine Crudo with Celery Hearts, Pine Nuts, and Lemon to Crispy Young Favas with Green Garlic Mayonnaise—or adding recipes with complex flavors for a more sophisticated meal. Try the luscious Corn and Chanterelle Soup from “The Measure of a Cook;” or the Cavatelli with Cuttlefish, Spring Onion, and Lemon from “Wheat’s Highest Calling.” Up the ante with a stunning Duck Leg Farrotto with Pearl Onions and Bloomsdale Spinach from “Starches to Grow On,” or choose one of the “Beasties of the Land,” like Skillet-Roasted Rabbit with Pancetta-Basted Fingerlings. Each combination will nudge you and your guests in new, unexpected, and unforgettable directions. Every page of Ethan Stowell’s New Italian Kitchen captures the enthusiasm, humor, and imagination that make cooking one of life’s best and most satisfying adventures. It’s got to be good--but it’s also got to be fun. HC, 240 pp, 2010 FOR U.S. BUYERS, I AM HAPPY TO COMBINE SHIPPING ON MULTIPLE AUCTION WINS AT THE COST OF POSTAGE PLUS 25 CENTS TO COVER HANDLING AND MAILING SUPPLIES. FYI: I take a great deal of pride in offering good products....products that I would want to buy myself, at reasonable prices with excellent, careful packaging and some of the most cost effective shipping on Ebay. I send your packages to you based on a simple formula -- one of the best on EBAY.....the actual cost of the shipping plus 25 cents for delivery confirmation. This is for single items or multiple item packages. Delivery confirmation lets you KNOW that I have shipped your purchase and we both know if and when it has been delivered. I charge nothing extra for my time or for my packaging materials. I buy bubble mailers....not the cheap ones, but quality envelopes that protect against rough handling by the USPS and most often gets your book to you in the same condition as it was when I shipped it out. I most often offer at least two shipping options....one that is fast and a bit more expensive and one that is slower and "cheap." Since I primarily sell books this is usually media mail. Media mail by USPS definition, on average takes 3 - 9 business days. If it is a busy time of year, a big box or a destination that is further than most, it can often take longer than that. I ship out within 24 hours of payment (or the next business day if it is a holiday or weekend). I often go to the PO twice a day. That is all that I can do to help insure timely delivery for you. PLEASE KNOW -- I have no control over the time it takes the USPS once the package leaves my hands. . If you win this auction, please consider the above and judge my performance as a seller accordingly when you leave feedback. THANKS!!!
