Description:

The traditional foods of La Mancha tell stories all their own. Some of Spain's most outstanding products come from this region, including Manchego cheese, saffron, Serrano ham, fine wines, and flavorful oils. The cooking of La Mancha can be as simple a pisto, a medley of summer vegetables sauteed in love oil, or as complex as the layered flavors of lam stuffed with spinach and pine nuts. It's as subtle as saffron ice cream, and as robust as peasant garlic soup.

In Cooking from the Heart of Spain--the first English cookbook to focus specifically on the foods of this distinctive region--Janet Mendel offers up nearly two hundred recipes for rustic, fresh dishes, including tapas, soups, salads, meat and fish, sides, and desserts. Throughout are quotes and stories from Don Quixote that offer insight, character, and a sense of adventure to this wonderful region and its fabulous cuisine.
