Inside the California Food Revolution: Thirty Years That Changed Our Culinary Consciousness Volume 44 Hardcover - 2013
by Joyce Goldstein; Contribution by Dore Brown
From the rear cover
"Joyce Goldstein is the foremost expert on the watershed moment in American cooking when little-known ingredients began to shine and chefs came out of the kitchen. The California revolution created the foundation for the food personalities and flavors that we see globally today. This book tells the story better than any other." -Mario Batali, chef and author of Molto Italiano "Bravo! Joyce Goldstein's authoritative and eminently entertaining work retires the field on all books attempting to define the California food movement that forever changed the course of how we eat in America. It's a must-read for any cook, restaurateur, journalist, and restaurant-lover who is genuinely curious about how and where it all started." -Danny Meyer, chef and author of Setting the Table: The Transforming Power of Hospitality in Business "Who is better suited than Joyce Goldstein to curate and catalogue the influence that California has had on how we eat and dine today? This engrossing book is a satisfying and engaging read." -David Kinch, chef and author of Manresa: An Edible Reflection "A smart and succinct summary of those key decades in California that changed the way many Americans eat and view food. I'm so glad that Joyce Goldstein has put this special history together; she's the one to have done it." -Deborah Madison, founding chef at Greens restaurant and author of Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone "Joyce Goldstein shows, in compelling, illuminating detail, that what we call California cuisine is simply California itself revealed: the land, the climate, a way of thinking and a way of living made manifest on a plate. Her research is thorough, her ear impeccable, and her storytelling enthralling. This is a glorious and - dare one say it - delicious book." -Gerald Asher, former wine editor of Gourmet, and author of A Vineyard in my Glass and A Carafe of Red "This book is a must read for anyone who cares about food and its ability to influence and inspire community building and change. A new generation now has a deeper understanding of how to take the movement even further, to push the limits of flavor, seasonality, locality, authenticity and freshness. Simply Delicious!" -Sam Mogannam, coauthor of Bi-Rite Market's Eat Good Food "This is an impeccably detailed account of one of our country's most influential and enduring culinary developments. It provides insights into the California food movement that are enlightening even to some of us who lived and ate through it. One may disagree with some of the assessments, but this book is a valuable read toward understanding what went on and why, and how we continue to benefit from it." -Mimi Sheraton, author of The German Cookbook and Eating My Words: An Appetite for Life
