Speaking in Cod Tongues: A Canadian Culinary Journey

What is Canadian cuisine? Lenore Newman distils much of the current thinking into the erudite and elegantly readable Speaking in Cod Tongues . Her odyssey across the country provides a wealth of culinary detail, giving us a vivid contemporary portrait of Canada's complex and ever-evolving foodways. -- James Chatto, National Culinary Advisor, Gold Medal Plates A captivating work. Newman recognizes that our food is intrinsically linked to the land and the sea, where foraging and fishing sustained and comforted many generations. -- Barry C. Parsons, creator of RockRecipes.com As someone deeply connected with regional expressions of food culture in Canada, I know this book will occupy a special place in my library. The idea of an overarching national cuisine for Canada is as complex as the country is diverse. What a wonderful gastronomical journey of discovery! -- Jamie Kennedy, C.M., owner/chef Jamie Kennedy Kitchens See more
