Quizás comer y beber sean unos de los grandes placeres de la vida. Todos comemos y bebemos, pero si podemos convertir esta acción en algo aún mejor, ¿por qué no conocer cómo hacerlo? El Arte del Maridaje no es un libro más sobre la asociación entre vino y comida. Javier Campo pretende hacer llegar al lector cuáles son los parámetros que utiliza un sumiller, —mejor dicho, los que ha utilizado él— en el restaurante para asociar, unir o armonizar una bebida con una comida en lo que se conoce como maridaje, más allá de las reglas estandarizadas y de los tópicos extendidos.

Amatriciana, pesto, ragù alla bolognese, lasagne, pasta ripiena, gnocchi. Siamo tutti convinti di conoscere alla perfezione come si preparano questi piatti, e cosa prevede “la tradizione”. Ma se scoprissimo che l'italianissima carbonara è nata negli Stati Uniti e che la ricetta “tradizionale" (guanciale, uova, pecorino, niente panna) è apparsa solo alla fine degli anni sessanta? E che invece le fettuccine Alfredo, considerate simbolo di posticcia cucina italoamericana, sono in realtà nate nella Roma dell'Ottocento?

Food snobbery is killing entrepreneurship and innovation, says economist, preeminent social commentator, and maverick dining guide blogger Tyler Cowen.

The food world needs to know that you don't have to spend more to eat healthy, green, exciting meals. At last, some good news from an economist!

Cider is the quintessential American beverage. Drank by early settlers and founding fathers, it was ubiquitous and pervasive, but following Prohibition when orchards were destroyed and neglected, cider all but disappeared. In The Cider Revival, Jason Wilson chronicles what is happening now, an extraordinary rebirth that is less than a decade old. Following the seasons through the autumn harvest, winter fermentation, spring bottling, and summer festival and orchard work, Wilson travels around New York and New England, with forays to the Midwest, the West Coast, and Europe.
