The Food Heroes Book The success of any food culture lies in preserving its artisan foods. These artisan foods are the foundation of a food culture, and upholding them are the small scale culinary artisans who choose to make their products the traditional way, the slower way, and perhaps the less economical way, because they are passionate about their craft. The Food Heroes project chronicles the stories of the small scale mushroom hunters, sausage makers, foragers, cheese makers and chance takers. The people who make food a craft and a life’s meaning - the food heroes of our time. Join Georgia on her adventures across the world as she meets inspiring culinary artisans, learns their craft and shares their passion.
"FOOD HEROES" will be published by H.N. Abrams in Fall of 2010
The Girl Hunter Project Georgia teams with veteran hunters who take her over field and stream to “bag” the main course – and everything from Moose to Rabbit to Woodchuck is fair game. Then Georgia puts down the gun and heads into the kitchen to turn the day’s hunt into a delicious culinary masterpiece where she, along with a guest hunter/sidekick, produce intriguing dishes found in traditional old-world cook books -- recipes like succulent Jackrabbit Jambalaya, mouthwatering Woodchuck with Pasta, savory Porcupine Stew, and transcendent Turkey Tetrazzini. Follow Georgia on a fascinating, inspiring and often funny journey into the unexplored territories of haute cuisine.
