Allemang pairs each essay with easy, timeless (and occasionally eccentric) recipes from his own kitchen. They include dark mushroom risotto, ripe peach crisp, chicken with mustard and nuts, the ultimate mussels in wine, the redoubtable head cheese, and an Indian sweet he calls carrot fudge.
In his prose as much as his cooking, Allemang takes aim at our tendency to make food a burden, whether by treating it as a form of ostentation or as an occasion for guilt. In his life, and in this book, food is a joy.
