Book Description
From Library Journal
Although there are plenty of books on Mexican and Caribbean cooking, there aren't many on South American food and even fewer on the cooking of Chile. Umana-Murray, a Chilean who has lived in the United States for many years, pulled
together recipes passed down from her grandfather, aunts and great-aunts, mother, and other relatives and adapted them for the American kitchen. Beans, potatoes, corn, squash, fish, and chile peppers are common ingredients in Chilean cooking; some
recipes show the influence of the German, French, and Italian immigrants to Chile (as well as of the author's Southern husband and his family). Umana-Murray also includes a lot of descriptive background and history of a country and cuisine little known
to most Americans. Recommended.
