Argentine cuisine is one of the world s best-kept culinary secrets. The country s expansive landscape includes tropical jungles, vast grasslands with sheep and cattle, alpine lakes, and glacier-studded mountains. As a result, a great variety of foods are available game, lamb, an incredible assortment of fish and seafood, exotic fruits, and prime quality beef. This bestselling cookbook highlights recipes from Argentina s nine regions, including signature recipes from five-star chefs, the author, and other talented home chefs.
Inside are sophisticated culinary offerings like Pavita Relleno a la Criolla (Roast Turkey with Persimmon, Sausage, and Jalapeño Stuffing) and Gaspado de Cazador (Game Stew with Wild Rabbit, Partridges, Quail, and Gin), as well as home-style favorites like Gazpacho de Mesopotamia (Raw Vegetables in Chicken Broth and Fresh Lime Juice). The chapter on Argentina s vintages will help you pair these recipes with the perfect wine.
