Sabores de América

Guía de plantas, libro de cocina y libro de historia cultural, todo en uno. Esta cuidada edición presenta diecinueve tipos de frutas y vegetales originarios del continente americano que hoy se conocen en todo el mundo. Entre ellos hay alimentos básicos indispensables, como las papas, el maíz, los tomates, los girasoles y las calabazas, además de sabores sin los cuales ya no se concibe ninguna cocina, como la vainilla y el ají. Cada capítulo une información botánica con la historia de estos cultivos e incluye recetas para cocinar en casa o en la escuela.

English

Flavors of America

Part plant guide, part cookbook, and part cultural history, this beautifully made volume introduces nineteen fruits and vegetables that all originated in the Americas and are now known around the world. Readers discover indispensable staples such as potatoes, corn, tomatoes, sunflowers, and squash, along with foods no kitchen could do without today, like vanilla and chili peppers. Each entry blends botanical information with the story of how these plants traveled and transformed global cuisine, and recipes invite families and classrooms to taste the history for themselves.
