The Flavor of WisconsinThe Flavor of Wisconsin

"In The Flavor of Wisconsin, the late Harva Hachten explored "the taste of this place," pairing essays on the state's culinary history with recipes from Wisconsin kitchens. Now, in this revised edition, regional food specialist Terese Allen weaves the story of the state's magnificently rich food history to the present, introducing new topics and recipes and elaborating on others. Allen widens the lens to show how economic forces and newer phenomena -- including the explosion of farmers' markets; organic and sustainable farming; and the ever-growing interest in artisinal foods -- continue to flavor Wisconsin's foodways. With this expanded focus, Allen infuses the region's ingredients with new dimensions of meaning and consequence."--P. [4] of cover.
