Reviews
Paula Forbes has created an amazing book that works for home cooks, food geeks, and culinary converts that, like me, believe that Austin's food scene is singularly phenomenal and delicious. Finally documented in all its glory, from Tex to Tex-Mex to BBQ and more, Austin's unique food scene has finally been captured for anyone to enjoy, no matter how far away they are from Hill Country., Easily the most colorful book of the season (yes, some pages are printed in millennial pink and we're not sorry about it) longtime cookbook reviewer Paula Forbes's first book is an enthusiastic love letter to her adopted hometown...the book can easily double as a restaurant guide., Austin has more than tacos and winning brisket. Forbes's extensive Texas restaurant experience comes through here as she brings in recipes from quintessential local haunts--including plenty of barbecue and Tex Mex staples., What rounds it out is Forbes's experience in restaurant reporting and cookbook criticism. She acknowledges differences in opinion while stating her own well-founded beliefs, explores long-held misconceptions, dedicates pages to brief histories of regional foodstuffs, and offers delightful asides from prominent Austin-based chefs. Through it all, she convinces the reader that eating (like she does) in Austin is a whole heckuva lot of fun., Paula Forbes provides everything you'll need to replicate the best barbecue recipes from the best barbecue joints in Austin (aka the best barbecue destination on earth). You'll still yearn to try them firsthand in the city she so lovingly describes. And that's just the first chapter., If you find yourself missing Austin, reading and cooking from The Austin Cookbook is the next best thing to hopping on a plane. From Bob Armstrong Dip to Sweet Potato Nachos, and Huevos Rancheros to Everything Bagel Kolaches, Paula Forbes shares beloved Austin dishes with a friendly voice and expert hand. I want to cook everything! And a tip of the hat also to Robert Strickland's lively photos, which beautifully capture the food and town's vibe so well.
