What to read after Recipes From Many Kitchens?

Around the world, some of the most brilliant food minds are producing signature items like to-die-for strawberry pie filling, salt with handpicked herbs de Provence, melt-in-your-mouth chocolate honey truffles and creative combinations like parmesan prosciutto scones. In Recipes From Many Kitchens, Valentina Rice gathers 80 favorite recipes from her 26 favorite independent, foodie artisans. These producers often make just a few signature items, like chocolate or jam or cheese and their expertise in specific culinary areas yields surprising and exciting new recipes, unique flavors and standout dishes. Valentina already works with most of the producers, including Pipsnacks, a line of all-natural popcorns that was selected as one of Oprah's favorite things in 2012 and 2013; Schaller & Weber, the first and only American sausage and meat producer to repeatedly win gold medals of honor at the International Exhibitions in Holland and Germany; and The Brooklyn Roasting Company, a Fair Trade, Rainforest Alliance and Organic certified coffee roaster. The recipes will range from their specialties to chocolates, teas, oils, condiments, pastas, breads, sauces and more.
