From Apple Pie to Pad Thai

Description

Boston’s North Shore has been called the Gold Coast, an image conjuring up mansions and red-jacketed equestrians. But the region north of Boston is also a melting pot. The region’s leading cooking writer chronicles the history of the region in recipes, profiling a cook from each tradition with his or her favorite recipes and holiday menus. Sidebars mention cooking tips and local restaurants and resources, and an appendix lists local markets, farm stands, grocerias, and other places to enjoy the meals and pick up essential ingredients for making the recipes yourself.
