Allen Susser's New World Cuisine
by Allen Susser
Available from Amazon
$13.75
|
From Publishers Weekly
Taking the ingredients and methods used in Caribbean and Latin American cooking and applying them to traditional European and North American dishes is the forte of the author, owner/chef of the North Miami Beach restaurant, Chef Allen's. Trained in classic culinary technique (and raised on such Jewish specialties as kishkas and tzimmes), Susser refreshes familiar recipes with new ingredients, as in the Mango Tarte Tatin with Foie Gras and a Lobster Cassoulet, featuring conch, calamari and white beans, cooked with white wine, orange juice and zest. He surprises by using savory ingredients in expected dessert formats, e.g., Caviar Sundae with polenta, or vice versa, as in Mango Pot Pies with Praline Topping. Calling extensively on tropical fruits (guava, mamey, papaya, plantain, tamarind), vegetables (boniato, breadfuit, malanga, chayote, calabaza) and incendiary additions like Scotch bonnet peppers, Susser offers nearly 200 recipes sure to intrigue cooks looking for new frontiers. Some combos seem intended mainly to startle (Jerk Foie Gras and Charred Blue Mountain Coffee Burgers), but Susser's collection is indisputably innovative.

From Library Journal
Susser's restaurant, Chef Allen's, is one of those that have made North Miami Beach one of today's hottest food scenes. His "New World cuisine" combines his classical training in the French tradition with the ingredients and techniques of the Latin American kitchen. Tropical fruits and vegetables figure prominently on his menu, as do coastal and Caribbean fish: Rock Shrimp Beggar's Purses, Bonito and Wild Mushroom Gratin. Some of these creations are too exotic for any home kitchen, and ingredients like truffles and foie gras keep turning up; the headnotes are good, but the recipe instructions are awkward and sometimes confusing. For area libraries and other collections serving trend-conscious cooks.
