SUMMARY:Slow Books: "Coming to My Senses" (event full)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for wine\, hors d’oeuvres\, and a Slow Book discussion of Coming to My Senses: The Making of a Counterculture Cook by Alice Waters.\nLisa Hunter’s home\, Healdsburg (address will be sent upon registration)\nPlease bring an hors d’oeuvre and beverage to share.\nThere is no charge for this event\, but space is limited. Please RSVP to Slow Food Sonoma County North\n\nWhat Is Slow Books?\nSlow Books is a series of discussions of food-related books written from a variety of perspectives–chef\, critic\, consumer\, producer. Meetings are held every 6 weeks and are open to everyone with an interest in the current book. Books are chosen by the group. Hosting and discussion leader changes for each meeting \nComing to My Senses: The Making of A Counterculture Cook by Alice Waters\nWhen Alice Waters opened the doors of her “little French restaurant” in Berkeley\, California in 1971 at the age of 27\, no one ever anticipated the indelible mark it would leave on the culinary landscape—Alice least of all. Fueled in equal parts by naiveté and a relentless pursuit of beauty and pure flavor\, she turned her passion project into an iconic institution that redefined American cuisine for generations of chefs and food lovers. \nIn “Coming to My Senses\,” Alice retraces the events that led her to 1517 Shattuck Avenue and the tumultuous times that emboldened her to find her own voice as a cook when the prevailing food culture was embracing convenience and uniformity. \nDotted with stories\, recipes\, photographs\, and letters\, “Coming to My Senses” is at once deeply personal and modestly understated\, a quietly revealing look at one woman’s evolution from a rebellious yet impressionable follower to a respected activist who effects social and political change on a global level through the common bond of food. (Amazon)

SUMMARY:Slow Books: Discussion of Jose Andres's "We Fed An Island"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Slow Book discussion of We Fed An Island.\nThere is no charge for this event\, but space is limited. Please RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com. Once we receive your registration\, we will send you additional information and directions to the event.\nWhat Is Slow Books? \nSlow Books is a series of discussions of food-related books written from a variety of perspectives–chef\, critic\, consumer\, producer. Meetings are held every 6 weeks and are open to everyone with an interest in the current book. Books are chosen by the group. Hosting and discussion leader changes for each meeting. \n*We Fed An Island by Jose Andres\, with Richard Wolfe*\nThe true story of how a group of chefs fed hundreds of thousands of hungry Americans after Hurricane Maria and touched the hearts of many more. \nChef José Andrés arrived in Puerto Rico four days after Hurricane Maria ripped through the island. Andrés addressed the humanitarian crisis the only way he knew how: by feeding people\, one hot meal at a time. From serving sancocho with his friend José Enrique at Enrique’s ravaged restaurant in San Juan to eventually cooking 100\,000 meals a day at more than a dozen kitchens across the island\, Andrés and his team fed hundreds of thousands of people. \nBased on Andrés’s insider’s take as well as on meetings\, messages\, and conversations he had while in Puerto Rico\, “We Fed an Island” movingly describes how a network of community kitchens activated real change and tells an extraordinary story of hope in the face of disasters both natural and man-made\, offering suggestions for how to address a crisis like this in the future. \nBeyond that\, a portion of the proceeds from the book will be donated to the Chef Relief Network of World Central Kitchen for efforts in Puerto Rico and beyond.

SUMMARY:Book Discussion: Field Days: A Year of Farming\, Eating\, and Drinking Wine in California
DESCRIPTION:Join us for wine\, hors d’oeuvres\, and a Slow Book discussion of Jonah Raskin’s Field Days: A Year of Farming\, Eating\, and Drinking Wine in California\nJoyce Ortega’s home\, Healdsburg (address will be sent upon registration) \nPlease bring an hors d’oeuvre and beverage to share. \nThere is no charge for this event\, but space is limited.  \nPlease RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com \nWhat Is Slow Books?\nSlow Books is a series of discussions of food-related books written from a variety of perspectives–chef\, critic\, consumer\, producer. Meetings are held every 6 weeks and are open to everyone with an interest in the current book. Books are chosen by the group. Hosting and discussion leader will change for each meeting. \nField Days: A Year of Farming\, Eating\, and Drinking Wine in California by Jonah Raskin\nSooner or later\, nearly everyone who cares about wine and food comes to Sonoma”—so begins this lively excursion to a spectacular region that has become known internationally as a locavore’s paradise. Part memoir\, part vivid reportage\, Field Days chronicles the renaissance in farming organically and eating locally that is unfolding in Northern California. \nJonah Raskin tells of the year he spent on Oak Hill Farm—working the fields\, selling produce at farmers’ markets\, and following it to restaurants. He also goes behind the scenes at Whole Foods. In this luminous account of his experiences\, Raskin introduces a dynamic cast of characters—farmers\, chefs\, winemakers\, farm workers\, and environmentalists. They include such luminaries as Warren Weber at Star Route Farm\, the oldest certified organic farm in Marin County; Bob Cannard\, who has supplied Chez Panisse with vegetables for decades; Sharon Grossi\, the owner of the largest organic farm in Sonoma; and Craig Stoll\, the founder and executive chef at Delfina in San Francisco. Raskin also offers portraits of renowned historical figures\, including Luther Burbank\, Jack London\, and M.F.K. Fisher. \nField Days is a heartfelt celebration of the farm-to-table movement and its cultural reverberations.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED-An Afternoon with Healdsburg Author\, Lia Huber
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a reading and discussion of Nourished: A Memoir of Food\, Faith\, and Enduring Love (with Recipes).\nLia Huber is a long-time Slow Food enthusiast and past board member of Sonoma County North. She enjoyed 5 minutes of fame when the Press Democrat featured her backyard Bodega Red potatoes during the time the board members were doing the first grow-out.\nShe has received acclaim for Nourished: A Memoir of Food\, Faith\, and Enduring Love (with Recipes). The New York Times calls Nourished\, “[A] charming foodie’s travel memoir…[Huber] is endearing\, engaging company and the reader roots for her success.” \nIt was a Buzzfeed Best Book of 2017: “Lia Huber’s Nourished is…deeply heartfelt\, exploring her journey toward using food to nourish physically\, emotionally\, and spiritually.” \nLia will read selections from Nourished\, followed by a moderated Question and Answer discussion. Books will be available for sale and signing.\nOur literary afternoon will include wine and hors d’oeuvres selected from the book’s recipes\, including \nGarlic-Lime Grilled Shrimp \nMelted Summer Squash \nGarlicky Swiss Chard Tartines \nGrilled Prosciutto-Wrapped Stuffed Figs \nWatermelon Agua Fresca \nTickets are $20 per person from Brown Paper Tickets.

From there\, Huber takes readers to the Greek island of Corfu\, where she learns the joys of simple food and the power of unconditional love; to a Costa Rican jungle house\, where she finds hope and healing; and finally to California’s wine country\, where she steps into the person she was meant to be and discovers her calling to nourish others.

SUMMARY:Slow Books: Discussion of Jacques Pepin's "The Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for wine\, hors d’oeuvres\, and a Slow Book discussion of The Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen\nValerie Pallatroni’s home\, Healdsburg (address will be sent upon registration) \nPlease bring an hors d’oeuvre and beverage to share. \nThere is no charge for this event\, but space is limited. Please RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com \n\nWhat Is Slow Books?\nSlow Books is a series of discussions of food-related books written from a variety of perspectives–chef\, critic\, consumer\, producer. Meetings are held every 6 weeks and are open to everyone with an interest in the current book. Books are chosen by the group. Hosting and discussion leader will change for each meeting. \nThe Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen by Jacques Pepin\nIn this captivating memoir\, the man whom Julia Child has called “the best chef in America” tells the story of his rise from a frightened apprentice in an exacting Old World kitchen to an Emmy Award–winning superstar who taught millions of Americans how to cook and shaped the nation’s tastes in the bargain. \nWe see young Jacques as a homesick six-year-old boy in war-ravaged France\, working on a farm in exchange for food\, dodging bombs\, and bearing witness as German soldiers capture his father\, a fighter in the Resistance. Soon Jacques is caught up in the hurly-burly action of his mother’s café\, where he proves a natural. He endures a literal trial by fire and works his way up the ladder in the feudal system of France’s most famous restaurant\, finally becoming Charles de Gaulle’s personal chef\, watching the world being refashioned from the other side of the kitchen door. \nWhen he comes to America\, Jacques immediately falls in with a small group of as-yet-unknown food lovers\, including Craig Claiborne\, James Beard\, and Julia Child\, whose adventures redefine American food. \n“The Apprentice” is the poignant and sometimes funny tale of a boy’s coming of age. Beyond that\, it is the story of America’s culinary awakening and the transformation of food from an afterthought to a national preoccupation.

SUMMARY:Slow Books: Discussion of "Climbing the Mango Trees"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for wine\, hors d’oeuvres\, and a Slow Book discussion of Climbing the Mango Trees: A Memoir of a Childhood in India.\nShelley Witten’s home\, Cloverdale (address will be sent upon registration) \nPlease bring an hors d’oeuvre and beverage to share. \nThere is no charge for this event\, but space is limited. Please RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com \nWhat Is Slow Books?\nSlow Books is a series of discussions of food-related books written from a variety of perspectives–chef\, critic\, consumer\, producer. Meetings are held every 6 weeks and are open to everyone with an interest in the current book. Books are chosen by the group. Hosting and discussion leader will change for each meeting. \nClimbing the Mango Trees: A Memoir of a Childhood in India by Madhur Jaffrey\nThe enchanting autobiography of the seven-time James Beard Award-winning cookbook author and acclaimed actress who taught America how to cook Indian food. \nWhether climbing the mango trees in her grandparents’ orchard in Delhi or picnicking in the Himalayan foothills on meatballs stuffed with raisins and mint and tucked into freshly baked spiced pooris\, Madhur Jaffrey has enjoyed a life marked by food. Today these childhood pleasures evoke for her the tastes and textures of growing up. Following Jaffrey from India to Britain\, this memoir is both an enormously appealing account of an unusual childhood and a testament to the power of food to prompt memory\, vividly bringing to life a lost time and place. Also included here are recipes for more than 30 delicious dishes from Jaffrey’s childhood.

Please RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com \nSlow Books are discussions of food-related books written from a variety of perspectives–chef\, critic\, consumer\, producer.

Blood\, Bones & Butter follows an unconventional journey through the many kitchens Hamilton has inhabited through the years: the rural kitchen of her childhood\, where her adored mother stood over the six-burner with an oily wooden spoon in hand; the kitchens of France\, Greece\, and Turkey\, where she was often fed by complete strangers and learned the essence of hospitality; Hamilton’s own kitchen at Prune\, with its many unexpected challenges; and the kitchen of her Italian mother-in-law\, who serves as the link between Hamilton’s idyllic past and her own future family—the result of a prickly marriage that nonetheless yields lasting dividends. By turns epic and intimate\, Gabrielle Hamilton’s story is told with uncommon honesty\, grit\, humor\, and passion.

SUMMARY:Around the Slow Table\, Cookbook Version: Gjelina
DESCRIPTION:Do you like to try new recipes and share the results with a small group of friends? Do you enjoy discussing a dish’s ingredients and process of creating it? If you said YES\, then join us for dinner based on recipes each guest prepares from Gjelina: Cooking from Venice\, California\, by Travis Lett.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is how it works. Get a copy of Gjelina—the Sonoma County Library has both hard copies and a Hoopla electronic version\, and the host will share her copy. Just select a recipe that appeals to you and make enough for 10 people to have a small amount (a recipe that serves 4-6 people should be sufficient). \nKitchen space is limited\, so please bring a dish that doesn’t require last-minute preparation. \nPlease also bring a beverage to share. \nAt dinner you’ll get to know each other and discuss your experiences preparing your dish. You may also nominate your own favorite cookbook for another Slow Table meal. \nPlease RSVP to slowfoodsonomacountynorth@gmail.com. After you receive confirmation from us\, tell us what recipe you have chosen. \nThere is room for 10 people\, but if more sign up we may add another dinner location. \n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGjelina (silent “G”) is a casual restaurant in Venice\, California\, that is always packed. (The young chef\, Travis Lett\, says he wanted it to be the “ideal neighborhood joint.”) Recipes in his cookbook offer complex flavors and include lots of yummy salads and vegetables (like pan-seared romanesco with golden raisins\, tahini and sumac) along with pizza (mushrooms and truffle-studded goat cheese)\, pasta (spaghetti with anchovies\, red pepper flakes\, garlic and oregano)\, grains (wild rice with chorizo\, walnuts and pomegranate) and—for those up to the challenge—even make-it-yourself sausage.
