Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Did you know that bourbon must be made in America and aged for at least two years in new American oak barrels that are charred on the inside? In this spirited little cookbook, Kathleen Purvis explores the history, mythology, and culinary star power of this quintessential southern liquor. On the scene in Kentucky, home to most bourbon makers, she reports on the science and love behind the liquor's long, careful production. Featuring both classic and cutting-edge cocktails, the cookbook ranges well beyond beverages to present bourbon as a distinct ingredient in appetizers, entrees, side dishes, and desserts.

About the Author

Kathleen Purvis is author of Pecans: A Savor the South Cookbook and food editor of the Charlotte Observer. In addition, she is a member of the Southern Foodways Alliance and the James Beard Foundation.
