My Life in Gluttony: A Culinary Adventure (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780988919112)

A 2020 Gold Award winner from the Florida Book Awards. The notion of "living to eat" is no longer an admission of gluttony or a problem with self-control. It has, in fact, become a badge of honor. Author Jeffrey Spear reveals the way he has lusted after food and eaten his way through life. The book starts with indelible culinary encounters from his childhood home of Baltimore Maryland followed by some of the more interesting and exotic locations he has visited including Lebanon, Malawi, Buenos Aires, Los Angeles, Serbia, Russia and Paris to name a few. Spear's culinary storytelling is accompanied by recipes from each of these locations, allowing the reader to prepare and sample exciting dishes from around the world including Grilled Mouse (Malawi), Pizza con Tutto (Italy), Herring Wearing a Fur Coat (Russia), Bunny Chow (South Africa), Cha Chiang Mein (Hawaii), and Shopska Salad (Serbia) at home. Over 306 pages, including 96 crowd-pleasing and easy-to-follow recipes from the familiar to the esoteric, this book is a gastronomic delight.
