Riassunto:

Feast! is a guide to observing the seasons of the Christian Year and honoring the saints through real food recipes and thoughtful reflections. It's the perfect introduction for those who want to learn how to celebrate the liturgical year and special saints days with simple recipes and traditions. Feast! features 23 simple real food recipes for the liturgical seasons of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, and Easter, and well-known saints’ days like St. George’s Day, St. Rose of Lima’s Day, and St. Thomas Aquinas’ Day as well as less familiar saints like St. Charles Lwanga and St. Raymond Nonnatus. All recipes are gluten-free or have gluten-free variations. 18 recipes are main dishes, but also included are recipes for side dishes, cocktails, and a Christmas dessert. Feast! includes introductory reflections about observing the liturgical year: “What Is the Liturgical Year?”, ”Feasting with the Saints and Martyrs”, and “How Do I Get Started?” and 6 reflections on the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter, as well as some practical tips for observing these seasons in your home. With produce grown in their front yard urban garden, recipes created in their kitchen, and photographs taken in their dining room, Daniel and Haley Stewart wanted to honor the food traditions of Christians around the world and provide nourishing meals made from real, wholesome ingredients. Some recipes are inspired by the culinary traditions of the culture of a saint’s homeland (Ugandan Chicken Stew and Ugali for St. Charles Lwanga), the location of their ministry (Simple Garden Curry for Blessed Mother Theresa), a region particularly devoted to them (Shepherd’s Pie for St. George), or a meal that’s seasonal for their feast day (Stuffed Butternut for St. Martin of Tours). Featured saints days: St. Andrew, St. Nicholas, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Turibius of Mongrovejo, St. George, the Mexican Martyrs, St. Michael Ho-Dinh Hy, St. Charles Lwanga, St. Maria Goretti, Sts. Anne and Joachim, St. Michael and the Archangels (Michaelmas), The Chinese Martyrs, St. Raymond Nonnatus, St. Francis Borgia, St. Rose of Lima, Blessed Mother Theresa, St. Ignatius of Antioch, and St. Martin of Tours (Martinmas). Recipes include: Shepherd’s Pie, Tahini Tilapia, Simple Black Beans and Rice, African Chicken Stew, Christmas Stuffed Apples, Three Kings Cocktail, Baked Tilapia with Spicy Cilantro Cream Sauce, Lomo Saltado, Grilled Pork Chops Lazio Style, Rajas con Crema, Vietnamese Peanut Sauce, Simplified Pasta Pescatore, Fried Rice, Catalan Chicken Picada, Garden Fresh Curry, Michaelmas Roast Chicken, Simple Spanish Tapas, Mujaddara, Hummus, Stuffed Butternut Squash, and more! So embrace good food, honor the saints, and set your clock by holy time!

Informazioni sull?autore: Daniel and Haley are 20-something Catholic converts who married young (eight years ago) and still really like each other. They'vebeen blessed with three amazing kids under the age of five who bring joy and chaos to their lives. (Daniel and Haley haven’t had a full night’s sleep since 2009.) Daniel works full-time away from home and maintains their occasionally fruitful garden and always ornery flock of chickens. He enjoys running and knows way too much about Star Wars. Haley spends her days homeschooling their four-year-old, chasing babies, drinking coffee, and reading Jane Austen. She is also a free-lance writer and blogs at Carrots for Michaelmas.
