Born and brought up in Crisfield on Maryland's Eastern Shore, Helen Avalynne Tawes (1898âe"1989) gained her knowledge of Maryland cookery as most Maryland girls did in those times: at her mother's elbow. As the wife of Maryland Governor J. Millard Tawes, she spent many hours experimenting in her kitchen, perfecting the familiar recipes and refining them for the busy modern homemaker.The result was a book, first published in 1964, that blended traditional favorites--from Sweet Pickled Watermelon and Mama's Chow Chow to Maryland Beaten Biscuits, Sweet and Easy Corn Pudding, and Panned Oysters--with elegant dishes served to guests at the governor's mansion, such as Maryland's Finest Crab Imperial, Diamondback Terrapin Soup, Superb Stuffed Shad, and Lady Baltimore Cake."The glory of Maryland food," says Mrs. Tawes in her introduction to the book, "is that contains an extraordinary number of flavors that are exquisite and individual--oysters, crabs, terrapin, clams, poultry, hot breads, game, and fish. ¦It is not the mere lavish use of rich ingredients that produces excellence, but an appreciation--precise, intense, and respectful--on the part of the cook, of the individual flavor of the food being prepared."This new printing of My Favorite Maryland Recipes should bring a younger generation what Mrs. Tawes wished her earlier readers "much joy in good eating."

Thomas Keller shares family-style recipes that you can make any or every day. In the book every home cook has been waiting for, the revered Thomas Keller turns his imagination to the American comfort foods closest to his heart—flaky biscuits, chicken pot pies, New England clam bakes, and cherry pies so delicious and redolent of childhood that they give Proust's madeleines a run for their money. Keller, whose restaurants The French Laundry in Yountville, California, and Per Se in New York have revolutionized American haute cuisine, is equally adept at turning out simpler fare. In Ad Hoc at Home—a cookbook inspired by the menu of his casual restaurant Ad Hoc in Yountville—he showcases more than 200 recipes for family-style meals. This is Keller at his most playful, serving up such truck-stop classics as Potato Hash with Bacon and Melted Onions and grilled-cheese sandwiches, and heartier fare including beef Stroganoff and roasted spring leg of lamb. In fun, full-color photographs, the great chef gives step-by-step lessons in kitchen basics— here is Keller teaching how to perfectly shape a basic hamburger, truss a chicken, or dress a salad. Best of all, where Keller’s previous best-selling cookbooks were for the ambitious advanced cook, Ad Hoc at Home is filled with quicker and easier recipes that will be embraced by both kitchen novices and more experienced cooks who want the ultimate recipes for American comfort-food classics.
