Daniel Paterna's Feast of the Seven Fishes: A Brooklyn-Italian's Recipes Celebrating Food and Family is a timely reminder that a shared memory of food draws upon and enriches our souls. In Feast of the Seven Fishes: A Brooklyn Italian's Recipes Celebrating Food and Family, Daniel Paterna takes you on magical journey into a hidden world. Through recipes handed down in his family, stunning photos taken by the author himself, and three-generations of memories, Paterna reveals the soulful, humorous, and always delicious history of Italian-Americans in Brooklyn. Paterna is the real deal, a second-generation Italian-American, whose family has preserved their culture from the shores of Naples to the streets of Bensonhurst. He'll show you how to make long-forgotten recipes like stuffed calamari and he'll take you to the stores, restaurants, and bakeries where artisans are still doing things the old way. This is an intensely personal book that powerfully illustrates the essence of the American experience: the ways food, family, and memory are preserved and changed by the immigrants who brought them to our shores, and the children of those immigrants who keepthe flame alive.

This anthology examines how immigrants and their US-born children use media to negotiate their American identity and how audiences engage with mediated narratives about the immigrant experience (cultural adjustments, language use, and the like). Where this work diverges from other collections and monographs is the area is its intentional focus on how both first- and second-generation Americans’ complex identities and hybrid cultures interact with mediated narratives in general, alongside the extent to which these narratives reflect their experience. In a three-part structure, the collection examines representations, “zooms in” to explore the reception of these narratives through autoethnographic essays, and concludes in a section of analysis and critique of specific media.

There are no rules about how to prepare the Feast of the Seven Fishes. Some people cook seven courses while some prepare 12 to represent the number of apostles. Whatever, you decide to make though, one thing’s for sure Christmas Eve is a meat-free zone. Nonna Cooks for Christmas will take you through seven courses of Italian classic fish and seafood dishes perfect for your Christmas Eve feast. Welcome the family to the table with a selection of canap?s including Anchovies in a Lemon Marinade or Marinated Eel. Follow the canap?s with a Seven Fishes Seafood Salad; made with octopus, shrimp, scallops, calamari, scungilli, baccala, and mussels. Pace yourself though; you have another five courses to go! So don't opt for a heavy third course try our Crumb Topped Clams or Saut?ed Sole with Olives. Courses four and five and now we are really cooking with 10 of the best Italian pasta and stew recipes including the fiery Lobster Fra Diavolo and the iconic Baccala Stew featuring salted cod. The penultimate course proves that palate cleansers aren't just for fancy menus. This citrusy course separates the savory from the sweet with a zesty Red Grapefruit Sorbet or a Limoncello Gelato. The final course, dessert, deserves to be lingered over, and Nonna’s Italian recipe for Double Chocolate Rum Stuffed Panettone will really hit the spot. So, this Christmas Eve on December 24th sit down to a traditional Italian Feast of the Seven Fishes. Buon Appetito!
