The Basque Table: A Cookbook

Rating:
Summary: A charming & captivating cookbook - it reads like a novel!
Review: The Alustiza family has a long background of cooking, ranching and basque culture in the Stockton, CA area. The Basque Table takes us to the Alusitza's table at their restaurant, through their past, through basque folklore and traditions. The recipes are always accompanied by throrough instructions and enhanced with anecdotes and illustrations that the author has included drawing from her extensive background in the antiques business. This is a personal work that entertains and educates - the food is exceptional as well.
