Current Challenges

Foodies Read 2016

I know this blog has turned into a series of book lists lately, but I promise this is the last one for a while. I saw this challenge last year a little too late, but I think it’ll be a fun one to join. I love food literature and haven’t really been reading enough of it, so this will help clear some of those books off the shelf.

I’m doing the ‘Pastry Chef’ level, which is 4 – 8 books. The choices have to prominently feature food in some way, but aren’t bound by genre or format. It’s not a requirement to list any books before beginning, but it’s my favourite part, so here is my current food-related backlog from which I’ll likely be drawing:

  1. Under the Tuscan Sun by Frances Mayes
  2. The 4-Hour Chef by Tim Ferriss
  3. Secrets of the Best Chefs by Adam D. Roberts
  4. Encore Provence by Peter Mayle
  5. French Milk by Lucy Knisley
  6. Heat by Bill Buford
  7. Double Cup Love by Eddie Huang
  8. Fresh Off the Boat by Eddie Huang
