Description: In A Taste of Switzerland cookbook, author Sue Style visits the country's best cheese-makers, vineyards, butchers, dairies, bakeries, and chocolate factories, talking with proprietors, vintners, housewives, and chefs, cajoling recipes from all of them.
Sample rich, dark, bittersweet chocolate cake, fragrant plum tart and apple strudel, risotto with wild mushrooms picked on an early- morning hike, fondue and raclette cooked on an open fire, rosti -- the quintessential potato dish, and sausages in all shapes and sizes, made from pork, game, and chicken. Swiss bread, the best in the world, is featured: rye flavored with aniseed, a soft buttery loaf, and a hearty farmer's bread made with wheat flour and potatoes.
Sue Style also highlights recipes associated with Swiss holidays and celebrations and introduces some of the country's underrated wines. John Miller's lush photographs feature harvest scenes, sumptuous dishes, and the incomparable Swiss landscape.
No visit would be complete without a tour of Switzerland's elegant hotels, known worldwide for their top-rated dining rooms, legendary service, and impeccable accommodations.
