When it comes to food cities, Miami is one to take seriously. It is a
colorful culinary tapestry of local and international food traditions
with emerging new talents and James Beard-recognized chefs setting the
bar for adventurous, experimental, and exciting cuisine. Miami Cooks by
Sara Liss celebrates this wonderfully unique food culture with
seventy-five recipes by thirty-five of the city's leading chefs and
mixologists. Sure, Miami is the Cuban food capital of America, but it
also home to so many other cuisines--Peruvian, Venezuelan, Puerto Rican,
Haitian, Jamaican--that tempt the palate. From savory duck carnitas
tacos to a crab-crusted ribeye steak to a decadent caramelized
strawberry (and not to mention, an array of refreshing cocktails), this
book boasts recipes all designed for home cooks of all skill levels.
