A cookbook devoted to the family friendly, tailgate party
classic--featuring more than 60 tried-and-true recipes--from veteran
cookbook author and Americana expert Robb Walsh.
Americans love chili. Whether served as a hearty family dinner, at a
potluck with friends, or as the main dish at a football-watching party,
chili is a crowd-pleaser. It's slathered over tamales in San Antonio,
hot dogs in Detroit, and hamburgers in Los Angeles. It's ladled over
spaghetti in Cincinnati, hash browns in St. Louis, and Fritos corn chips
in Santa Fe.
In The Chili Cookbook, award-winning author Robb Walsh digs deep into
the fascinating history of this quintessential American dish. Who knew
the cooking technique traces its history to the ancient Aztecs, or that
Hungarian goulash inspired the invention of chili powder?
Fans in every region of the country boast the "one true recipe," and
Robb Walsh recreates them all--60 mouth-watering chilis from easy
slow-cooker suppers to stunning braised meat creations. There are beef,
venison, pork, lamb, turkey, chicken, and shrimp chilis to choose
from--there is even an entire chapter on vegetarian chili. The Chili
Cookbook is sure to satisfy all your chili cravings.
