This evocative recipe collection transports readers to the family kitchens, cafes, and markets of the archipelago, revealing a distinct culinary heritage shaped by the region’s geography.
The islands’ most beloved dishes celebrate local produce, familiar Mediterranean ingredients – olive oil and garlic, rice and fresh fish – and resourceful cooking methods passed down for generations. From Menorcan-Style Stuffed Eggplant, Baked Fish with Spinach and Swiss Chard, Black Rice with Cuttlefish and Artichokes, and Pork with Wild Mushrooms to Baked Figs, Almond Cookies, and Formentera’s most famous dessert, Fresh Cheesecake with Mint, the book’s recipes include both sweet and savory classics.

A lively and beautifully illustrated history of tea, one of the world’s favorite beverages, and its uses through the ages.
World-renowned scholar of Chinese history Victor H. Mair teams up with journalist Erling Hoh to spill the tea on this remarkable beverage and its uses, from ancient times to the present and from East to West.
This accessible and entertaining history of tea makes use of the Chinese, Japanese, Tibetan, and Mongolian annals to explore the subject in rich historical detail. The resulting narrative travels from the jungles of Southeast Asia to the splendor of the arrival of the first European vessels in Far Eastern waters.
Through the centuries, tea has inspired artists, enhanced religious experience, played a pivotal role in the emergence of world trade, and triggered cataclysmic events that altered the course of humankind.

APPLEWOOD BOOKS
Originally published in 1886, this collection of recipes and miscellaneous tips and tricks is a volume published almost entirely by women for women. The book was launched to raise funds for the women’s suffrage movement and to communicate—in the shared, common language of a cook book—that a woman’s place at the polls was not a replacement for her place at the home. Included in the long list of contributors are the names of housewives, doctors, political writers, and prominent suffragists of the time.
Contained in this volume are not just the instructions for preparing classics like “Rebel Soup,” “Election Cake,” or “Gravy as Mother Did it,” but also tips for plain living and high thinking. The final pages include a section entitled, “Eminent Opinions on Woman Suffrage.” The collective effort in compiling, publishing, and distributing this ground-breaking cook book bolstered practical skills for the women involved, and affirmed their ability.
