Catalan Recipes – Culinary delights

The first cookbook, written in a Roman language, is written in Catalan and is named ´El Libre de Sent Sovi´, which is also the oldest surviving culinary text in Catalan. It is anonymous and, like the majority of medieval cookery books, is the product of a complex process of transmission, with multiple manuscript copies and readers who have left their mark on it. Successive cooks have recorded their own methods of preparing the dishes and recipes included, blending several culinary traditions in a single work. Since the moment of publishing this recipe collection in the 14th century, the local Catalan cuisine became an important part of the Catalan culture.

New York’s Forgotten Borough – Staten Island

Some people describe Staten Island as the forgotten borough of New York; it is certainly the smallest in terms of population but it is the third largest in terms of size and therein lies its attraction.
