NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY REAL SIMPLE “I have never read a more passionate and heartfelt expression of Colombian culture and cuisine in English. I’ve been waiting for years for a book like this to come out.” –J. Kenji López-Alt, New York Times bestselling author of The Food Lab A recipe developer and food stylist—whose work has taken her across the globe to work with clients like Michelle Obama and into the test kitchens of today’s most esteemed culinary publications—pays homage to her native country with this vibrant, visually stunning cooking, the first dedicated solely to Colombian food, featuring 100 recipes that meld the contemporary and the traditional. To Mariana Velásquez, a native of Bogotá, the diverse mix of heritages, cultures, and regions that comprise Colombian food can be summed up in one simple concept: More is more. No matter what rung of society, Colombians feed their guests well, and leave them feeling nourished in body and soul. In Colombiana, the award-winning recipe developer and food stylist draws on the rich culinary traditions of her native land and puts her own modern twist on dishes beloved by generations of Colombians. Here are recipes for classics such as arepas and empanadas, as well as “Colombian-ish” recipes like Lomito de Cerdo al Tamarindo y Menta (Tamarind Pork Tenderloin with Mint), Gazpacho de Papaya y Camarón Tostado (Spicy Papaya and Charred Shrimp Gazpacho), and Cuchuco de Trigo con Pollito y Limón (Lemony Bulgur Farmer’s Chicken Soup). In addition to offering a unique perspective on Colombian food, Mariana shares the vibrant style of Colombian tablescapes and entertaining. For her, the best meals are never simply about the food on the table—they are an alchemy of atmosphere, drinks, and simple snacks and sweets that complete the experience and make it memorable. Rich with culture and stories as well as one-of-a-kind recipes and stunning photography, Colombiana is a gastronomic excursion that reminds us of the power of food to keep tradition alive.
Colombia es un país de diversidades que configuran una nación multiétnica y multicultural, con una gastronomía exquisita y variada, producto de mares, montañas y llanuras, cuyo sabor está marcado por las propiedades térmicas de los suelos; estas condiciones le imprimen a nuestra cocina su particular identidad. Identidad impactada, además, por las dinámicas sociales, culturales, ecológicas, económicas y políticas, factores que se evidencian en los contenidos de nuestro Programa de Gastronomía. Cuando se diseñó el Programa de Gastronomía de la Escuela Internacional de Ciencias Económicas y Administrativas (EICEA), la Universidad de La Sabana se propuso formar gastrónomos a través de una inmersión profunda y rigurosa por el estudio profesional de las técnicas culinarias de todas las regiones de la tierra colombiana. Por esto, debo reconocer el trabajo que ha conducido con excelencia el Profesor y Chef Carlos Gaviria Arbeláez, quien no ha economizado esfuerzo por presentar en detalle la clasificación de las técnicas de la cocina colombiana, y por realizar un completo inventario de las mejores e insignes preparaciones de la gastronomía de nuestras regiones.
It is hard to find a corner of the world where celebrations are not linked to food in one way or another. Sharing a meal, cooking special dishes, and eating symbolic foods are rituals-almost inadvertent ones-that are present in all cultures and that make up the gamut of what is known as culinary specialties or ethnic food. This 224-page book is a complete tour through Colombian cuisine, illustrated with 199 exceptional color photographs by Hans Doring that enable us to appreciate the succulent appearance of each dish and of its various ingredients. Due to Colombia's geographical and cultural variety, this country has a vast culinary repertoire that is deep rooted in its history: the native Indian and the Spaniard traditions finely seasoned at times by a pinch of African and by the various influences of immigration. This book is a treasure chest of more than 133 recipes form the diverse regions of Colombia, described with just the right amount of detail to obtain a perfect meal.
En Colombia, la cocina en hojas es un legado de nuestra cocina indígena, esto significa que, desde antes de la llegada de los españoles, la cocinera aborigen ya aprovechaba una gran variedad de hojas y con ellas preparaba diferentes recetas, muchas de las cuales durante los años de la Colonia fueron intervenidas por las cocineras españolas y africanas, y así contribuyeron al mestizaje y el enriquecimiento de nuestra cocina actual" (tomado del prólogo, escrito por Julián Estrada Ochoa). Por favor, quítese el mito que cocinar maíz, moler y hacer envoltorios es algo dispendioso, que requiere campo, que necesita mucha gente o que es de Navidad. Este libro permite que usted se acerque amigablemente a estas preparaciones y que, junto con las arepas, empecemos a cocinar nuestros amasijos con identidad y orgullo.
