Minnesota native Amy Thielen, host of Heartland Table on Food Network, presents 200 recipes that herald a revival in heartland cuisine in this James Beard Award-winning cookbook. Amy Thielen grew up in rural northern Minnesota, waiting in lines for potluck buffets amid loops of smoked sausages from her uncle’s meat market and in the company of women who could put up jelly without a recipe. She spent years cooking in some of New York City’s best restaurants, but it took moving home in 2008 for her to rediscover the wealth and diversity of the Midwestern table, and to witness its reinvention. The New Midwestern Table reveals all that she’s come to love—and learn—about the foods of her native Midwest, through updated classic recipes and numerous encounters with spirited home cooks and some of the region’s most passionate food producers. With 150 color photographs capturing these fresh-from-the-land dishes and the striking beauty of the terrain, this cookbook will cause any home cook to fall in love with the captivating flavors of the American heartland.
Horseshoe sandwiches, city “chicken,” hot dishes, Dutch babies, and of course Chicago deep-dish pizza—these regional treasures and more showcase the history and bounty of the Midwest. America’s Dairyland provides the country not only with milk and cheese; it also produces honey, corn, and over 14 billion eggs each year. These abundant ingredients find their way into many Midwestern dishes, from corn fritters to frozen custard. Different cultures influenced Native American and pioneer cuisine in the Midwest when immigrants brought dishes from Czechoslovakia, Sweden, and other parts of the world. Kitchen safety tips, easy-to-follow recipes, and a glossary of common cooking terms help guide young chefs as they cook their way across the rich heartland of the United States.
This cookbook is dedicated to all Midwest farm wives and small town church women who feed America's farmers with recipes that have been passed down by their mothers and grandmothers. While they have evolved over time, these Old Country dishes continue to be shared at church potlucks, social gatherings, and holiday dinners. It is with this thought in mind I have compiled these recipes. Some of them are classic treasures. Some may be new to you. But every single one reflects the love of good home-cooking that is so very strong in this beautiful country of ours. (Chef Gene Carrol)

When you think of dishes you can only find in the Midwest, a few things will immediately come to mind. America's heartland is known for its cheese, casseroles, convenience dishes and American staples done with a particular regional flair. And while the Midwest is full of these indulgent, quick and easy dishes, those aren't the only foods you'll find from Ohio to Nebraska. You see, the idea that America is a melting pot of different cultures and countries isn't applied just to the coasts. In fact, many Europeans settled in the Midwest in the 19th and 20th centuries, bringing their food along with them. Thus, ethnic dishes like piergoies, pasties, sauerkraut and Swedish meatballs aren't easily found in New York or L.A., but you sure as heck can find them all across the Midwest. So this book rounded up many favorite Midwestern recipes you can make in your own kitchen.
"Acclaimed Chicago chef Paul Fehribach surveys the tremendous diversity of localist food practices across the Midwest. Fehribach focuses not only on present trends but on a cultural migration from the Ohio River Valley north- and westward. The book will feature many remarkable recipes-e.g., bacon fat-fried Turkey Red Wheat pancakes; delicata squash stuffed with hominy, dried blueberries, and chilies; roast duck with whiskey sauce, sour red cabbage, and turnips; strawberry pretzel gelatin salad; and many more-as well as profiles and descriptions of some of the chefs, purveyors, and farmers who make up the food networks of the greater Chicago region"--
Why does the Midwestern region of the United States have such varied recipes? Who influenced their cooking, and when? Would you enjoy making some of their dishes at home? Middle-American cuisine is reflective of United States history in general. The country truly is a melting pot, where culinary contributions of many worldwide groups are included. Their cuisine includes influences from Latin Americans, Pacific Islanders, Europeans and Asians. They also have dishes that trace back to Native Americans, who first lived in the "New World" before settlers arrived. The Midwest, as is the case with other regions of the United States, was heavily influenced by the influx of settlers from all over the world. Germans introduced sausages, beer and sauerkraut. Italians brought with them native cheese and pastas - the British introduced roasts with potatoes and meat pies. The terrain and climate of the US Midwest are quite suitable for growing crops. Corn, wheat and many other vegetables and grains find their way into recipes prepared in the region. Many types of meats are served in the Midwestern region of the United States. Beef and pork are plentiful, and venison is preserved during deer hunting season. Poultry like chicken is served quite often, as well. There are many varied dishes in the Midwest. Try one soon!
