From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| In what PW called "a case study in bartering genius," Maria Lili's grandmother turns a dozen eggs into a favorite chicken stew; "Torres's text bounces with make-a-deal energy, while her light-drenched, calm watercolors convey a serene domesticity." |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| A mother and daughter go to the open market and barter a dozen eggs into a splendid chicken stew! The recipe is incorporated in the story.
This might seem like a girl's book only, but my son loved the book when we read it together in the Spanish edition. He was around kindergarten age, and a voracious eater with very accomodating tastes. (He's now a teenage acrobat in a professional circus, but he occasionally speculates about becoming a chef.) After we read the book, we actually went to the Latin American shopping street of our city, and searched for all the ingredients for the sancocho. Then we cooked it together. It was a grand father & son project and one of my most cherished memories. Plus the sancocho was really, really tasty!
Sancocho is a gumbo-like stew, a hearty meal in one pot, typical of the various "national stews" of Latin America and of provinces of Spain. The ingredients might be hard to find in some parts of the USA, but any decent chef will be able to make substitutions.
The Spanish language edition is called Sancocho de Sabado. |
