Produktbeschreibung

Wildflowers and Wooden Spoons is the second of three in Lucia's Wildflowers series and is a cookbook with stories from her childhood and the ten years she owned and operated a scratch kitchen cafe in South Florida. Lucia's cafe, Mother Earth Sanctuary Cafe, located in Lake Worth, Florida between 2007 and 2017, featured over 20 original veggie burgers, soups influenced by cultures around the world, a signature Mac and Cheese and other comfort foods as well as Lucia's signature sauces. Readers will find recipes from Lucia's Italian heritage as well as creative ways to serve pancakes, make edible candles and Ethiopian Honey Wine. "My cafe served a lot of vegan dishes but I did not limit myself to vegan or vegetarian food because I wanted to feed everyone. If you were a vegan, vegetarian or meat eater, I had something special for you," Lucia says, "And because I grew up in a working class family, I learned early how to make healthy, satisfying meals on a budget." The recipes in Wildflowers and Wooden Spoons highlight healthy, whole food, budget friendly dishes with stories that remind us how central and powerful "cooking with love" really is and that we all have our own kitchen magic right at our fingertips.

Autorenporträt

Patricia Lucia is a teacher, entrepreneur and public speaker who grew up in Springfield, Massachusetts and now lives in South Florida. She has a Master's degree in Creative Writing. She teaches high school English as well as nutrition and cooking to children and adults. Lucia grew up in a large Italian family and learned to cook at a very young age. Her early inspirations were her grandparents whose kitchen always smelled like fresh baked bread and herbs. Her grandfather who immigrated from Italy in 1919, was a baker by trade and had installed a full size pizza oven in his basement. Decades later, Lucia stepped away from her teaching job to open a tiny cafe in Lake Worth, Florida. Her menu began with a handful of comfort foods like Mac and Cheese and Shepherd's Pie and expanded to include up to 20 original veggie burgers, soups and sauces. She created a product line (Mother Earth Artisan Foods) that she distributed for three years to local farmers markets and grocery stores.After her cafe closed Lucia returned to teaching and writing. She hosts the podcast "Story Bridge with Patti Lucia", which focuses on the power of story, language and words and does speaking engagements.
