Synopsis CHARCUTERIE focuses on combining the complex science of preserving pork with a deeply felt, almost ecstatic enthusiasm for the intensive process of creating a bewildering variety of smoked, salted, and cured delights. Along with discussions about safety, technique, and how salting actually works, there are recipes for 125 recipes for patés, sausages, and the many delicacies that go into a well-rounded plate of charcuterie. Recipes include Venison Terrine with Dried Cherries, English Pork Pie, Mortadella, and Spicy Smoked Almonds. Michael Ruhlman is co-author of THE FRENCH LAUNDRY COOKBOOK and has written THE SOUL OF A CHEF.
