Description

FROM ST. HILDEGARD'S KITCHEN


The 12th-century Benedictine Abbess Hildegard of Bingen was blessed with an astonishing array of talents. She was, among other things, a mystic, naturalist, visionary, and composer. Hildegard was also granted, by means of heavenly visions, in-depth knowledge about human nutrition. She believed "foods of joy" revitalized us and helped preserve good health in every sphere-physical, spiritual, and psychological.

Now, famed French chef Jany Fournier-Rosset has mined from Hildegard's writings a collection of tasty recipes-you'll find everything from simple jams to chestnut soufflé, from spiced wine to Tunisian ratatouille. The book contains a measurement conversion table, cooking terms, special bread-making instructions, lists of ingredients with definitions, sources for rare ingredients used in the recipes, and an index.

Readers will also find a brief biography of Hildegard and table graces from Saint Benedict and others.

With a focus on good health and vegetables and herbs from the garden, From Saint Hildegard's Kitchen makes a wonderful gift for the cooks in your life. 244 pages, paperback

I absolutely love it

I absolutely love it. There aren’t really big glossy photos of anything, but the easy-to-read text is so full of totally unique and sometimes curious information. The cover photo is gorgeous. The book has a recipe for quick sour cream; honestly, I had forgotten that a person can make their own basics like that, rather than having to go for the grocery store processed version. Any Hildegard of Bingen fan needs this book, as well as anyone interested in medical history, nutrition, western civilization in general, mysticism… would make an extremely unique gift, with a potted herb or herb seedling set…
