200 Inspired Recipes from the Master of New World Cuisine
By Norman Van Aken
Norman Van Aken’s Feast of Sunlight

Following his James Book Award-winning Norman’s New World Cuisine, Norman Van Aken’s Feast of Sunlight was the first cookbook to address “New World Cuisine,” the regionally inspired marriage of the vibrant, sun-drenched flavors of the South, the Southwest, Latin America, and the Caribbean, informed by classic techniques of Europe and the Mediterranean. Florida’s most celebrated chef, Norman Van Aken, introduces 200 recipes for appetizers, soups, meat and seafood entrees, vegetables, and desserts. Included is a recommended reading list of influential cookery books, and a larder chapter provides recipes for a variety of staples to make ahead such as jellies, chutneys, pasta, and sausage.
