{"product_id":"madeira-recipes-wanderings-on-the-atlantic-island-of-eternal-spring","title":"Madeira: Recipes \u0026 Wanderings on the Atlantic Island of Eternal Spring","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eMadeira's food rarely gets written about in English, which alone makes this book worth noting. The island's cuisine, shaped by Atlantic trade routes, Portuguese tradition, and its own subtropical landscape, shows up here through 21 recipes drawn primarily from Reid's Palace, the Belmond luxury chain's clifftop hotel in Funchal. There are guest contributions from Claire Ptak of London's Violet Bakery, food and travel writer Rafael Tonon, and chef Nuno Mendes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe guest recipes are among the most engaging. Ptak offers an upside-down pineapple cake that substitutes Madeira wine for the rum an American baker would typically reach for. Mendes contributes tuna steaks with melted onions and pineapple chili relish. Tonon brings mini espetadas—grilled meat on skewers that he connects to the churrascarias of his native Brazil—served with milho fritos, fried cornmeal squares seasoned with oregano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis is an impressionistic survey rather than systematic coverage, weighted toward what visitors are most likely to encounter. The headnotes have real personality, though the book is loose about making clear whose voice is speaking at any given moment. Nadine Ijewere's film photography of the countryside, harbor, and markets fills the space between recipes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eHardcover.
