New Firefighters Cookbook or Art of Eating

New Firefighter's Cookbook: Award Winning Recipes from a Firefighting Chef

Author: John Sineno

John Sineno, a twenty-eight-year veteran of the fire department and an award-winning cook, is known as "Mama Sineno" because he looks after his firefighting "family" as if he were their mom. Though his days of putting out fires are over, he hasn't hung up his apron and continues to satisfy the appetites of his hardworking colleagues. In this new edition of The Firefighter's Cookbook, John shares old and new favorite recipes from his own kitchen and the kitchens of other firefighting chefs.

Firehouse cookbooks seem to have some sort of enduring fascination, and the first edition of this one sold more than 300,000 copies. Now Sineno, a retired New York City firefighter, presents those recipes plus 50 new ones, both his own and those contributed from fire departments as far away as Italy (the recipes from Rome come complete with wine suggestions). Although the recipes vary quite a bit, most are both cheap and quick to prepare. The collection is like a community cookbook of sorts, with headnotes and instructions in the contributors' own voices; there are anecdotes from Sineno and other firefighters as well. For most collections.

"Mary Frances [Fisher] has the extraordinary ability to make the ordinary seem rich and wonderful. Her dignity comes from her absolute insistence on appreciating life as it comes to her."

JULIA CHILD
"How wonderful to have here in my hands the essence of M.F.K. Fisher, whose wit and fulsome opinions on food and those who produce it, comment upon it, and consume it are as apt today as they were several decades ago, when she composed them. Why did she choose food and hunger she was asked, and she replied, 'When I write about hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth, and the love of it . . . and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied.' This is the stuff we need to hear, and to hear again and again."

ALCIE WATERS
"This comprehensive volume should be required reading for every cook. It defines in a sensual and beautiful way the vital relationship between food and culture."
