<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>There is, I think, a pawpaw temperament; curious, engaged, humble. I have yet to meet a person who is drawn to pawpaws who is not a good person. --from Why Pawpaws? in <em>The Pocket Pawpaw Cookbook</em><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>"I have yet to meet a person who is drawn to pawpaws who is not a good person." </b></p><p>Pawpaws are found in the fleeting, honeyed weeks between August and October. They are fleshy and awkward to eat, sweetly fragrant, and they do not travel well at all. But they were once a favorite of Native Americans, and George Washington presumably loved them for dessert. Today, they are beloved by foragers, keepers of regional food traditions, and anyone seeking relief from the industrial food chain.</p><p>In <i>The Pocket Pawpaw Cookbook</i>, Sara Bir sets the humble pawpaw center stage, with detailed information on how to harvest, source, store, and―of course―cook with these uniquely midwestern delicacies. Here you'll find recipes for: </p><p>- pawpaw cornbread</p><p>- pawpaw pudding</p><p>- key lime pawpaw cheesecake</p><p>- banana-pawpaw ketchup</p><p>Sidebars address questions as varied as "Where can I buy frozen pawpaws?" and "How do I use pawpaw in a cocktail?" Written with humor and love for a curious subject, <i>The Pocket Pawpaw Cookbook</i> will inspire you to experiment in the kitchen and get out into the woods. With an introduction by Alexis Nikole Nelson, TikTok star and @blackforager.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The best cookbooks convey not only how to use an ingredient but why an ingredient is special in the first place. <em>The Pocket Pawpaw Cookbook</em> is just that sort of resource-- great recipes that makes me want to go foraging in order to cook them!--Abra Behrens, chef and author of <em>Ruffage</em> and <em>Grist</em><br>
