Book excerpt: South America still conjures images of the Andes, the Amazon, and Patagonia, to be sure, but today it is also known for its remarkably varied cuisines—which, along with its value-driven quality wines, have taken gourmands well beyond Mexico and Latin America. Enter Knack South American Cooking, a visually sumptuous and informative, step-by-step guide to recreating the continent’s predominant authentic flavors in the home kitchen. Covering Peru, Brazil, and countries further south, such as Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay, it brings together 350 savory recipes—everything from ceviche to creamy yucca prawns, as well as grilled meats and classic dishes like hearty black bean stew. 350 full-color photos -100 recipes -250 variations Appetizers * Empanadas * Stews * Salads & Vegetables * Poultry * Beef * Pork * Seafood Grilled Meats * Sauces * Desserts
