When Alberta cuisine is mentioned, beef is often the first and only thing to come to mind. In fact, however, Alberta has a wealth of local food products — from mountain to prairie, forest to river, this fertile province overflows with options for the creative cook.
Journalist and food editor Cinda Chavich has visited Alberta farms, dairies, bakeries, and restaurants looking for the very best Alberta has to offer. The result is a breathtaking book that combines delicious recipes, beautiful colour photographs, food sources, cooking and shopping tips, and local history.
