THE CASSOULET SAVED OUR MARRIAGE: True Tales of Food, Family, and How We Learn to Eat (coming from Roost Books in Fall, 2012) is an anthology of original essays about how we learn–and re-learn—to eat, and why our eating habits matter to our lives beyond the table. In these pages, 30 writers consider the people, events, and circumstances that have forged their relationship to food. There are no manifestos here, no how-to’s, and no step-by-step guides to better eating—though there are 30 terrific, original recipes. These food writers, journalists, parents, and chefs weigh in on the meals they make and those they avoid, consider the daily habits and practices that make up their family food culture, and reflect on what food means in their lives and for their families.
