Summary:	"Acclaimed Chicago chef Paul Fehribach surveys the tremendous diversity of localist food practices across the Midwest. Fehribach focuses not only on present trends but on a cultural migration from the Ohio River Valley north- and westward. The book will feature many remarkable recipes-e.g., bacon fat-fried Turkey Red Wheat pancakes; delicata squash stuffed with hominy, dried blueberries, and chilies; roast duck with whiskey sauce, sour red cabbage, and turnips; strawberry pretzel gelatin salad; and many more-as well as profiles and descriptions of some of the chefs, purveyors, and farmers who make up the food networks of the greater Chicago region"--
