About Kate Heyhoe

 

"...when it comes to the green kitchen Kate Heyhoe is really the Green Goddess. A dynamic combination of Michael Pollan, Alton Brown, and Wonder Woman all rolled into one. After finishing this book you will definitely be convinced that you can help save the planet while preparing dinner every night." —Heather Jones, ProjectFoodie.Com, July 9, 2009.

 

Kate Heyhoe's Cooking Green: Reducing Your Carbon Footprint in the Kitchen—the New Green Basics Way (Hundreds of tips and over 50 energy- and time-saving recipes to shrink your "cookprint"), was published by Da Capo Books (Perseus Books Group) in 2009. Check out the New Green Basics website for more information.

Kate Heyhoe is editor and co-founder of The Global Gourmet. Here are three earlier books by Kate (click on each photo or title to learn more):

                      

A Chicken In Every Pot

A Good Cook Book Club Selection for April 2004.

"A Chicken in Every Pot belongs in every kitchen! This cook's tour of international chicken dishes offers innovative recipes and cooking tips galore. I love Kate's FlavorPrints, scattered throughout the book, with insights into the ingredients, seasonings, and techniques that give each cuisine its distinguishing character. With these globe-trotting recipes, I could enjoy a pot of chicken every night."

 —James McNair, author of the bestselling Chicken and thirty-nine other cookbook titles

Harvesting the Dream

"Harvesting the Dream by Kate Heyhoe and Stanley Hock is that rare book: It exceeds the high promise of its title. Its chapters, insightful quotes and interviews, and independent commentary cultivate and harvest the exceptional story of Sutter Home Winery and the remarkable Trinchero family. The authors substitute puffery and spin with frankness and candor that are most refreshing, reflecting the family's honest appraisals and realistic view of the world. All the chapters, especially Part III, are a must read for those who wish to understand the present and future dynamics of the globalization of the world of wine."

 —John DeLuca, Executive Vice Chairman, Wine Institute

Macho Nachos

This slim cookbook includes preparation tips ("no soggy bottoms!") and fifty recipes, including versions with chickpeas and chutney; Portuguese sausage and artichoke hearts; Thai red curry paste and peanut sauce; and caviar, cream cheese, and chives. The author, who grew up in Texas, notes that the French "would probably utter 'Sacrebleu!' to see a majestic monastery cheese such as Pont-l'Eveque or a delicately nutty Gruyere de Comte adorn a nacho. But don't let that stop you."

 —The Texas Monthly, January 2004

 

More Books

Kate is also author of A World Atlas of Food (McGraw-Hill, 2006), a culinary textbook for high schools, and Cooking with Kids for Dummies (IDG Books, 1999). Kate's books have been praised by Mollie Katzen (who also wrote a foreword), Martin Yan, Mary Sue Milliken, Graham Kerr, James McNair, Michael Chiarello, Marcel Desaulniers, and even America Online's founder, Steve Case, among others.

Artwork
