The Trade Wind Foodie: Good Food, Cooking And Sailing Around The
World

Product Description

The title of Rod Heikell`s latest writing only hints at this book`s content & coverage. Five years ago the author & his wife, Lu, set out on a circumnavigation & the opening part of The Tradewind Foodie is an account of the successive eastbound passages first to the Caribbean & then on through the Panama Canal to the Pacific, Australia & the Indian Ocean. There`s plenty of practical advice as well as entertaining asides in Rod`s inimitable style on the incidents that contributed to the adventure. Throughout, however, there is a slant towards provisioning, cooking on board & discovering food & restaurants at the numerous landfalls. Rod Heikell provides an extensive selection of tried & tested dishes in the second part of the book. Cooking at sea is an art & Rod`s selection provides a great range of recipes that are practical under most sea conditions. ” Whilst taking you from the Mediterranean on a whirlwind trip west-about the world, dealing with food & provisioning as they go, Rod & Lu also incorporate a surprising amount of interesting information into this book... Having successfully tried a few recipes at home, with their straightforward ingredients list & instructions, I would have no hesitation in trying the rest on board. This is a useful, practical book which also makes for fascinating reading...” Sandy Duker, Cruising Magazine.
