Line up all these foods – eggs, cheese, mascarpone, fish, butter, cream, meat, seafood, fruit, vegetables, eggs, chocolate, seeds and nuts – what do they all have in common?
They can all be smoked!
Following the success of Bangers to Bacon, Jeremy Schmid takes it a step further with Smoked and demonstrates the wide scope of this age-old art of preserving food.
The aroma of wood smoke is hard to beat. Smoking units can be created for the stove-top, in a barbecue, or in a cabinet outside. Jeremy describes the difference between hot and cold smoking, explains wood fuels and spices to blend and balance the right level of smoky flavours, and uses step-by-step photos to show the process.
Jeremy Schmid has worked as a chef in New Zealand and in Europe, and did a postgraduate study course at the prestigious Culinary Institute of America in Napa Valley. He has developed an individual style incorporating a special interest in preparing cured meats and seafood. His first book Bangers to Bacon was placed third in the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards in 2012. Smoked is his second book.
