Milton Crawford Bücher

Der komisch-kulinarische Survivalguide. Das Katerkochbuch versammelt die wirksamsten Katerrezepte der Welt - und alles, was Sie sonst noch wissen müssen, um den Brummschädel erfolgreich zu bekämpfen. Das körperliche Empfinden nach einer durchzechten Nacht gehört zu den letzten großen Grenzerfahrungen unserer Zeit. Aber ein Kater ist mehr als Schmerzen, Übelkeit und Selbstverleugnung: Er ist eine einzigartige Chance für kulinarische Experimente. Deshalb präsentiert der britische Katerexperte Milton Crawford über 100 erprobte Rezepte aus der ganzen Welt - von Klassikern wie Eggs Benedict und Bloody Mary bis zu arabischer Shakshuka, exotischen Lassis oder dem extravaganten Elvis-Presley-Erdnussbutter-Banane-Bacon-Sandwich. Doch das Katerkochbuch ist mehr. Als praxisnahe Einführung in die Katerologie stellt es alle relevanten Katertypen vor, enthält einen hochwissenschaftlichen Sehtest, diagnostische Fragenbögen und, nicht zuletzt, viele lehrreiche Anekdoten und Weisheiten glorreicher Säufer. Kurzum: Milton Crawford verspricht zwar keine Wunderheilung, garantiert aber jede Menge Spaß auf dem Wege der Besserung.

Whether it's a quiet glass of Chardonnay in a well-heeled wine bar or tequila shots at 2 a.m., drinking has a way of leading to hunger. All too often, we cave in to the booze munchies and settle for 7-Eleven fare or a dreadful diner. But there is another way. A better way. A Quick Couscous Chicken Biryani, Authentic Smoky Chicken Burritos, and even Spicy Thai-style Pork Burgers can be delectable and, more importantly, achievable with The Drunken Cookbook. Replete with satirical commentary on the vicissitudes of inebriation, The Drunken Cookbook also includes a series of tests to help the reader determine how drunk he or she is. Blessedly, The Drunken Cookbook takes into account the reader's intoxicated state and limited capacity to understand directions; safety warnings are a feature of each recipe, and risky techniques (like deep-fat frying) are excluded from the text.

The morning after a night of revelry often brings the dreaded hangover, accompanied by a drilling headache, waves of nausea, paranoia, guilt, and shame. While many are familiar with the general misery, the nuances of hangovers are less understood. According to P.G. Wodehouse, there are six distinct types of hangovers: The Broken Compass, The Sewing Machine, The Comet, The Atomic, The Cement Mixer, and The Gremlin Boogie, each with unique characteristics and requiring tailored treatments. This self-help manual assists drinkers in identifying their hangover type and provides recipes and remedies suited to their specific state of mind and body. With over 100 recipes, it includes dishes such as Huevos Rancheros, devilled kidneys, kedgeree, hot Bloody Marys, special mustard & cheese mash with sausages, blue cheese on toast with pears and pickle, lemon and demerara sugar pancakes, Knickerbocker glory with refresher sweets, and, of course, the perfect bacon sarnie. While it doesn’t promise a cure, this beautifully produced book offers fun and good food on the road to recovery. For those feeling ginger, it transforms hangover management into a subtle art, moving beyond simply throwing a 'full English' at the problem.
