In Storm the Kettle, authors Elaine Feore and Joanne Goudie celebrate Newfoundland’s strong connection to the past with an eye to the culinary world beyond its shores, maintaining a centuries-old love of food and commonwealth, but, at the same time, infusing them with a contemporary sampling of recipes from around the globe.

We wanted to feature our province as an integral part of the book, because we feel that our heritage and culture still shines through in how we live and eat here now. It is evident in our laid-back lifestyle, our spontaneity, adventurousness and generosity. It is evident in how we open our homes and share our tables and our joy in every celebration. It is, to a large degree, this Newfoundland “spirit” that we want to share with readers. We want to remind readers that the value of relationships has not changed, and that sharing of food nurtures those relationships. ELAINE FEORE was born in St. John’s, Newfoundland. She is a self taught cook who ran a catering business in Windsor, Ontario before fulfilling her dream of opening her own restaurant, Elaine’s Fine Foods.

Present at the earliest recorded points of human history, it has been present at the height of sophistication and the depths of debauchery, an integral part of religious ritual and a free-flowing social lubricant. This new edition explores the tourism and terroir-driven global industry of today while reaching as far back as Ancient Greece and Rome. On the way it stops at significant points of wine history including the birth of Champagne, Venice in the 17th century, trade in the Middle Ages, and more.
