The sensual legends related in this book could be the stories that gave Miami the spicy origin and vivacious rhythm that we know today. That rhythm attracts more tourists every year_ those who want to live adventures that throb, perhaps, to the same beat of the stories that were experienced a long time ago, when Miami was new.
The book is inspired by true events and it also includes illustrations of the legends’ characters, made by the author and inspired by photographs from circa 1925. The book also includes the found pictures of the real individuals, who lived these stories and inspired the legends, and historical reviews of the classic legends from different origins and their correlations with the legends of Miami.
The 116 recipes included in this book have a style that date back to the eighteenth century, through the early twentieth century when first European pioneers arrived. They left behind them recipes of highly refined dishes, unknown until now, that apparently were specially selected for use in romantic dinners. These dishes symbolized romance and were part of tasty games too; they are ideal to dazzle someone special.
These dishes, tested through generations, are also easy and quick to make. In some cases, they have a touch of the typical Miami flavors. In all cases, they include aphrodisiacal ingredients. Some of the dishes are, for example:
- Bruschettas with Au Gratin Scallops and Portobello Mushrooms in Cognac Sauce
- Humita-Cheese Stuffed Veal in Cranberry-Merlot Sauce and Sweet Potato- Leek Spanish Tortilla
- Tenderloin Beef and Mushrooms Brochette with Chive Butter and Creamy Spinach ; Brie Cheese Mashed Potato
- Amaretto Coffee Flavored Chocolate Mousse with Fresh Raspberries and Walnut Biscuits
The recipes also include hundreds of handmade ornamental illustrations, created by the author of the book, pictures of the food, and drawings of each one of the dishes, to show how to achieve a more professional presentation.
