Author James Norton and photographer Becca Dilley take readers on a culinary tour around Lake Superior, hitting high-traffic tourist spots and cultural institutions as well as off-the-beaten-path discoveries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNorton and Dilley also meet food producers and artisans--fishermen, cheesemakers, brewers, and more--and explore the culinary history and current food culture of four distinct regions. Along the North Shore of Minnesota, Norton and Dilley ride along with a herring fisherman struggling to preserve his way of life. In Thunder Bay and Ontario, the authors investigate the roots of the locavore movement in a remarkable conversation with an Ojibwe woman about native food. In the remote Keweenaw Peninsula of Michigan, the pair encounters a group of philosophical gourmet monks who make jam from foraged berries. And along the south shore of the lake, they talk with a Wisconsin cheesemaker and goatherd who takes his flock on a nightly walk--cocktail in hand. Alongside Norton and Dilley's travelogues are capsule reviews of restaurants, insightful tasting notes, and sidebars featuring important dishes of each region--from smoked fish and skillet-popped wild rice to pannukakku (Finnish pancakes) and cudighi (Italian meatball sandwiches).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShowcasing the wild beauty and rugged authenticity of the places and people along the circle tour, \u003ci\u003eLake Superior Flavors\u003c\/i\u003e is ideal for local foodies and for visitors who want to learn about food traditions through delicious eating and lively traveling. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Norton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0816675449\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780816675449\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Minnesota Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 7.90w x 0.80d","brand":"James Norton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44190579065087,"sku":"9780816675449","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c51224e8-adf2-431a-9fae-e61ee1c6f4ce.jpg?v=1690871282","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lake-superior-flavors-james-norton-9780816675449","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
