R. C. Gorman's Nudes and Foods

In Good Taste
By R.C. Gorman, Compiled and Edited by Virginia Dooley

The latest volume of art, anecdotes, and culinary delights offered by internationally honored Navajo artist R. C. Gorman includes a new collection of 45 drawings together with more than 150 new recipes. Featured recipes from R. C. Gorman's staff, family, and friends include Turquoise Margarita Pie, Green Chile Stew, Chinese Pot Stickers, Prize-Winning Turkey Wings, Tzimmes and Knaidle, and Frosted Grapes. In addition, R. C. Gorman's Nudes and Foods features the "Taos Table Section," short stories and recipes taken from the foods and customs of Taos and its surroundings. These include Venison Pot Pie and Elk Stew, recipes from The Palace Restaurant in Santa Fe and Villa Fontana in Taos, and Baby Lamb recipes from Gorman's Aunt Mary's sheep camp which tell readers how to cook a lamb Navajo style.
Like earlier volumes, it describes the preparation of many of Gorman's favorite recipes---an eclectic selection of offerings by friends and celebrity chefs, as well as traditional Navajo dishes and Gorman's own creations. Filled with anecdotes, descriptions, and exquisite full-page drawings, R. C. Gorman's Nudes and Foods is a feast for the eye, the palate, and the mind.
