From the publisher

CORY SCHREIBER founded Wildwood Restaurant and won the James Beard Award for Best Chef: Pacific Northwest. Schreiber now works as the Farm-to-School Food Coordinator with the Oregon Department of Agriculture and continues to write, consult, and teach cooking classes in Portland, Oregon.THE AUTHOR SCOOP

What are you working on now? Getting more Oregon foods into Oregon schools. What are some things that other people might not know about you?I love to drive fast on the high dessert, I would love to spend one month a year in silent meditation, and I am more sensitive then I let on to. What's the oddest meal you've ever had?Chicken feet in Boston’s Chinatown in 1986.When did you know you were a writer?Possibly when I was born with the name Schreiber, which means “writer” in German. Favorite dessert? Peach Tarte Tatin with Basil Ice Cream What's your most unusual kitchen tool?Fishing pliers to remove the pits from cherries Any memorable kitchen disasters?During a home economics class in high school we were making waffles and my foot tripped the wire and the waffle machine hit the ground with batter spilling everywhere. My friends thought it was funny because I went on pretending it never happened, much like later years in professional kitchens where I had no choice. This was an early sign of a chef. If you were an animal, what would it be & why?A brown Alaskan bear, because I would get to eat fresh salmon from a wild river

"Evocative...beautifully illustrated."—Diversion Magazine"More than just a cookook." —Sunset MagazineNamed one of the 12 "truly great cookbooks of 2000" by the —Asbury Park Press."(Cory's) cuisine is playful, witty, and refined, striking a balance between sophistication and approachability that will inspire cooks of all levels." —Charlie Trotter"It is rare to read a cookbook with such a powerful sense of place. This is not the story of what is fashionably new and hot, but what is connected to family tradition, a love of his homeland, and a fine palate to bring local ingredients to life in a personal way." —Joyce Goldstein"In both words and images, this book embodies what great cooking is really about." —Jasper White"This is food that touches the heart. It's sustenance that celebrates a spirit of place by weaving together the honest local flavor of terrain, climate, and generations of kitchen wisdom." —Rick Bayless"With its pictorial splendor, rich historical content, and enticing recipes, the bounty of Wildwood is tremendous." —Bradley Ogden
