In this spirited little cookbook, Kathleen Purvis explores the history, mythology, and culinary star power of this quintessential southern liquor. On the scene in Kentucky, home to most bourbon makers, she reports on the science and love behind the liquor's long, careful production. Featuring both classic and cutting-edge cocktails, the cookbook ranges well beyond beverages to present bourbon as a distinct ingredient in appetizers, entrées, side dishes, and desserts.\u003cbr\u003eFrom Classic Mint Julep to Bourbon-Ginger Grilled Pork Tenderloin to Pecan Bourbon Balls to Bourbon-Chicken Liver Pâté, the 54 recipes in \u003ci\u003eBourbon\u003c\/i\u003e are punctuated by Purvis's wicked sense of humor. Did you know that even the taxman takes a cut from the \"angel's share\" that evaporates from bourbon barrels?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePurvis, Kathleen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003eKathleen Purvis is the author of \u003ci\u003ePecans\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBourbon\u003c\/i\u003e in the Savor the South series as well as \u003ci\u003eDistilling the South\u003c\/i\u003e, a travel guide to Southern craft distilleries, all from UNC Press.
