About this title

Synopsis:

A hot food trend for health- and ecology-minded cooks is preparing heirloom beans grown from seeds saved by our ancestors. High in protein, iron, and vitamins while low in fat, cholesterol, and sodium, beans have long been known as one of the healthiest food staples. Now we can all share in the bounty of these delicious and colorful beans that date back to early Native American cultures. Calypso Bean Soup offers dozens of tempting and easy-to-prepare recipes using such exotic varieties as Indian Woman Yellow, Painted Pony, and Rattlesnake beans.
Across the country, seed-saving foundations are working to preserve and grow the many precious seeds that have been saved, cultivated, and passed from generation to generation. Unlike the mass-produced beans we see on supermarket shelves, heirloom varieties are grown to highlight their full flavor and tender skins.
So that all of these delectable dishes can also be made with more commonly found beans, a substitution chart is included in Calypso Bean Soup.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
