Overview
From the time that our primitive ancestors first prepared food over an open flame, the grill has occupied a special place in cooking traditions around the world. Today, whether it's a Punjabi tikka or a Texas barbecue, grilled dishes still provide a taste experience unlike any other.With over 120 recipes drawn from every continent, The Global Grill takes you on a unique round-the-world tour of grilled food. Try Argentinian Short Ribs of Beef with Chimichurri Sauce or, from the other side of the planet, Vietnamese Barbecued Duck Breasts. Travel to the subcontinent with a Sikh Lamb Kebab, to North Africa with Moroccan Grilled Chicken or to the land down-under with Barbecued Tiger Shrimp from Oz. And let's not forget American contributions to grilling, with recipes like Authentic Texas Barbecued Brisket of Beef and others.
With your kitchen grill or backyard barbecue and The Global Grill, you can sample the world's best grilled dishes, as well as a tempting variety of international accompaniments such as Zocalo's Tortilla and Lime Soup or Crab and Green Mango Salad or Grilled Radicchio with Parmigiano. To liven up an ordinary barbecued steak just add the flavors of Citrus Trio Marinade or Bourbon Barbecue Sauce or Chanterelle Butter. For the perfect finish to your grilled feast, try Grand Marnier Grilled Oranges or Indian Mango Sorbet.
