Book excerpt: There are many well-known recipes in Mexico and Columbia, but what about the unheralded tasty dishes of Nicaragua? The people of Nicaragua have plenty of their own treats and meals in that less-publicized country. In this cookbook, you'll find all types of recipes, using corn dough, rice, beans and many other ingredients. You simply don't find Nicaraguan food much outside the borders of the country. Even in-country, local food scenes vary from one village to the next. Their breakfast staples are frequently used in other meals, so you'll never know what to expect - unless you make the dishes yourself. These recipes will help you learn to prepare your dishes as they do in Nicaragua. Most modern dishes use ingredients you can find locally. Some older recipes contain wildlife and locally sourced vegetables, but they're not served as often as they used to be. Nicaraguans who cook for their families, as opposed to restaurants, often use every part of an animal, since it's expensive for them to waste any part. Richer Nicaraguans have a more international diet. But many people wish to preserve the traditional methods of cooking, which is what we'll be looking at in this cookbook. Read on!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food policy and practices varied widely in Nicaragua during the last decades of the twentieth century. In the 1970s and ‘80s, food scarcity contributed to the demise of the Somoza dictatorship and the Sandinista revolution. Although faced with widespread scarcity and political restrictions, Nicaraguan consumers still carved out spaces for defining their food choices. Despite economic crises, rationing, and war limiting peoples’ food selection, consumers responded with improvisation in daily cooking practices and organizing food exchanges through three distinct periods. First, the Somoza dictatorship (1936–1979) promoted culture and food practices from the United States, which was an option only for a minority of citizens. Second, the 1979 Sandinista revolution tried to steer Nicaraguans away from mass consumption by introducing an austere, frugal consumption that favored local products. Third, the transition to democracy between 1988 and 1993, marked by extreme scarcity and economic crisis, witnessed the re-introduction of market mechanisms, mass advertising, and imported goods. Despite the erosion of food policy during transition, the Nicaraguan revolution contributed to recognizing food security as a basic right and the rise of peasant movements for food sovereignty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout its history Nicaragua has been plagued by corruption, social and racial inequality, civil unrest, and foreign interference. Yet despite being the second poorest nation in South America, Nicaragua maintains a rich and vibrant culture that reflects its strong Catholic devotion, diverse indigenous roots, and overwhelming zest for life. Culture and Customs of Nicaragua introduces students and general readers to Nicaragua's unique blend of religious and traditional holidays, so numerous that the country is said to be in a constant state of celebration; its growing film industry; its many styles of dance, the popular street theatre open to all bystanders; important contributions to Spanish literature, local cuisines, architecture, social norms, and more. Readers learn what it is like to live in one of Latin America's most disillusioned countries but also discover the passionate culture that defines and sustains the Nicaraguan people.
