Review
Raymond Beauchemin’s Salut! The Quebec Microbrewery Beer Cookbook is a much less elegant but rather more informative cross-promotional volume. The recipes require you to know more about Quebec’s microbreweries than most of us outside of Quebec will, but for someone like me who thought that cooking with beer either meant chili or getting drunk around the barbecue, it was a pleasant surprise to discover how many culinary uses beer can have. The book also provides a thumbnail sketch of Quebec’s brewing history and offers a cross-reference section that allows you to substitute non-Quebec beers. The former is honestly interesting and the latter is courteous and useful. Despite the fact that the author quotes someone who thinks that compared with beer “wine is more watery” and appears to believe that wine and beer are interchangeable as cooking mediums, he’s produced a workable and charming cookbook.

Book Description
Raymond Beauchemin has gathered together, or created, dozens of delicious recipes that use real Quebec beers as a main ingredient. Where Quebec beers are not available the book includes a "Substitution Chart" that lists beers from across Canada and the U.S. that can be used in the recipes. From the first serious attempts to brew beer in Canada by the Recollet missionaries who accompanied Samuel de Champlain in 1612, to the advent of microbreweries and brew pubs in the mid-1980s, Raymond Beauchemin presents the colourful story of brewing in Quebec.
