Why Must Read Outlander Kitchen: The Official Outlander Companion Cookbook?
Ordering this I was expecting a cookbook that has a few recipes that go along with the books/show. If that was your expectation, prepare yourself for an amazing surprise. This is not only a cookbook that references the books, but takes the time to introduce you to the food, give historical reference to it, then walk you through how to make an amazing dish! So far I have become very fond of Mrs Fitzgibbon's Overnight Parritch. The Rolls with Pigeon and Truffles are better than potato chips -you can not eat just one, and the Broccoli Salad is wonderful! Currently the Strawberry-Balsamic Shrub is just about ready to drink. I am now planning on making every recipe in the book. The techniques are explained easy enough for those who may not be familiar, and a great refresher for those that may need to brush up on something. The recipes are made with some very familiar kitchen staples with just a few items that are not usual in most North American kitchens. This does not mean that you can not find the items used at a larger grocery store. Honestly, this has inspired me to not only read the series again (or in my case listen to them again) as I spend time looking for the perfect egg Coddler to purchase. The photography is stunning. So if you have not yet purchased this, stop reading now and do so!
