New Prairie Kitchen: Stories and Seasonal Recipes from Chefs, Farmers, and Artisans of the Great Plains by Summer Miller
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
New Prairie Kitchen is more than just a cookbook, it’s a biography of people, community and food. Beautiful photos nearly turn it into a coffee table book, but it’s much more than that. Recipes that are easy to follow and dance on your palate fill the pages of this delightful book.
Now that it’s summer, it’s the perfect time for Heirloom Tomato Panzanella, and summertime salad that focuses on the rich flavors of quality ingredients. Make your own ricotta cheese and enjoy Toast with Homemade Ricotta and Fresh Strawberry Jam. Oh, my! If bread is your thing (it is mine!), try the amazing Honey-Oat Bread or Mushroom Focaccia with Shallots, Savory and Olive Oil.
Fall is coming and I have several butternut squash plants. Butternut Squash Pie with Cinnamon Whole-Grain Crust will be the perfect way to enjoy the bounty, or I can make the Potato and Squash Gratin. My mouth is watering and I can’t wait for them to ripen!
New Prairie Kitchen is a gorgeous cookbook full of recipes to love. Bring back that family time around the kitchen table and cook up a Midwestern feast tonight!
I received a copy of this book from Agate Publishing for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
