Great to Read – Not So Much to Cook From I have mixed feelings about this cookbook – beautiful pictures and great writing. But, for me, not a very practical cookbook and not sure whether or not I will every actually use it to cook! Its not setup in a way where I could quickly find, say, a maindish that uses chicken or something like that. Also, it is full of ingredients that I am not sure I’d ever have access to being that I don’t live off the land/have no way to shoot a pheasant or a deer.
This book is part Minnesota travel guide, part coffee … This book is part Minnesota travel guide, part coffee table book, part cookbook, and all enjoyable. I have nothing critical to say about it whatsoever. I originally bought it as a gift for someone and then bought another copy for myself.
More Than Recipes Beyond recipes, this book takes a dive into the rich and, at times, whimsical culture of Minnesota. We love food, and we love a great story to go along with it. The recipes are also accompanied with beautiful images. Caution: food porn ahead!
