Cookbook Spotlight: Kitchen Sense
Tuesday, June 27th, 2006
I was so excited to be asked to participate in the Cookbook Spotlight for the new book Kitchen Sense by Mitchell Davis which is being co-hosted by Cath at a Blithe Palate and Sara at i like to cook. This is quite an extensive cookbook and I could write about many of the recipes but I will focus on my first dish, a Berry Crisp. The original recipe is called Apple Cranberry Crisp but I had a hoard of berries and other fruit from a trip to the Farmer’s Market so I decided to use those up instead.
The recipe is totally fail-proof and absolutely delicious. I served this on Father’s Day with some good vanilla ice cream. It reheats beautifully, keeping it’s topping crisp and can be made ahead of time and reheated.
In regards to the cookbook itself, it really has just about every recipe you could think of. From the basic to the exotic and unique, it’s all in there. I really liked how there are suggestions for advance prep, variations, and what to do with leftovers. My only dislike is that there are no pictures! But that will just entice you to actually MAKE the dishes! Overall, a very nice cookbook that I would recommend to everyone.
