Kiss the Cook

November 7, 2012

We spend as much time browsing recipes on Pinterest
as the next girl, but sometimes, we’re in the mood to browse through a
gorgeous book instead. Here are three currently gracing our kitchen
table plus one on our wishlist, all by some of our favourite food
bloggers.


The Sprouted Kitchen
by Sara Forte isn’t as granola as the title
suggests though it does include a killer recipe for pumpkin pecan
granola. Everything we’ve tried has been a winner, from the Moroccan
stuffed squash to the fennel slaw, in an upscale take on cooking with
whole foods. www.randomhouse.ca


Those avoiding gluten are probably already fans of Aran Goyoaga of Cannelle
et Vanille
, whose new book Small Plates and Sweet Treats
reads like a storybook complete with I-can’t-believe-there’s-no-gluten
recipes. The easy, tasty baked lemon custards are on their way to our
regular roster. $20.68 at www.amazon.ca


Not quite as brand new it came out in February but also gluten free, La
Tartine Gourmande
by Béatrice
Peltre
whisks you away to mealtime in the French countryside (though
she currently resides in the US). The chocolate crepes, sweet potato
pancakes and cherry tomato clafoutis are some of our favourites, not to
mention the many desserts that will have you justifying a once-a-day
habit. www.randomhouse.ca


The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook
by Deb Perelman isn’t out till
October 30 and we’ve yet to see a copy, but we’re anticipating rave
reviews for the popular blogger’s inspired creations. Fans will want to
book tickets to Perelman’s talk and book signing on November 16, via the Cookbook
Store
; $40 includes a copy of the book. www.randomhouse.ca
