I collect cookbooks - what else is news, eh? LOL
I have around 3,000 of them, in spite of donating 800 of them to the Goodwill this past year!.
Yeah, I read cookbooks at bedtime :)
Good dreams!
At Christmas, I sent Dishing Up Washington by Jeff Thomson to all members of my family and extended family, except for my Swiss aunts, they all got calendars.
Dishing up Washington, is one of those rare cookbooks where the recipes actually work!
I get so irritated when I am trying a new recipe and there are errors in it - grrrrrrrr!
Often it is just bad proof reading, but just a bad recipe is common enough, as well.
I am not likely to ever try their take on roasted bone marrow.
I grew up in post-War Germany, I am way too familiar with bone marrow.
Just the smell brings back such horrible memories!
And, the bone crunching, sucking and lip smacking by my aunts - I can still hear!
gag ...
But, I have made it roughly through half the book so far and been very impressed.
Lots of good seafood recipes.
And the mushrooms ones have all become favorites with me.
The 150 recipes are all by local (to Washington), some quite original.
