Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Spaghetti squash with jalapeño cream

    • lmhester on October 18, 2017

      I actually liked this recipe better when I served the leftovers. I'm just not sure about the squash and cheese combo . . . . I will say that I did not have Monterray Jack cheese and substituted the pre-shredded Mexican Blend. I also didn't have whole milk and used skim milk blended with half and half. It wasn't bad, but I might try some other spaghetti squash recipes before circling back to this one.

      I mixed the cheese in with the squash before adding the cream and I think this is better than a cheese crust on the top. It looked runny but held together. I thought that this was a great way to cook spaghetti squash.

  • Cashew, coconut, and pumpkin curry

    • peaceoutdesign on December 13, 2023

      This had lots of fragrant ingredients but failed on taste which seems odd.

  • Caramelized tomato bruschetta

    • Breadcrumbs on August 01, 2012

      p. 184 This is a newer cookbook on my shelf and the recipes I’ve seen thus far look wonderful, I’ve flagged a lot of recipes. I made a variation of this dish, electing to roast the tomatoes in the oven vs charring atop the charcoal grill since it was raining the day we were craving this. If the dish suffered in any way, we didn’t know it. The basil-infused fresh ricotta proved to be the perfect foundation for these super-sweet, caramelized gems. We had a little leftover and enjoyed them just as much the following evening. Wonderful summery dish. Photos here: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/799537#7498240

    This is a good one for anyone who tends to eat seasonally or has a CSA, and could use more ideas for dinner — and really, who can't use a few more ideas for dinner?!

    It's hard to knock Sunset's books. They're always so thorough and professional, bright and attractive. What they lack is personality. But with appealing recipes like these, it's a small niggle.

    What this book offers is an abundance of crop-specific recipes that will help you make the most of what's in season. It's less anecdotal than many recent eat-local cookbooks and more informational...
