Notes about this book

  • robinorig on January 25, 2010

    I recently got this book and so far have been pleased with the recipes. I've tried the Clam Chowder, the Stuffed Cabbage, I'm eying the Shortbread Slice and Bake... I did make changes in the recipes (I always add my own seasonings, or look at several versions of a recipe and take the best of all or use what I have on hand or what's in season)... so I did change the seasoning in particular in the stuffed cabbage (added lemon & orange zest, added dried cherries, etc). What I like about the recipes so far is how straight forward and clear they are and the food is clean and delicious. I'm adding the book to my FAV listing.

Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Turkey chili

    • Breadcrumbs on September 09, 2012

      p. 215 One thing I’ve come to expect from chili is a highly seasoned, flavourful dish. This recipe is no exception though the seasoning did need a nudge to suit our tastes. Prep for this dish is quick and easy. At the point the chili was supposed to be done, it was too loose for me with lots of liquid. While the fresh flavours of the vegetables, especially the peppers shone through, I felt the dish was missing something and what it was missing, in my view, was chili powder. To be honest, this is the first chili I’ve made that didn’t call for chili powder. I have a medium hot version from The Spice House and after adding a heaping tbsp I felt all was right in the chili world and the flavours were balanced. I simmered the open pot for an hour before serving. This produced a hearty, flavourful dish that we enjoyed. When we have the leftovers, I’ll add some grated cheese as well. I’d make this again w the changes noted. Photos here: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/867395#7576000

      This is the third unsuccessful recipe I have made from this book (I made the others pre-Notes and I cannot remember what they were). This recipe had far too much sauce for 6 people. It contained 2 cups chicken stock, 1.75 cups port, 28 oz crushed tomatoes and it should have been 0.75 cups balsamic vinegar which I reduced to 0.25 cups given how strong (and expensive) balsamic vinegar is. The sauce was incredibly sweet from the port and I'm sure would have been worse with the full amount of balsamic. This is not a recipe I will be repeating.

Publishers Text

The beloved Boston Globe Cookbook, first published in 1948, has come back to life, reflecting the flavors of the twenty-first-century city. Revised and updated by Boston Globe food editor Sheryl Julian to include ethnic recipes and new twists on old New England favorites, this beautiful illustrated book is now available in paperback.


Included are recipes from the Boston Globe food pages as well as staples from earlier editions, all reviewed with an eye for reducing fat, leavening agents, and flour while introducing more veggie options. You'll find dishes you can serve at large gatherings, bring to potlucks, or leave to simmer for guests to help themselves. In addition to the well-loved Boston dishes, there are fresh recipes in recognition of the many new immigrant groups have settled here like Vietnamese pot-fried rice, and Greek spanakopita.


As Julian writes, “Every time you pick up this book, we hope you’ll find recipes that make you want to head for the kitchen and start cooking.
