Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Cream of beet soup

    • twoyolks on October 05, 2016

      This was the best pureed beet soup I've made. The earthiness of the beets is there but it's tempered by the milk. I used 2/3 white chicken stock and 1/3 whole milk. I also added about a tablespoon of sherry vinegar which brightened the soup as a whole. I didn't add any extra cream because it was creamy enough already.

  • Beet and walnut salad

    • lkgrover on April 19, 2023

      I enjoyed the walnut crunch mixed with the soft beets. Remember to wear an apron and be careful of long sleeves when working with beets!

  • Broccolini with pancetta, anchovies, and raisins

    • lkgrover on July 25, 2024

      Loved the blend of sweet & salty in this broccolini side dish.

  • Cucumber and yogurt salad

    • lkgrover on August 09, 2017

      A simple cucumber salad, with ingredients I normally have. The yogurt makes it a cool complement to a spicy main dish. (I used plain Greek yogurt.)

  • Grilled eggplant

    • twoyolks on July 15, 2020

      Simply grilled eggplant. Decent enough, but nothing special.

  • Mashed potatoes

    • lkgrover on November 16, 2017

      Simple recipe for basic mashed potatoes; I made as written to accompany a chicken casserole.

  • Swiss chard with garlic and anchovies

    • lkgrover on May 26, 2017

      Delicious & easy chard side dish.

    Peterson dives deep into the details of the techniques, sadly at the expense of the excellent photography, which is mostly the size of postage stamps.
