Notes about this book

  • SugarTreeBaking on May 03, 2014

    This is one of my favorite cookbooks, my go-to for ideas and creative options. Anything I've prepared from these pages has always been delightful and crowd pleasing. Stand outs include Roast Pork Loin with Bacon and Rosemary, Chicken Cobbler with Cheddar Dill Biscuits, and Grilled Dates with Manchego and Bacon.

Publishers Text

One sunny summer day in 1987, Carrie Brown and John Werner happened upon an abandoned country store in northern California called Jimtown. Founded more than 100 years earlier, the Jimtown Store had held fast to its original building and its old-fashioned charm. Enchanted by its possibilities, Carrie and John decided to turn it into a new kind of country store: a gathering place for people to share simple, honest food in a beautiful setting.


The new Jimtown quickly became a favorite, offering exceptional main courses, soups, salads, sandwiches, sweets, and breakfast goods, all made from fresh local produce. Now, everyone can enjoy the dishes that have made Jimtown so popular, from sophisticated starters to their famous Pan-Fried Petaluma Duck Burgers, to such homey desserts as Apricot Butter-Rum Upside Down Cake.


Each recipe blends old-fashioned simplicity with updated flavors and a contemporary appreciation of quality ingredients Also included are menus for entertaining, cooking tips, colorful profiles of the local vendors, and original illustrations.
