Notes about Recipes in this book

• Red cabbage, apple and pomegranate salad

  • debkellie on February 18, 2021

    I reckon the photo was taken before the salad was dressed, or a different dressing was used. The pomegranate molasses and balsamic vinegar made for a very dark dressing which IMHO detracted from the look of the salad, and really not impressed with the flavour.

• Cabbage dolma

  • mjes on August 29, 2021

    This is an old Swedish dish meaning that in the early 1700s it was brought from Istanbul - cabbage and potato rather than grape leaves and rice. Pair it with the turnip-apple salad and it passes as a luncheon entree. Solid Scandinavian flavours, easy to make, delicious to eat.

• Cauliflower soup

  • Indio32 on September 17, 2023

    Nice standard soup recipe.... didn't do the toppings.

• Two slaws: beetroot and blackcurrant

  • jenburkholder on November 25, 2022

    Very tasty, fresh slaw. Perfect use of the small amount of black currants left in the freezer from summer. We used a mix of vinegars - mostly raspberry. Made a nice sharp accompaniment to our cabbage fritters.

• Pickled beetroot

  • jenburkholder on October 01, 2022

    Very aromatic and tart. Quite good.

• Pink on a plate

  • jenburkholder on March 17, 2023

    Only made the fritters and sauce. Basic but delicious, and I will definitely use oats as a binder in similar dishes. Didn’t need quite all the oats and breadcrumbs with my (undoubtedly inexact) amount of beet.

• Apple, onion and potato hash

  • racheljmorgan on April 10, 2022

    This was a pleasant, hearty breakfast dish. The potatoes end up rather soft for a hash (at least from an American perspective). The dish was well seasoned and the coriander added a nice warming, almost charred taste that complements coffee well. The apples are essentially a root vegetable here, not adding any sweetness. They retain a bit of crunch, which I enjoyed. The index states cloves are an ingredient, but what is in the recipe is garlic cloves.

• Quesadillas with cheddar and kale

  • racheljmorgan on September 02, 2022

    This one was a little bland, but still ok.

• Cinnamon swirl bread

  • racheljmorgan on September 02, 2023

    This was a great bread, however I did run into a few problems baking it. The cinnamon butter filling melted out over the side of the pan, and at 35 minutes it wasn't nearly done. Because I had some things to do, I just turned off the oven and left it in for another hour. This ended up perfect. The texture is very soft but still heavy, reminds me of brioche. The sweetness level is middle-of-the-road. It's kind of a nice easy compromise on making cinnamon rolls in the morning.

• Eat Your Books by Jenny Hartin
