Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Buttermilk coleslaw

    • ellencooks on March 22, 2017

      I added extra buttermilk. Might cut back on the salt a bit next time. But it got rave reviews and leftovers were good at lunch.

  • Spicy zucchini-pineapple bread

    • ellencooks on August 23, 2022

      This was really good BUT.... the batter totally fills a regular loaf pan. Luckily I put a pan underneath to catch the spillover. It also took way longer to bake, almost another 30 minutes. But the flavor was excellent!

  • Grandmother Paul's red velvet cake

    • Sparkles75 on May 04, 2022

      Made this a few years ago. It got rave reviews but it was the first and only time I’ve made red velvet cake so don’t have anything to compare it with. It’s in my keeper recipes though so it must have been very good!

Nothing is more comforting than a home-cooked meal. And the best home cooking starts with fresh ingredients found close to home with foods that are local, seasonal, and organic. Raised in her grandmother's Southern kitchen, Katie Lee Joel comes from a "family of great cooks and big eaters." And she knows exactly what appeals to the home cook: recipes that are delicious, easy to follow, quick to prepare, and made with readily available seasonal ingredients.

In The Comfort Table, Katie dips into her archive of family recipes and updates all the classics from her childhood growing up in West Virginia, and also creates some inventive new favorites. This mouthwatering assortment of more than 125 recipes includes Southern staples like Fried Green Tomatoes, Chicken and Dumplings, Peach Cobbler, Meatloaf, and the quintessential Pulled Pork BBQ, which stand alongside contemporary classics like Roasted Carrot and Ginger Soup, Citrus-Tarragon Mahi-Mahi, and Dijon and Pistachio-Crusted Rack of Lamb.

But The Comfort Table is about more than just good old-fashioned home cooking. It's about sharing delicious, healthful meals -- made with love -- for friends and family. Katie's rich assortment of recipes for starters, salads, soups, entrees, side dishes, breads, breakfast, desserts, and drinks, is accompanied by entertaining tips and anecdotes to delight the modern foodie. The Comfort Table is a comprehensive, unpretentious, refreshingly accessible guide to creating unforgettable meals for occasions big and small.
