Cook by the Book: Magnolia Table’s Chicken & Fettuccine Alfredo

September 8, 2022

Hello, friends! I'm back with another new recipe from a cookbook! This is my challenge to myself to pull those cookbooks off the shelf and refer to them when I'm needing a recipe rather than just automatically googling what I'm looking for. Not that there's anything wrong with using the internet or Pinterest! But I tire of looking at screens and I have a nice collection of cookbooks which I've either picked up at different vacation spots or received as gifts from family or friends.

Really, they had me at the word "mahogany" based on the idea of the color alone. The thought of a mahogany glaze made my mouth water, just imagining the tasty components that might go into it to produce a rich reddish-brown sauce! I skimmed through the ingredient list and had all ... Read more

Cook by the Book: Scotch Eggs

August 25, 2022

Ok, friends! I mentioned a few weeks that my friend, Missy, and I were planning something fun and here it is: COOK BY THE BOOK! On several occasions during the last few years, Missy and I have commented to each other on how even though we have such great cookbooks, the convenience of internet has caused us to fall into the habit of quickly searching the web for a recipe rather than perusing the pages of our now dusty cookbooks. Anyone else? So, we're bringing back the cookbook! We're setting a goal to use our cookbooks (culinary magazines count too) regularly and post our recipe reviews on our blogs. For my first cookbook spotlight, I'd like to introduce you to A Literary Tea ... Read more
