A Must for Cookbook Collectors Who Love Heirloom European Food 5 out of 5 stars.
14 of 14 people found this review helpful.
Cinagro Farm is a beautiful cookbook. It has a durable cardstock cover with a lovely picture of a barn on a Midwest farm. The lovely colors of periwinkle, forest green, bright orange make the landscape striking; and there's a cute red barn. It is secured by a green comb binding, which allows the book to rest open easily.
There are approximately 500 recipes on 250 pages. This recipe book in its first edition was released this year, but the author has been working on it 20 years. The book honors the ancestors of the author and her husband. It includes some heirloom recipes from the family's Norwegian, Dutch, German, Czechoslovakian and Italian backgrounds.
It has some yummy stuff in it, including Cranberry Bread, Swedish Meatballs, Corn Chowder, Italian Wedding Soup, Pesto, Garlic & Oil Pasta, Beef Brisket, Leg of Lamb, Chocolate Pecan Pie. Just thumbing through it will cause the digestive juices to flow.
This is a really neat cookbook. I hope that someday Carol will write a book in which she includes stories behind her recipes. She is a very articulate writer.
Although the heading of this review says the Cinagro Farm cookbook is unavailable, it is available through the seller. Check on upper right-hand side of the page.
Highly recommended!
Editorial Review:
Beautiful heirloom cookbook 20 years in the making! The book has 500 recipes spread across over 250 pages.
The author stresses eating healthfully using organic foods if possible. "Cinagro" is "organic" spelled backwards.
The book honors the ancestors of the author and includes some very old recipes from the family's Norwegian, Dutch, German, Czechoslovakian and Italian backgrounds. The recipes are easy, healthy and delicious.
The full-color artwork of midwest artist Sharon France graces the cover and all the dividers.
Truly a must for your collection. Makes a great gift!
Although Amazon is showing just one available to order [software constraints], there are actually thousands available. Feel free to order gleefully!
