Book Reviews of Autumn from the Heart of the Home
Book Review: summer girl embraces autumn....with a little help.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to admit, I am a big fan of Susan Branch's books. There is something comforting about cracking open one of her new books and delving in. I don't know if it is the colorful, homey drawings, the short little asides about her family or her traditions, or if it is that the recipes are so easily made and delicious. I just love the books and "Autumn" is no exception.
I am not one that normally gets excited about fall, being a summer lover, but I can't help to love all the rich colors and fantastic recipes. This year I made the sweet potato casserole, which includes sherry and walnuts, and it is a favorite for our Thanksgiving celebration.
I have tagged the pages of recipes I want to try, and, well, let's just say it will take me a while to get through them all, from simple ideas, to more labor intensive recipes. Her recipes are simple, with ingredients that you know, and will find in your pantry more often than not. It is the kind of book that you will cook from often, like recipes that your mom has handed down to you for just good old home cooking.
I also loved the small section on halloween, and especially the halloween punch, with the highlight being the ice hands that you make by cleaning a latex glove, and pushing stemless cherries in the fingers and filling with water and freezing....make two she suggests, so that when one melts you have a new hand to throw in the punchbowl.
If you are a fan of Susan's or would just really enjoy a beautifully put together book, with quotes, colors and wonderful recipes, this is for you.
