Book Reviews

This isn’t just another farm-to-table cookbook; it’s an authentic taste of Vermont terroir. Jenna and Nora are homegrown Vermonters and expert guides through the wheel of the year, from spring’s first greens through winter’s hearty harvests. Lavishly illustrated with easy-to-follow recipes, the book is a joyous celebration of Vermont’s culinary landscape.

This book screams Vermont and all that encompasses. You feel the farm land, the forest and the people coming through every recipe and every photo. Truly a celebration of Vermont food.

The book itself is impressive — hard cover, clever design, glossy paper and Jenna’s photographs for each recipe. There are informative cooking instructions for each dish — a book to display that will last a lifetime.

The sweetness in the savory dishes achieved a perfect balance; the rich custard [of the maple bourbon crème brulee] was a delightfully mapley indulgence
