I have questions about the pumpkin dip

Spectacular Spreads by Maegan Brown

September 24, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

Bingo 22: Getaway from South America I’m swapping my free space for South America mostly because I don’t really have the time to go find something that fits, since I haven’t got anything immediately in mind.  What I have instead is a cookbook, which I like to read both for fun and for use, by one of two board book writers I actually liked enough to try recipes from. It turns out that TheBakerMama Maegan Brown has at least two books out beyond Beautiful Boards, […]

Nostalgia Baking but for Whom?

Baking Yesteryear by B. Dylan Hollis

August 6, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

Bingo 10: Nostalgia The title Baking of Yesteryear kind of explains the fit for the Nostalgia category; this is what it sounds like, a cookbook of baking starts from each decade of the twentieth century up to the 80s. I’m guessing that the reason the 90s get left out is because that might be the decade the author was born; I could probably look that up, but why bother? Overall, this is kind of fun, but I also kind of wish there was a little […]

Plant-Powered Protein by Nava Atlas

May 28, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

I’m getting a little tired of the plant based meat substitute trends in cookbooks, which seems to still be going strong. Still, I picked up Plant-Powered Protein out of curiosity, and it’s actually got some interesting things in it. Two of the best parts is the review in an appendix of the nutritional properties of many plant-based meats that are becoming increasingly commercially common. It’s not a full nutrition label for everything, but it is a list of the major brands ,what they tend to […]

Now I know what my next food hobby won’t be

Home Cheese Making by Ricki Carroll

May 20, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader 2 Comments

I like food related hobbies; I’ve tried some candy making, soda making, and those are fun. Cheese making on the other hand sounds like it wouldn’t be worth it for me. I like cheese, but getting all the equipment and ingredients seems like a lot of trouble for a lot of cheese I wouldn’t be able to eat quickly enough and not be able to try new things very often. This is what Home Cheese Making has shown me. I know the process can take […]

Recipe spelled reciept

Cooking with Two Fat Ladies by Clarissa Dickson Wright, Jennifer Paterson

May 19, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

The Two Fat Ladies were something of a staple on BBC food tv, being entertaining comic interludes with a real emphasis on UK regional cookery that’s pretty traditional. However, this is not immediately apparent in the version of the cookbook Cooking with the Two Fat Ladies I found as it’s labeled “as seen on Food Network”. I don’t recall Food Network ever picking up this series, and even if they did, that does a disservice to the content of the show which is unashamedly old-school […]

When is 8 not really 8?

The Vegan 8 by Brandi Doming

May 19, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader 1 Comment

The Vegan 8 claims that it contains “100 simple, delicious recipes made with 8 ingredients or less.” This is not entirely true. The introduction says there are 3 free ingredients: salt, pepper, and water. This is fair, but then if you look at the recipes, there are many which actually either cheat by separating into multiple recipes that combine or try to suggest that things like black pepper corns and ground pepper are the same thing. It may be in the letter or the rule, […]
