The beloved New York Times bestselling culinary mystery writer
delivers a cookbook packed with more than 160 mouthwatering recipes and
charming anecdotes about her writing and cooking life.
Diane Mott Davidson is the author of seventeen bestselling mysteries
featuring caterer/sleuth Goldy Schulz, a woman who "took the lemon that
life had given her and made not just lemonade but Lemon Chicken, Lemon
Bars, Lemon Cookies and Lemon Meringue Pie." Each Goldy novel includes
recipes for scrumptious dishes from the adored character's kitchen. Now,
Davidson has collected these treasured recipes and some brand-new dishes
in one volume for the first time.
Here are recipes for Appetizers and Soups, Eggs and Cheese, Salads and
Starches, Meat, Poultry, and Fish, Breads, Desserts, and finally
Low-Carb Recipes (how Davidson lost thirty pounds and kept them off).
Most of the dishes came from "playing around with dishes tasted in
restaurants." Others are family favorites, some came from friends, and a
few are "happy accidents." At last, fans can enjoy delicious fare such
as Bacon-Wrapped Artichokes with Dijon Cream Sauce, Diamond Lovers' Hot
Crab Dip, Sweethearts' Swedish Meatballs in Burgundy Sauce, André's Coq
au Vin, Ice-Capped Gingersnaps, Damson-in-Distress Plum Tart, and Dad's
Bread.
Part memoir, part writing manual, part cookbook, Goldy's Kitchen
Cookbook combines the author's gift for storytelling with her skills in
the kitchen. She introduces the recipes with stories about how she came
to create them, anecdotes from her experiences as a writer and home
cook, and includes her joy at receiving a fan letter from the legendary
French Chef herself, Julia Child.
Full of irresistible food, Goldy's Kitchen Cookbook is a must-have
book for Davidson fans, food lovers, and cooks everywhere.
