Cook The Book Book Club'S CURRENT BO

---

In March our group came together to review 2 Cookbooks:

Indulge by Valerie Bertinelli

TOH Simple & Delicious Cookbook

What a great time we had!

Some members made recipes from both books to share.

They were very good with some adjustments.   

We gave Indulge overall 4 Star rating and the TOH Simple also received a 4 Star rating.

While everyone agreed the recipes from both books tasted very good, the TOH lacked some instruction details that would have been helpful however it did not effect the taste of the recipe.  The Indulge book had very clear instructions but one patron thought the Sausage and Olive bites were a bit dry however the group did enjoy the flavor and suggested maybe using the butcher counter Italian sausage as it might have more fat to moisten the bites and also maybe to use some of the olive juice to flavor the mix. 

The TOH Chocolate Orange pie was a hit but the group suggested not using store bought graham cracker pie crust as it lacked the taste to compliment the dual ice cream flavors.

Both cookbooks are recommended by our group and worthy of checking them out from our library.
