Library Journal Review

Chef and food writer Kiros's gorgeous cookbooks (Falling Cloudberries; Apples for Jam), with their evocative titles and dreamy photographs, aren't as well known here as they should be. For readers new to Kiros, this compilation of favorite recipes from her previous works provides an exquisite introduction. Organized by course (e.g., bread and breakfast, soups, seafood, desserts), it contains more than 130 recipes, including baked scallops, beetroot gnocchi, long-simmered veal with cream and dill, and poached fruit in vanilla syrup. A kitchen scale is essential. VERDICT Recommend this beautiful collection of classic recipes to readers who enjoy authors such as Diana Henry (A Bird in the Hand) and Katie Quinn Davies (What Katie Ate on the Weekend). © Copyright 2016.
