Critiques (2)

Critique du Publishers Weekly

While the world might not have been waiting for a book devoted solely to s?mores?the campfire classic composed of chocolate, graham crackers and toasted marshmallows?outdoor types might want to give Adams?s book some consideration before packing for their next trip. Offering over 50 riffs on the theme, Adams adds everything from mangoes and cranberries to popcorn to the basic recipe, as well as more inventive fare such as a Boston Cream Pie S?more, made up of strawberry shortcake cups, a marshmallow and chocolate frosting. Those with an aversion to graham crackers will find ideas incorporating everything from chocolate cookies to fresh apricots and even sliced Granny Smith apples to bookend their fillings. None of the recipes are going to win any culinary awards, but the recipes are simple to replicate, making them ideal for children and young-at-heart marshmallow lovers. (Mar.)

Critique du Library Journal

Want to know more about s'mores? Freelance writer Adams has come up with over 60 variations of the traditional campfire treats. No fire, no fear--ovens, stovetops, and even microwaves can do the job (although with decidedly less atmosphere). As for ingredients, choices include the good old graham cracker but also range far afield to cookies, croissants, pound cake, or sliced fruit. While marshmallows still seem to be de rigueur, Marshmallow PeepsR add seasonal variation. The simple Hershey's chocolate bar has a lot of competition as well. Here, the options include other types of candy, Nutella, cookie dough, even pumpkin pie. To really doll it up, add-ins are also suggested (e.g., candy canes, fresh fruit, and popcorn). Lots of luscious color pictures let you see the presentations. Overall, a fun and attractive book, guaranteed to bring out your inner Camp Fire Girl or Boy Scout.

Extraits

S'mores: Gourmet Treats for Every Occasion By Lisa Adams Gibbs Smith, Publisher ISBN: 9781423600916 milky way melt With its fluffy nougat and caramel, this creamy s'more may launch you right out of this world. 4 Milky Way Minis, regular or dark1 graham cracker, broken in half1 marshmallow Distribute the Milky Way Minis evenly on half of the graham cracker and melt (see page 15). Because the chocolate is thinner than a regular chocolate bar, you won't need to heat your s'more as long as usual. Roast the marshmallow.When candy bar pieces are sufficiently gooey, remove graham cracker from heat, add roasted marshmallow and top with remaining graham cracker. variations: You can also, of course, make this s'more with a graham cracker-size piece of a standard Milky Way bar. I prefer the bite-size Minis because they are easier to spread evenly over the graham cracker, and I like mixing the light and dark varieties in the same s'more. But the essential flavor can be achieved either way. If you don't want quite so much nougat, you can use 2 Milky Way Minis and fill in the rest of the graham cracker with regular chocolate bar pieces.
