ON SALE! If you collect Junior League Cookbooks, then you should have this one in your cookbook collection. If you are looking at it because it's a great cookbook from Minnesota, you're right--it IS a great hard to find cookbook!
ALWAYS SUPERB Recipes For Every Occasion
This is actually the 2nd copy of this cookbook I have in my store--this one has just a little wear to the cover from use and re-shelving--the other one is near mint--so that is why this one is a little cheaper.
The cookbook measures almost 9 inches wide by 10 inches tall with 288 pages. INSIDE the pages are at least 98% free from any writing, marks or stains--I couldn't find anything. Still a very good copy!
Good food is never out of season. Always Superb reminds us there is always a reason to entertain and then shows us how. In this collaboration between the Junior Leagues of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, the best recipes of the Upper Northwest have been showcased in sumptuous style against the stunning backdrops of the changing seasons.
There's something to be said for the cookbooks of the 50's and 60's, which would neatly outline an entire menu for nearly any occasion you might happen to find yourself cooking for. Always Superb - Recipes for Every Occasion (2003, Junior Leagues of Minneapolis and St. Paul) does just this. With a suggested menu for seasonal events such as Welcome to the Cabin and Foliage Picnic, Always Superb offers an array of simple, easy to follow recipes, which seem to echo many familiar dishes, often with an updated twist. The Crunchy Garlic Scones are a must, as is the Frisée Salad with Poached Eggs and Warm Bacon Dressing.
A unique feature is the addition of sidebars of trivia placed throughout, with tidbits on history, cooking and entertaining. This is the type of cookbook that you'll use over and over, a comfortable classic, It's a Wonderful Life of cookbooks, if you will.
REMEMBER----cookbooks are mailed via media rate mail to give you the best deal on shipping. The down side is that media rate mail can take up to three weeks for delivery!
