Illustrated by Warren Kimble Supper is a time for breaking bread with family, friends, and strangers who become friends. In Vermont, this means a tradition of communal eating -- church suppers, chicken barbecues, fish fries, turkey socials, potluck, and pie auctions. Country Suppers pulls together a neighborly collection of more than 125 recipes from supper sojourners, dishes that are easy to put together and delicious to partake of, like Butternut Squash and Apple Soup, Mustard Maple Glazed Lamb Chops, and Blueberry Cobbler. Ruth Cousineau's satisfying recipes are packed with country kitchen tips and wisdom and are accompanied by the captivating folk art of Warren Kimble, a world of oversized sheep and sleepy country towns.
We have tried many of the recipes in this simple-to-follow cookbook. No fancy ingredients, utensils or gadgets needed- just the good old basics used to produce favorite meals for the whole family. Delicious- from Apple-and-Onion-Stuffed Pork Chops, to Grandma's Potato Soup, Buttermilk Bread, and on through such desserts as Caramel Apple Pie, and Old-fashioned Chocolate Jumbles, the recipes are a success each time. A great gift for yourself or someone else (newlyweds, or a housewarming etc.)- it will actually be used and enjoyed!!!
Every recipe is a winner!
