Cookbook Club

About this event

@ If you like to experiment with new recipes while sharing your experiences, this club is for you! Using Bring It! Tried and True Recipes For Potlucks and Casual Entertaining by Ali Rosen as our inspiration, participants will make a recipe to share during our meeting. We will discuss what we liked and did not like, all while dining on prepared dishes. The word “potluck” may inspire memories of church dinners and mystery covered dishes. But today’s potlucks are essentially outsourced dinner parties, which make gathering around a shared table a cinch. Inside Bring It!, you will find dozens of impressive-looking recipes that come together easily, and are perfect for carrying to any occasion. Author Ali Rosen has put a long career in the food world to use, drawing on chef and restaurant secrets for easy dishes that will have friends begging for the recipe. Each recipe includes a note called “How to Bring It,” for make-ahead, reheating, and transport instructions. Flavors are designed for maximum impact, but won’t take hours to cook, or require special ingredients. Have dinner with the neighbors, sit down to a picnic in the park, or bring a dish to the school luncheon. They come together easily, hold well, and travel beautifully. They’ll have you rethinking the potluck. Copies of the cookbook are available for checkout at the Library. Free and open to the public. No sign up necessary.
