About this ebook

Kansas City chef and James Beard Award winner Colby Garrelts and his wife, Megan, a James Beard semifinalist for Best Pastry Chef, present a library of American culinary classics redefined by easy, chef-inspired techniques, quality ingredients, and a love for regional flavors from their Midwestern roots. Made in America features fifty handcrafted recipes sorted by the cooking methods commonly used in American kitchens from breakfast to the bakeshop. Many begin with a childhood memory from Colby or Megan that describes the roots and the journey of the recipe.

Suggested menus for festive occasions like Mother’s Day, Fourth of July, Back to School night, and Christmas are also included. Sidebars throughout showcase handcrafted cocktails such as the Bloody Mary, The State Fair, and the Pimm’s Cup that pair well with the recipes within. Love and pride are woven together to create a collection that defines the comforts of home.

    I got fat reading this cookbook. Yep. But that's a good thing. You know how it is, you buy a gorgeously photographed cookbook but when you get down to actually using it, you find that recipes are just too complicated or you need ingredients that you have to buy in a specialty food store. Not so with Made in America. It's real food. Stuff you would feed to your family and friends.

    This book reminds me of my mom's old Five Roses Flour cookbook, full of good homemade recipes (I miss that book...)

    The book features several different chapters, including "Daybreak", with recipes for hearty breakfasts. Too often our lives are so fast-paced that we've lost the art of making ourselves a good homemade breakfast. I'm going to make the German Apple Pancakes. Yummm!

    There are many old favourites in this book such as biscuits and gravy and fried cinnamon rolls but some new (well, new to me) different combinations such as "braised bacon with bourbon raisins, nuts and fried eggs." There are also beverages such as cherry limeade and cherry soda.

    I will quote from "Made in America": "There comes a moment, though, for most chefs, when you realize that while quality, technique and ambition are important, you never truly excel until you realize that you are cooking for your guest's experience and not for your self-absorbed personal expression. Cooking is about making people happy."

    There is a metro conversions and equivalents chart - yah! The fonts used resemble old-fashioned advertising and its so apropos for this type of cookbook. As a photographer I give the artwork a "two thumbs up" for simple but appealing photographs that make your mouth water. I definitely want the print copy to put on my counter. This book would make a wonderful gift for a new bride.
