Book Reviews of Nantucket Open-House Cookbook

Book Review: One of my favorite cookbooks and I have a few hundred...
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great little cookbook. I bought my copy many years ago and everything I've tried has been wonderful.

One particular "sleeper" recipe that is probably my favorite in the whole book is the pasta sauce that isn't much more than tomatoes, onions, olive oil, and salt. Sounds boring, but tastes amazing. The beauty of the recipe is in the proportions and method. It doesn't sound like it would be very flavorful, but it will knock your socks off. Don't be tempted to add anything - it is perfect just as written.

I don't have a copy of her winter cookbook so I'm off to buy a copy now.

Summary of Nantucket Open-House Cookbook

Sarah Leah Chase, co-author of The Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook, knows that summer means long, lazy days of fun and getting together, of throwing the doors open and inviting over everyone you know for the pleasures of good company and good food. Now, cooks everywhere can create more than 250 of the recipes that have drawn hungry visitors and residents to her popular gourmet shop, Que Sera Sarah on Nantucket Island.

The author's eclectic combinations center on the freshest of seafood and produce, and induce hearty summer appetites to indulge in a unique chilled clam chowder, a fresh beachfront salad of Scallops with Orange and Chervil Vinaigrette, savory empanadas and turnovers, or a beautifully grilled bluefish redolent with lavender. Sumptuous meals must end with the proper desserts: an extravagantly rich Chocolate Bombe or a fruit tart glistening with a fortune of fresh raspberries and blueberries.

Complete with just-baked muffins and breads for breakfasts best enjoyed in a huge wicker chair and cool summer drinks for whiling away long afternoons, Nantucket Open-House Cookbook is for anyone who wants to make the most of fair-weather dining all year round.

Over 214,000 copies in print.
