2017 Cookbook Club Lineup

The 2017 book selections are announced, and we couldn't be more excited! This is going to be a adventurous and tasty year for the Cookbook Club with Meet & Eats featuring the cuisines of Cuba, France, Persia, Pakistan, China, and Macau. We'll also enjoy recipes from a local southern chef and a southern U.S. India-influenced one and enjoy gluten free and vegetarian nights. Check out the full lineup below.

What is Cookbook Club? Membership in the club is free, and we “Meet & Eat” the first Wednesday of the month. Every member brings a dish prepared from the featured cookbook and we all gather to discuss the book, the food and whatever else comes to mind! Benefits include a 20% discount off cookbook club selections and a giveaway at each meeting.

This Buddha Bowl recipe is compliments of Anna Jones, the author of A Modern Way to Cook, the book featured at our February Meet & Eat. Everyone was excited to be back together at World Spice, and the food was fabulous as always. We've already shared Saffron Apricots which was a favorite of the night, but the author also gave us permission to share this Buddha Bowl recipe, and we can't wait to try it.

Our March 2017 selection is Phoenix Claws and Jade Trees: Essential Techniques of Authentic Chinese Cooking. This beautiful book is the winner of the 2016 IACP Julia Child First Book Award and for good reason. Phoenix Claws and Jade Trees offers a unique introduction to Chinese home cooking, demystifying it by focusing on its basic cooking methods. We were lucky enough to meet the author and taste two dishes at the Tom Douglas Cookbook Social, and we were sold!
