Dish or A Taste of Thyme

Dish: Memories, Recipes and Delicious Bites

Author: Marion Kan


She interviewed and became pals with former Mafia cook Joe "Dogs" Iannuzzi while he was in the witness protection plan. She shared an intimate meal with screen legend Sophia Loren at a small restaurant in Toronto's Little Italy. She visited the late Julia Child at her Victorian home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where the queen of cuisine cooked up a breakfast featuring her famous scrambled eggs.

And now, in Dish, intrepid Canadian food writer Marion Kane has compiled favourite columns about these and other culinary adventures and paired them with her best recipes. Read about Marion's search for Derbyshire's original Bakewell Tart, then follow her perfect version of this controversial sweet. Or dip into her story about Keith Richards and his penchant for Shepherd's Pie, a dish for which she shares a brilliant recipe.

A Taste of Thyme

Author: Margaret Goug

This cookbook is certainly more than a cookbook of long ago recipes. It is filled with humorous stories, mountain cures and kitchen aromas remembered. The author gives you a glimpse of her childhood memories in her Tennessee/Virginia dialect as she would tell it to you sitting in her kitchen. She wants to give you the gift of opening the door to your own happy childhood memories hoping they will bring back the laughter of the child in you stilled and perhaps forgotten. This author will have you reading her book many times over and passing it along for others to enjoy.
