Valerie Hart's First Cookbook

As Valerie was writing her first book (she is also the author of The Bounty of Central Florida), I had just moved to Florida to start college. My memories of the cooking in Florida fortunately advanced past the college cafeteria and I was fortunate enough to sample some of the best cooking in America. In Valerie's cookbook, she includes a recipe for Lime Pie that reminds me of Key Lime Pie, but is made with cream cheese and she also has a mango version with dark rum and orange. Imagine a Mango/Orange filling in an Chocolate Cookie crust. There are also delicious recipes for Pecan Pies, Rich Chocolate Cakes and Brownies and a recipe for Cheesecake infused with orange, lemon and vanilla. Perfect for serving with seasonal fruits. The Suggested Menus are helpful as they show you which recipes work well together and how you should serve them. She has menus for picnics and parties, but also focuses on global culture and even has delicious vegetarian dinner ideas. Some of the delicious selections include: Stuffed Mushrooms Clams Oregano Shrimp with Herbs Chicken in Champagne Beef Stroganoff with Port and Brandy Leg of Lamb Provencale Barbecued Pork Roast made with ginger and apricot Squash Souffle Zucchini Bundles Wild Rice Ring Orange Chiffon Cake Banana Cake - two version Pumpkin Bread Grand Marnier Frosting Raspberry Souffle with Framboise Liqueur This is the type of cookbook you wish you had discovered years ago because it has all the recipes you have been looking for! Truly a collectible cookbook written with love and filled with comfort food and culinary sophistication. ~The Rebecca Review
