Synopsis

Illustrated by Warren Kimble

Supper is a time for breaking bread with family, friends, and strangers who become friends. In Vermont, this means a tradition of communal eating -- church suppers, chicken barbecues, fish fries, turkey socials, potluck, and pie auctions. Country Suppers pulls together a neighborly collection of more than 125 recipes from supper sojourners, dishes that are easy to put together and delicious to partake of, like Butternut Squash and Apple Soup, Mustard Maple Glazed Lamb Chops, and Blueberry Cobbler. Ruth Cousineau's satisfying recipes are packed with country kitchen tips and wisdom and are accompanied by the captivating folk art of Warren Kimble, a world of oversized sheep and sleepy country towns.

From Library Journal:

Living in Vermont, Cousineau and her husband often go out to potluck suppers, church suppers, or town meeting suppers. Here she includes her favorite supper dishes, many of them casseroles, stews, pot pies, and one-dish meals, as well as breads, vegetable sides, and pickles. Some recipes come from friends and neighbors, others are those Cousineau likes to cook when they have guests. There are also separate chapters on chocolate, pumpkin, maple, and fruit desserts. Cousineau writes well, and her book of homey, comforting recipes is recommended for most collections.
