A Country Cook's Kitchen

This book embraces traditional culinary skills with a contemporary do-it-yourself spirit, covering all aspects of a country kitchen that has years gone by—the simple pleasure of baking homemade bread; preserving the harvest of fruit and vegetables from the backyard garden; the art of curing, smoking, and salting meats; the joy of churning butter; and many more old-fashioned delights. Author Alison Walker brings dozens of recipes and techniques to life in this beautifully photographed volume, breathing new life into the art of making heirloom foods. Hardcover, 192 pages.
