July 2019 EYB Cookbook Club

We have an incredible community here at Eat Your Books that has flowed into our Eat Your Books Cookbook Club and Sweet Eat Your Books Cookbook Club, places where we share our successes and fails in cooking and baking from specific cookbook titles.

This month we’ve been cooking from the following titles:

• Main selection: Milk Street: Tuesday Nights: More Than 200 Simple Weeknight Suppers that Deliver Bold Flavor, Fast
• Online selection: Milk Street online recipes
• Baking: Simple Cake: All You Need to Keep Your Friends and Family in Cake

See the bottom of this post for August and September options.

And, desserts are still being churned out in our second group that is working through Ottolenghi’s Sweet.

The photos below are just a few of the beautiful shots our members have been sharing; visit each group for more inspiration. Do not forget to also upload your photos and add your notes to your bookshelf at Eat Your Books. Instructions on uploading your photos and links to other helpful articles can be found here.

A few announcements before we share some highlights from this month’s options:

• Be sure to check out our 2019 Cookbook Preview Post!
• Please make sure you have entered all our giveaways.

 

Now to this month’s highlights:

This was a very busy month in the group with so many recipes being made from Milk Street Kitchen Tuesday Nights. I think Kimball’s next book will be a great choice for November this year: The New Rules (preorder now).

 

Bronwen V made the Maque choux from Milk Street Tuesday Night’s
The Maque choux was a very popular dish this month! 

Lisa S made Zaatar-roasted chicken

 Sharifah made the Spicy garlic soba with greens

Kimberly K made from Simple Cake: the chocolate orange variation of the tangy olive oil cake
