November 2019 EYB Cookbook Club Summary

We have a helpful 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:

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

November may have been our busiest ever which is a testament to the love our members have for Diana Henry’s recipes!

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.

For past EYB Cookbook Club summaries, #EYBCookbookClub will pull up an archive of our club’s activities.

Now to this month’s highlights:

I made a number of dishes from this title including Baked sausages, apples, & blackberries with mustard & maple syrup and Chicken with miso, sweet potatoes & scallions where you can see photographs of these dishes.
