Morning Glories: Breakfast, Brunch, and Light Fare from an Herb Garden

Rating:
Summary: Herbal Overload at Breakfast
Review: I find the recipes feature strange combinations of herbs and fruits, etc. that are more for effect than for taste. The desire to be original should not supercede having the food taste good. I found very few recipes that I would make for guests, even though I love fresh herbs.

Summary: Morning Glories gives you a reason to wake up
Review: If you're tired of the same old waffles, muffins,scones and cakes, give Morning Glories a try--I've only had the opportunity to make the Blackberry Thyme crumbcake, but it's definitely worlds apart from the same old coffee house fare--there are alos recipes for soups and beverages. The recipes are really easy, and I enjoyed the author's insights into problem herbs. Living in the Northwest, her Southern slant on ingredients and style is kind of like taking a brief vacation from the rain and clouds.

Summary: Perfect for the Gardener/Chef!
Review: Ms Kebschull Barrett does it again. If you enjoy herb gardening and cooking as much as I do, you'll find endless inspriation in this title as well as her earlier book, "Desserts From an Herb Garden". The applications for cooking with herbs stretch much farther than salads and main courses, as these books show with delicious imagination. I used a combination of both to prepare an Herbal Tea event recently; the recipes are easy yet have a subtle impact--my guests were thrilled with the effect (and the taste!).
