“It’s my hope that you will find something to love within these pages―that one of my recipes will become your own memorized specialty that you’ll add or take away an ingredient or two to create your own perfect meal. And I hope that meal―your meal―will be enjoyed for years to come by people you love. I want you to feel amazing each time you make it.
Truth be told, that’s the beautiful thing about food. I believe that when heart, soul, and creativity are interjected into a recipe, no two people will ever make it the same. Every meal is uniquely yours.” ―Danielle Kartes
Rustic Joyful Food: My Heart’s Table by Danielle Kartes Review
Sometimes when you pick up a book and just know from the cover that it’s going to be wonderful. Maybe you read the back and it just clicks with you. That’s what happened to me when this book landed on my doorstep.
The first thing that struck me was the intro when the author was sharing her passion and vision with the reader. She truly expresses her love for cooking and shares all of her heart and love for her creation with us.
As I was thumbing through the book I didn’t even get past the very first section of appetizers before I was saying “Oh, I’m gonna make that“ “Oh, that looks delicious“ and that continued throughout most of the book.
This book is a hefty volume loaded with amazing recipes of desserts, appetizers, beverages, main courses,soups, and so much more.
I love the pictures that showcase some of the recipes. I really love the fact that the author was able to incorporate her family and her husband into this project. You can tell that they absolutely love what they do and that shines through in her writing and recipe creations.
If you are someone who loves healthy, wholesome food, this cookbook is going to be one that will be the most used book in the kitchen. I know that’s what’s going to happen in my home. I already have some recipes tabbed.
Rustic Joyful Food is a creation from the heart loaded with passion for amazing food. The recipes Kartes shares with us will happily bring the family together around the table.
