I am LOVING a cookbook that I downloaded online. It is called O Taste and See by Debbie Peck. I paid $5 to download the cookbook. (And another 10,000 AR to print it, but I didn’t have to pay shipping!) Although Debbie is American, she has lived most of her life in Africa and Europe (Germany and Italy). She currently lives in Italy–and we know how good their food is! You can check out the cookbook and other recipes on her blog: http://www.ciaofromdebbie.com/apps/blog/
At the beginning of the cookbook, she shared several secrets to cooking overseas. One of the secrets is to increase the flour in almost every recipe. I also have noticed that I need to add a bit more flour when making cookies. She recommends adding 1/4 C flour for every 2 cups of flour in a recipe. I had never seen that in print before, but it confirmed my baking experiences!
Another great thing about this cookbook is that all recipes are given in Metric and English measurements! How handy!
I am sure that I will post my favorite recipes from this book, but I really would recommend this cookbook to anyone!
