Clinton St. Baking Company Cookbook Review and Giveaway

The Clinton St. Baking Company is one of the hottest brunch spots in a city obsessed with brunch. A tiny thirty-two-seat eatery on Manhattan’s trendy Lower East Side, the restaurant draws long lines of customers who come from far and wide to sample fresh-baked goods, hearty omelets, sugar-cured bacon, and light-as-air pancakes with maple butter.

In the Clinton St. Baking Company Cookbook, owners DeDe Lahman and Neil Kleinberg share more than 100 treasured recipes that have made their restaurant a sensation. Learn the secret to their house-made buttermilk biscuits and tomato jam, irresistible muffins and scones, delicious soups and sandwiches, and their decadent, eye-catching desserts. Helpful techniques, like Neil’s patented omelet “flip and tuck,” and gorgeous color photographs throughout will have readers cooking like pros in no time, and sharing the delicious results.

“This book has the kind of recipes generations of food obsessed families pass down to each other and guard like family secrets.” —Wylie Dufresne, chef/owner, wd~50

If you have been following my blog then you know we have left the box, and frozen meals behind us, and I have taken up to cooking from cookbooks. This is a lot healthier for my family, and it seems to be cheaper.

Recently, I got to review Clinton St. Baking Company Cookbook. So far I have made a few things from this book, one of my favorites was the Raspberry Jam, but instead of using sugar, I used Stevia. I am sure this was not as good as it would have been if I used sugar, but this was super yummy on toast.

This cookbook has everything from pancakes, to different drink recipes. I will be trying Neil’s Pancakes next, the toppings for these pancakes look super good!

  1. I would love to win because I have a hard time coming up with ideas as to what to make for different meals for my family. Many times it is just me and my husband but there are times I am making meals for more than just us. This sounds like a book that has a number of options that would appeal to many different ages.

  2. I love to bake so I’d love to try new recipes!

Thanks for the chance!
