Hartstone Inn: Signature Recipes from an Elegant Maine Inn is a collection of recipes that range from breakfast and afternoon tea cookies to dinner appetizers, entrées and desserts to highlights from various ethnic cuisines covered in my cooking classes. The softcover book offers 248-pages of recipes, stories and beautiful photographs of life in Maine. Professional tips and fun food factoids accompany the recipes. The cuisine at the inn touches many cultures and styles of cooking. The breakfast recipes included are some of my favorite morning specialties, ranging from breads and muffins to crepes and frittatas. Afternoon tea offers some of my favorite cookies, scones and biscotti recipes.
With dinner I explore various ethnic techniques to create a five-course menu to be remembered. And so can you. For example, start with a Caribbean appetizer of annatto grilled shrimp with a pineapple-avocado salsa, follow it with New England corn and lobster chowder, homemade peach sorbet and olive-encrusted rack of lamb with a rosemary bordelaise. To finish the whole meal off, try one of our famous French-inspired blueberry and hazelnut soufflés with a Frangelico crème Anglaise. The cooking class section of the book touches on —Caribbean, Dim Sum, Hors d'oeuvres, Pasta and Thai — and extend beyond into Haute Chinese, Spanish Tapas and Maine seafood.
