Comfort Food by Julia Bettlehelm

Librarian Laura’s Review

Who doesn’t love Comfort Food? Personally, I’m always in the mood for comfort food, whether summer or winter…bring it on! In her February 2018 published 122 page cookbook, Chef and author Julia Bettelheim includes recipes which at first glance appear to range in preparation and skill from simple to technical. However, most of the recipes require some background cooking knowledge and certain ingredients are not listed in specific details. The book contains main dishes, soups, salads, and desserts, all of which could be considered comforting food. Additionally, Bettelheim includes recipes specific to England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Due to this, however, some of the ingredients used in the recipes may not be readily available in the states. In summary, this is a still a good choice of cookbook for its variety of recipe types and would make a great gift for food lovers who like to branch out and try international recipes.

Thank you to Clink Street Publishing for providing me with a review copy of this title in exchange for an honest reivew.
