Scully Salon — 235 Pleasant St., Marblehead, MA
Join us on Wednesday, Oct. 7 at 12:30 p.m. in the Event Center for the return of the Abbot Public Library Cookbook Club – a starting point for a conversation about food, recipes, and an exploration of the evolving American kitchen. At each meeting, a book or theme will be explored in discussions of recipe, construction, background, cooking, display and tasting. Space is limited, and registration is required. Please register below. This month, the group will be exploring Irish cooking. Register to receive the full list of books and the recipe sign-up link! Participants will be encouraged to delve into and enjoy the spirit of the featured books, then choose a recipe that suits their comfort level and budget to bring to the next meeting for tasting. Remember, you eat first with your eyes, so presentation is the invitation. As most cookbook recipes are written for 6 or 8 servings, that will be our tasting amount. Food should travel easily from home to the Library and require minimal heating and set up, keeping in mind that there are minimal kitchen facilities available at the Library. Save the dates: Nov. 18 will feature Portuguese cooking and Dec. 9 will be all about Holiday Baking!…
