BRAVO! BEST OF BRIDGE COOKBOOK
All new recipes from The Best of Bridge.
"It's been five years since we last published a new Best of Bridge cookbook. We decided it was time to retire, close the office and hang up our aprons -- which we did. But we kept on cooking, tasting and scribbling kitchen notes. In our "retirement," we have continued to expand our culinary repertoire through travel and sharing food with family and friends. We then met Sally Vaughan-Johnston, food writer, cooking professional and culinary whiz. Not only did she share our enthusiasm for retro recipes and new fangled foods, but she had the same irreverent sense of humor. And so it began, and here we are back with a brand-new volume of brand-new recipes."
The easy-to-use hardcover concealed wiro format is back by popular demand and contains more than
200 recipes that will be treasured for years to come, including:
- - Mulligatawny Soup

- Chocolate Pecan Caramel Bars.
"Still, one thing hasn't changed. Our motto remains 'Simple recipes with gourmet results' and, as our loyal fans have come to expect, the recipes work and the one-liners will keep you smiling."

A YEAR OF THE BEST
Oh boy! It's 25 years since the first Best of Bridge cookbook! We're still tasting, testing and publishing -- we love this job! Our approach to cooking remains the same: Simple recipes with gourmet results. But it's time for a fresh approach to publishing and you're looking at it!
While we were filming our television series for WTN, we asked Chef Vincent Parkinson, formerly captain of Culinary Team Alberta and Culinary Team Canada and currently the Chief Executive Chef of the Calgary Golf and Country Club, to join us and demystify the art of carving a turkey. We liked his twinkly smile, his dry sense of humour, and his approach to cooking. So we thought to ourselves: Wouldn't it be fun to do a book with him? We could learn lots of new culinary skills and develop a real home-cooked approach to his gourmet creations.
It was an exciting project
We found Chef Vincent was gracious, helpful, tolerant AND twinkly!.
We questioned, we cooked, we laughed and we learned! As the book evolved, we realized we were discovering new ways to celebrate the foods of the seasons. We've enjoyed the culinary adventure and we know you'll enjoy the results! Here's to A Year of The Best!
