 Kevin Kubota's Blog (aka The Action Hero's Cave) reviewed our Cook-in-the-Kitchen Bloody Mary Mix and even included some of his own pix. (Kevin says "Action Hero" is a metaphor for any Smart and Sassy Photoshop guru who uses Photoshop Actions to power through their workflow and supercharge their image.) Check it out!

I was recently sent a little surprise in the mail. It was a bag of Cook-in-the-Kitchen bloody Mary mix. This company from vermont sells specialty food mixes and their website makes me hungry just looking at it. The mix is all natural, (which, by the way, brings up a big peave of mine: crap like high fructose corn syrup and MSG in Bloody Mary mixes.) I mixed a TBS with Tomato juice per the directions (I actually used Trader Joes natural vege juice), and waited patiently for the requisite 15 minutes. Nothing happened.
I decide to follow the rest of the directions and actually add vodka too :-). I poured in the Absolut, added the best olives ever (Novia del Sol Spanish manzanilla), a pickled asparagus spear, and gobbled it down with some spicy Italian pepperoni and whole grain crackers. Yum.
If you like horseradish in your BM, you'll probably really enjoy this mix! It had a nice flavor, not to overwhelming. The fresh ingredients were well balanced and complemented the veg juice well. I would have like a little more peppery kick, but the nice thing about a home brew is you can doctor it to taste. I may try it with a little Tabasco next time. |

I wish I had SMELL'O'VISION, so I could share with the delicious smells from my house today. No, I didn't put in hours slaving over a stove to cook a meal that would make my husband bow to me. But I did make a mean pot of soup and all I had to do was add the water. Want to know more?
This family owned business in Vermont makes amazing mixes that taste like you spent hours in the kitchen slaving away and only take minutes of your day. Pancake & waffle mixes, soup mixes and even coffee. These mixes offer no artificial ingredients or added preservatives. Take it from me, they smell & taste fabulous too!

This wonderful blog devoted to all things green, organic & homeopathic featured Cook-in-the-Kitchen in one of their popular reviews & giveaways. This is what they said about us!
 Cook in the Kitchen is an online shop that offers healthy, gourmet style foods for great low prices. Not only do they have a wide variety of fun and exciting varieties, but their products are all very easy to make. And trust me, I don't cook. That's why a married a chef. I actually married two. But the instructions for the Cook in the Kitchen products are so simple even someone like me who burns water can handle it.

if you'd like to recommend a cookbook you think we'll enjoy -- or your favorite recipes using Cook-in-the-Kitchen products.
 Sixty years since Irma Rombauer advised new cooks to "Stand facing the stove," America's love affair with Joy of Cooking continues unabated. And why not? Joy in hand, tens of millions of people -- from novices to professionals -- have learned to do everything from make a meat loaf to clean a squid to frost a wedding cake. For decades, Joy of Cooking has taught America how to cook, serving as the standard against which all other cookbooks are judged.
All About Breakfast & Brunch upholds that standard. In the conversational and instructional manner of the flagship book, All About Breakfast & Brunch elevates "the most important meal of the day" (and the ever-popular weekend brunch) and offers up such mouth-watering egg dishes as Savory Cheese and Herb-Filled Souffléed Omelet, Eggs Benedict, and Matzo Brei; savory brunch sides like Corned Beef Hash, Crabcakes, and Fried Green Tomatoes; delicious fruit and grain recipes, including Apple Fritters, Apricot Compote, and Muesli; and dozens of baked goods, pancakes, and waffles. You'll also find recipes for traditional brunch beverages as well as menus and entertaining tips. Add to that more than 150 original photographs, specially commissioned for this volume, presented in the most easy-to-use design imaginable.
Whether you belong to one of the millions of American households that already own a copy (or two) of Joy, or you have never cracked the spine of a cookbook before, Joy of Cooking: All About Breakfast & Brunch is for you. It is a spectacular achievement, worthy of its name. Joy has never been more beautiful. |
