Get Your Kitchen Party started with The Kitchen Party Cookbook by Jenny Osburn

Disclosure: I received a copy of the Kitchen Party Cookbook by Jenny Osburn to review. I am so excited to try it out because I’m just so proud of Jenny! All opinions are my own.

Jenny Osburn has done it again! She has created another great cookbook featuring recipes with local food, including a shopping guide so you know just where in the Valley to find the ingredients!

I met Jenny over 20 years ago when we sang alto together in the Annapolis Valley Honour Choir. Let me tell you, she’s multi-talented!

Jenny and some of her family members ran the Union Street Cafe in Berwick for many years, until recently, she passed the torch to focus on other ventures, like creating cookbook art.

Jenny’s first cookbook, The Union Street Cafe Cookbook came out last spring and features popular recipes from the restaurant. Read my review here!

Now, Jenny has come out with a new cookbook featuring recipes that are great for a Nova Scotian tradition: the Kitchen Party!

Besides the recipes, Jenny gives some menu suggestions, tips on how to prepare for a large crowd, and of course where to source the ingredients locally!

As Jenny said to me, and I totally agree, the book is just as much a piece of art as it is a cookbook! The front cover design is by Laura MacDonald of Deep Hollow Print and the book is bound by Gaspereau Press. You will love how the book feels in your hands.

I went to the book launch party and sampled so many great dishes from the cookbook.

I went home and cracked open my copy to add some post-it notes to the pages I wanted to try. I’m not sure why I bothered, because I think I tagged almost every page!
