Bring the mysterious and magical world of Emily Dickinson into your home by making the comforting foods that Emily loved to cook.
Whether you are a fan of the hit television series Dickinson or have long been inspired by Emily Dickinsons poems, this enchanting cookbook brings Emily to life as little else could. A distinguished food historian said this about Emily: She was probably better known as a baker than a poet in her lifetime. Remarkably, that is true! Emily wrote her poetry in the kitchen of her home in Massachusetts and was cooking up a storm much of the time. She wrote poems on the wrappers of packages of chocolate that she had ordered for baking; and she wrote recipes in her notebooks of poems. Food and cooking were central to Emilys identity and were woven into her vocation of writing poetry.
The more than 50 recipes in this colorful and lavishly illustrated book include recipes that Emily recorded during her life, other recipes we know she and her family enjoyed, and recipes typical of the New England of her time. All are completely updated for todays cooks. Throughout, you will also find inspiring poems by Emily, some about food specifically, others that provide poetic inspiration for the recipes in this volume.
