About this item
Take a bite out of Diana Gabaldon's New York Times bestselling Outlander novels, the inspiration for the hit Starz series, with this immersive official cookbook from OutlanderKitchen.com founder Theresa Carle-Sanders! Claire Beauchamp Randall's incredible journey from postwar Britain to eighteenth-century Scotland and France is a feast for all five senses, and taste is no exception. From Claire's first lonely bowl of porridge at Castle Leoch to the decadent roast beef served after her hasty wedding to Highland warrior Jamie Fraser, from gypsy stew and jam tarts to fried chicken and buttermilk drop biscuits, there are enough mouth-watering meals along the way to whet the appetite of even the most demanding palate. Now professional chef and founder of OutlanderKitchen.
About the Author
I cooked and baked alongside my mom and grandmas from the time I could stand on a stool and reach the counter. I made breakfast (eggs - scrambled, poached or coddled - bacon, toast and OJ) with my dad every Sunday for the best part of my youth.
In 2003, after years of discontentment with city living, my husband Howard and I moved to a small island off the coast of British Columbia. A few years after that, I followed a lifelong dream and finally enrolled in culinary school, where I finished at the top of my class.
In between working in restaurants, catering, and selling baking at our island's farmers' market, I discovered a love of writing that seemed to blend well with my passion for food. I began my first food blog, IslandVittles.com, in 2009, and followed that up with a second, OutlanderKitchen.com, in 2011.
These days, if I'm not in the kitchen or at my computer, I'm most likely walking in the woods or on the beach with my constant companion, our dog Koda.
