The first cookbook by the founders of Chowgirls Killer Catering, Minneapolis’s premier catering company started in 2004 that now employs over 100 people. The Chowgirls were early adopters of the local, organic, sustainable, and seasonal approach to cooking; their ethos is clearly reflected in this cookbook, which offers seasonal, elegant yet easy appetizers and party food for social gatherings using local, sustainable, and organic ingredients.
While the book will have a primarily Midwest sensibility, recipes will also reflect Amy and Heidi’s upbringing (the South and the Northeast), so it will have national interest. Each chapter is arranged seasonally; “Summer” includes outdoorsy recipes such as Flank Steak Skewers with Chimichurri, Guacamole & Pico De Gallo, Coconut-Curry Chicken Skewers, and Gazpacho Jars. Each “season” also includes cocktails.
There are other appetizer cookbooks (such as by Martha Stewart and Ina Garten) but none offer an organic/sustainable approach, or have such a lively culinary point-of-view.
Amy and Heidi have backgrounds in writing, bookselling and publishing, so they are excellent communicators. As articulate, passionate supporters of locavore/sustainable/organic cuisine, they will do well with media.
Full-color photos throughout, including both recipes and "action" shots. Includes 80+ recipes.
Freelance publicity for Minnesota (Field Guide) and nationally.
