  Additional Info
  The 12th-century Benedictine Abbess Hildegard of Bingen was blessed with an astonishing array of talents. She was, among other things, a mystic, naturalist, visionary, and composer. Hildegard was also granted, by means of heavenly visions, in-depth knowledge about human nutrition. She believed “foods of joy” revitalized us and helped preserve good health in every sphere-physical, spiritual, and psychological.

  Now, famed French chef Jany Fournier-Rosset has mined from Hildegard’s writings a collection of tasty recipes-you’ll find everything from simple jams to chestnut souffle, from spiced wine to Tunisian ratatouille. The book contains a measurement conversion table, cooking terms, special bread-making instructions, lists of ingredients with definitions, sources for rare ingredients used in the recipes, and an index.

  Readers will also find a brief biography of Hildegard and table graces from Saint Benedict and others.

  With a focus on good health and vegetables and herbs from the garden, From Saint Hildegard’s Kitchen makes a wonderful gift for the cooks in your life-including you!

  Saints At The Dinner Table

  $19.99

  “I aimed to create recipes that would appeal to most people, would not require a master’s in culinary arts to prepare and that would entertain as well as inform. My hope is that you feel inspired too and that this book serves as a friendly guidebook in your own quest to connect with-and even break bread with (as our Christian tradition calls us to do)-some of our most beloved saints! Prepare the meals with your family and bring the saints alive at your dinner table.” -from the Introduction

  Do you want to reconnect with family and friends and stimulate mealtime talk? Consider hosting dinners for your nearest and dearest and one of twelve saints who inspired award-winning baker and recipe innovator Amy Heyd. In Saints at the Dinner Table Heyd cooks up a delicious menu of meals that all your loved ones will relish. She dedicates each chapter to a saint who in some way inspired her to create original recipes for a complete meal-from salad to main course to dessert. Heyd combines a brief introduction to each saint, a reflection, an inspired menu, a dinner prayer and questions for meaningful dinner discussion. You won’t want to wait to serve Saints at the Dinner Table at family dinner nights, book club discussions, parties with a twist and as a special gift for newlyweds, anniversaries, birthdays and more.
