A delicious-looking collection of New England style recipes for all sorts of dishes, especially fish. Rabbit, too. Basically everything, but New England style, but mostly: where can I get me some of that chocolate silk pie?

This book full of new England cuisine had my mouth watering and my stomach rumbling!

Chef Matt Jennings, owner of a Boston area restaurant and former owner of one in the Providence area, offers recipes showcasing New England foods with a bit of a twist. The book provides commentary about New England foods as well as Jennings' life and career. The recipes are generally not for those who want things that can be prepared quickly. They tend to be for those who truly savor cooking. Many of the ingredients may be difficult for persons in some parts of the country to locate. The book is beautifully illustrated by the photography of Huge Galdones.This review is based on an advance review copy provided by the publisher through NetGalley with the expectation of an unbiased review. I attended a webinar about forthcoming cookbooks in which the publisher's representative offered to send advance review copies to any attendee through NetGalley or Edelweiss.

Beautiful cookbook, fabulous recipes! Will be a great addition to library collection. Can't wait to try the Boston Cream Whoopie Pies!

Ranging for healthy to utterly decadent, Homegrown has something to satisfy every palette and household budget. Even if you have no intention of getting your own hands dirty in the kitchen, the photography is still definitely worth the purchase.
