Recipes with spirit for every meal and every season: “A great resource and an essential for unlocking the flavors of bourbon in the kitchen.” ―Tucson Citizen
 
Once thought to be only the tipple of southern gentlemen and the companion of confederate roughnecks, bourbon has gained a steady resurgence in popularity over the years with an ever-expanding and diverse audience. A beverage distilled almost exclusively in Kentucky, bourbon has attained prominence and appreciation for its complexity, history, and tradition.
 
In The Kentucky Bourbon Cookbook, Albert Schmid provides readers with the best recipes using the famous spirit of the Bluegrass. From classic Kentucky cocktails such as the Mint Julep, to bourbon-inspired desserts such as Bourbon-Pecan Crème Brulée with Chocolate Sauce, and more savory fare such as Steaks with Bourbon Ginger Sauce, this book supplies recipes for every course.
 
Schmid uses the four distinct seasons of the Bluegrass State to guide you through this rich collection of bourbon dishes and color photographs. In many ways a lesson on the flavor profiles that pair with and improve the flavor of bourbon, this book can be used by the home cook and the professional chef alike for inspiration to create new dishes—and also recounts bourbon lore, food traditions, and Kentucky history, for a full appreciation of America's native spirit.
 
“All the recipes are straightforward, are easy to prepare, and involve readily available ingredients. As with most good home cooking, the emphasis is not on the painstaking or the exotic but on easy prep and easy eating.” ―The Wall Street Journal

      In his latest, chef and instructor Schmid (The Hospitality Manager's Guide to Wines, Beers and Spirits) presents a collection of seasonal bourbon-based recipes with impressive breadth and depth. Whiskey lovers can start their day with Kentucky Bourbon Pancakes (which, when combined with Blueberry Kentucky Bourbon Syrup, call for a formidable 2 cups of bourbon); lunch on a Wilted Spinach Salad with a sweet and sour orange dressing (generously spiked with a half cup of bourbon); tuck into Chicken with Mustard Honey Kentucky Bourbon Sauce and Kentucky Bourbon Acorn Squash for dinner; and end the day with a slice of fruitcake-like Kentucky Bourbon Cake. Using a combination of sourced, modified and original recipes, Schmid showcases bourbon's versatility; the liquor's inherent sweetness makes it a natural for bread pudding, pecan pie and barbecue sauce, and it's these flavors and applications that dominate, along with standard libations like the Manhattan and Mint Julep. Those with a taste for this uniquely American spirit will find a wealth of possibilities.

You'll find popular drinks like Mint Julep and Kentucky Bourbon Manhattan, but there are new recipes here, too, such as Buckingham Palace Plum Pudding, Kentucky Bourbon Burgers, and Wilted Spinach Salad. An original collection for bourbon enthusiasts.
