The "best of the repertoire" of a Maine couple who enjoy cooking together, this collection of 350 favorite recipes includes a harvest of down-to-earth home economies, food-related reveries, and camp-kitchen wisdom. Drawing on food traditions and cuisines from Downeast and around the world, Maine Mapmaker's Kitchen speaks to creative cooks, home gardeners, and anyone who enjoys eating well at home, camp, and on waterborne adventures. The recipes, featuring natural and local ingredients, are complemented by practical sidebars on growing, harvesting, preserving, and preparing food. Like symbols on a map, four recipe icons highlight whether a dish is camp-friendly, vegetarian, "recyclable," or a chance to use up leftovers. Thoughtfully written and designed, the cookbook is charmingly illustrated with over 100 original ink drawings and photographs
