NetGalley Review: The Unofficial Bridgerton Cookbook by Lex Taylor

The Unofficial Bridgerton Cookbook by Lex Taylor

Rating:   ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆

Fans of the Julia Quinn series and the Netflix show will adore this cookbook!  The book interweaves some prose about the book and everyone’s favorite characters/scenes with somewhat period accurate recipes.  While slight modifications have been made since readers are cooking in the year 2021, the recipes are pretty spot on for what the ton would have been eating at the time.  The pictures are beautiful and fully evoke the ambiance of the source material.  The only criticism to offer this gorgeous book is that sometimes the instructions feel a bit sparse for modern cookbook users.  This is entirely a personal quibble, but a common refrain when running a cookbook club was that the instructions were not specific enough for some cooks. It is something that I tend to notice even though it very well may not impact the functionality of the cookbook.  All in all, this one would make a great holiday gift for any Romance readers in your life and a fun addition to any cookbook collection.
