Out of Town Thrifty #2 ~ The Bosler Cookbook and Cooking with Flavor

The Bolser Cookbook - Hors d'Oeuvres and Other Savory Recipes, published in 1988. Another large community cookbook filled with 353 pages of recipes and menus for entertaining. The book was sold as a fundraiser for the Bosler Free Library (now the Bosler Memorial Library) located in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The featured menu is from the Host & Hostess Benefit Dinner held in 1983 and features an Italian dinner. A few other themed menus include a New Orleans brunch, a Mid-East buffet and a Taste of Ireland. I found an easy recipe for Kim chi that I plan on testing out.




McCormick Cooking with Flavors - Spice Up Your Everyday Favorites, published in 2007. Beautifully photographed over sized cookbook touting McCormick spices and extracts in all the recipes. The dishes include appetizers, breakfast/brunch, entrees sides and desserts. The recipes require few ingredients as the spices or extracts are intended to highlight the finished product. The last chapter is an "Enspicelopedia", a massive listing of spices with a photo and small nugget of  info.
