Behold my latest obsession – Todd Porter and Diane Cu‘s first cookbook, Bountiful: Recipes Inspired by Our Garden. It’s filled with wonderful photographs, recipes and stories. I’m giving away a copy since I think everyone should own it. And here’s why:
Amongst the gorgeous photographs, taken by Diane and Todd, you’ll read heartfelt stories from this girl from Vietnam and boy from a cattle ranch in Oregon. You’ll read about they built their food life together and about their beautiful garden, their favorite recipes, and how they love to share all of this with everyone around them.
You’ll also get to know their awesome dogs, Sierra and Lexi.
You’ll learn how to master some of my favorite recipes of theirs like Homemade Sriracha (chile hot sauce).
Then there’s the recipe for Meyer Lemon-Iced Brown Butter Madeleines which I baked here.
And the addictive and awesomely named Sweet Onion Crack Dip.
And the healthy and beautifully colored Olive Oil–Baked Beet Chips with sea salt and black pepper.
And the exquisitely crisp Heirloom Tomato Galette.
Trust me. You’ll be inspired to invite friends over as you read about how they love to nurture the people around them by sharing their scrumptious homecooked meals.

Hi, I’m Vyasar. I just started reading your blog on the suggestion of a friend who knows you, and I’m working on a book about Indian food in America, and I want to win this cookbook!
Is that too many ands?
Anjali says
Hi Vyasar! Thank you for commenting. There are never too many ands. 😉 I can’t wait to read your book about Indian food in America. Good luck with that and the giveaway!

Those Madeleines look wonderful, perfect way to use winter citrus!

The homemade Sriracha
Natalie Sheikh says
The homemade sririacha sauce for sure, and I need to see what’s in the sweet onion crack dip, I could live off dips! I love this site. My husband is from Pakistan and I was introduced to the most amazing cuisine when I married him, dhal especially has become one of my favourite dishes. I always made it a certain way and it tasted good but not quite as good as I’d get in Indian/Pakistani restaurants. The recipe you shared on here is just the most PERFECT recipe and exactly what I was looking for, I doubled the recipe and finished it in less than 2 days! I will make my dhal like this all the time now, so thank you for that! Great giveaway too
xx
Anjali says
Thanks, Natalie! You just made my day. I’m so happy to hear you like the lentil recipe. It’s one of my favorites and I cook it every week now. Maybe dhal with a little homemade sriracha sauce? 😉 Good luck with the giveaway!

I’ve always been intrigued by your Meyer Lemon recipes, as well as the pictures that go along with them. So I’d have to vote for Meyer Lemmon-Iced Brown Butter Madeleines! But quite honestly, pictures of Lexi and Sierra are almost as much fun as trying new recipes! Love them!

Deborah Kuprunas says
I grew up in Philadelphia. Back in the day(80’s), while I was learning my craft as a classical vocalist, I was blessed to work at small charming cafes that roasted their own coffee beans, made amazing bread and pastry, and beautifully presented bistro plated food. There was always art, music and poetry. And owners who were willing to teach their staff their skills. I never forgot those precious adventures. Many good memories. I am a late bloomer in my own kitchen now. My favorite spice is saffron. I grow my own squash blossoms and other edible flowers. I work under the table as a barista, sommelier, and assistant baker and haunt the farmer’s markets and local farms on my down time. I discovered Perfect Morsel in the early morning during a coastal storm in north central Florida, a small seaside village, fogged in–could not sleep because the wind was clattering shutters, and sheets of fast moving rain louder than the ocean surf. So, I am preparing lovingly, baked apples and your turmeric milk recipe. I have found exciting adventures in rediscovering my food creativity, which is out of it’s dormancy. The Bountiful Cookbook sounds like the perfect food dharma to study from! Kindest Regards, Deborah Kuprunas
Anjali says
Hi Deborah, Thank you for your lovely comment and for sharing your love of food. Saffron is amazing! But I have yet to share a recipe on the site using it. I’ll have to do so soon. I hope you enjoyed the apple tart and turmeric milk. They’re some of my favorites. Looking forward to hearing from you again. Good luck with the giveaway!

Gloria R, says
What delicious looking recipes and then you ask which one I would try first? I really, really had to think about that but I finally decided I’d like to try the Heirloom Tomato Galette. I love tomatoes and we have been growing heirlooms for the past 5 years. They may not last quite as long as the others if they set on the counter, but our’s are used very quickly and the flavor is so much better,
Thank you for offering this beautiful cookbook as a give away.
