Review: Love Welcome Serve: Recipes that Gather and Give by Amy Nelson Hannon

Purchase at Amazon | Barnes and Noble

Love Welcome Serve dishes up a little bit of southern hospitality mixed with down-home recipes that will comfort you and your family. Amy Helson Hannon's heart definitely leaps out of those delicious pages filled with recipes that bring comfort and joy to the home cook. You can't help but feel as if you are right along side of her experiencing the joy she has for not only her own recipes but those she adores. There is definitely something for everyone in this book. Not only delicious recipes but tips that were extremely helpful. 

I've read many cookbooks and for this being her first cookbook, I really appreciate the attention to detail she gives us to hints about the ingredients and equipment that would be helpful in the kitchen. I haven't come across anything that was so accessible in terminology because other books can get a bit on the technical side but she really zones in on making things look so easy.

Overall, I thought the book had some great tips and some recipes that I can't wait to try. I'm not sure if this was intentional but the homely, beautiful simplicity of the photos and the colorful interior of the book felt like you were at her home being one of her guests. I will say that if you are a big dessert fan like me, she has some really great recipes that look really good. If you are looking for some comfort food to make for your family and friends, check this out to get some good ideas for your next meal.
