Cook the Book
Cook the Book, a quarterly book club for people to discuss and share their cooking adventures, continues this summer at the Margaret R. Grundy Memorial Library, 680 Radcliffe St., Bristol. Join the club at 2 p.m. on Saturday, June 23 as it discusses and cooks brunch food. This is a great opportunity for cooks of all ages, skill levels and interests to share their love of cooking while trying new recipes from the library’s cookbook collection.
To participate, begin by registering in-person, online at grundylibrary.org, or by calling 215–788–7891, then visit the Grundy Library and choose a recipe from among the three cookbooks selected for the discussion. Staff will photocopy your selected recipe, giving you a copy as a participant and keeping a copy on-hand to avoid duplication. Lastly, you make one recipe and bring it to the book club meeting. While sampling and tasting various foods, attendees will discuss techniques and any substitutions used in making the recipe. The library provides plates, napkins and utensils. Pre-registration is required.
