Created with photographer Scott Dorrance, Dishing Up Maine includes 165 recipes in all, including a few dozen from some of Maine’s most accomplished chefs, and a sweet nod to those famous wild blueberries, in pancakes, muffins, pies, scones, and other baked goods. Local stories and food lore, historical facts and literary quotes, and a traveler’s guide to hidden road food gems make this the ultimate food-lover’s guide to the salty personality of Maine cuisine.
Although clearly inspired by artisanal and fresh food, Dojny doesn't hesitate to make her recipes accessible to the inexperienced cook (e.g., if you suffer from "Fear of Piecrust syndrome," use supermarket piecrusts; they "taste fine"). In addition to recipes, Dojny gives helpful Maine-oriented hints, on, for instance, eating lobster and choosing the best apples for pie. The book's prolific photos of scenic locales may inspire a Maine vacation. (from Publisher's Weekly)
