Review:
Advance praise for Brenda and Bill Michaels' new book, The Fly Creek Cider Mill Cookbook:
"Filled with stories, archival photographs, and personal memories of the Michaels family through several generations, this book is like getting a postcard from a long lost friend. Pull your rocking chair up in front of a roaring fire, slice off a piece of their Apple Pandowdy, and enjoy flipping through the pages of a cookbook for all seasons." — Big Chuck” D’Imperio, author of A Taste of Upstate New York: The People and the Stories Behind 40 Food Favorites
"Nothing evokes the fall season better than the sweet aroma of fresh picked apples, warm mulled apple cider, and fried apple cider doughnuts. If cookbooks could emit the smells of the season, then this one would certainly fill the room with sweet fragrances of all sorts of delicacies from the orchards of the Empire State." —Jim Allen, president and CEO, New York Apple Association
"This book is a tasteful reminder that apples—the world's number one health food—are also an amazingly versatile ingredient. The creative recipes, graced by mouthwatering photos, make me want to head right to the kitchen and get cookin'. In sum: Yum!" —Jim Trezise, president, New York Wine & Grape Foundation
"This cookbook is a treasure, paying tribute to the Mill's long-standing tradition of family and cider making, and New York State's leadership in producing some of the most delicious apples in the country. These homemade recipes, many of which are created and available onsite at the Mill, are a true celebration of the very best of New York agriculture." —Richard A. Ball, commissioner, New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets
