Submitted by Such Great Recipes
Evelyn Hoefakker’s love of cooking and baking goes back to her childhood days, first watching her grandmother make the perfect gravy and then joining a cookbook club, poring over many different recipes.
Now the Blaine woman has published her own cookbook, “Such Great Recipes,” which will make its public debut March 19–21 at the Spring Craft and Antique Show, held at the Northwest Washington Fairgrounds in Lynden. Hoefakker will discuss cooking with attendees at the popular show and have the book available for sale for $19.95.
“My cooking and baking style can be labeled “traditional” because I like to make things that everyone recognizes and loves,” Hoefakker said.
The 115-page book features more than 90 recipes with sections on appetizers and salads, soups, dinners, side dishes, muffins and quick breads, desserts and beverages.
“The recipes in this book were created to accommodate busy schedules, special events and one-hour high school cooking classes,” Hoefakker said. “And since a lot of them were first written for my students, they have plenty of details to guide cooks of all levels.”
Hoefakker, a Lynden School District culinary instructor, also writes a cooking blog at www.SuchGreatRecipes.com.
In addition to the craft show, “Such Great Recipes” will be available by March 19 at two Lynden stores, Katz Coffee and Surroundings, and at www.SuchGreatRecipes.com. For more information or to schedule a presentation from Hoefakker, visit the website or call 360-366-5297.
