For those of us living in the heart of Washington, we enjoy a deeper appreciation of the huckleberry. The Inland Northwest yields the greatest bounty of huckleberries in the country, from which author Karen Jean Matsko Hood writes and gathers her recipes for Huckleberry Delights Cookbook. Hood has brought together carefully selected huckleberry recipes with easy-to-follow directions for beginner and accomplished cooks alike. These recipes are compiled with readily available ingredients as well as lots of poetry, history, and folklore for the reader to thoroughly enjoy time and time again. This would be a wonderful addition to any cook’s cookbook collection. Share the health benefits of this delicious berry!
