Front Cover
Strategic Book Publishing, 2009 - Cooking - 80 pages
In today's world of fast food and packaged meals, modern families lack the skills to prepare home-cooked meals. But eating homemade food is not only healthier and cheaper, it brings back valuable family time that is often missed at the drive-through window. Out to change all that, Pa Pa Tuck's Cook Book is more than just a book of recipes. It is a step-by-step guide for first-time cooks that teaches them how to prepare such classic family feasts as baked smoked ham, Christmas pasta, homemade bread, Great Gram's corn chowder, and much more. If you are looking to bring your family to the dinner table again, this book will inspire you to create a new family tradition of cooking that will be shared for generations. For Peter Tucker, the process of cooking is as important as the product. Meals are a family affair meant to create memories and a strong family bond. His inspiration comes from his 101-year-old Great Gram, who used to say, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." The meals in Pa Pa Tuck's have been passed down through his family for six generations. He sees the book as a way to share his recipes with a new generation of readers.
