Bite Notes
-
You could go all out and try the Roast Turkey and Chestnut Stuffing that the characters enjoy in Still Life. Or bake Dorie Greenspan’s Lemon Meringue Cookie recipe. It’s inspired by Inspector Gamache’s love of that dessert.
- Pair Caitlin R. Kiernan’s Agents of Dreamland with a delicious, alien-fungus-free dish of pasta with whiskey, wine, and mushrooms.
- Enjoy the complex flavors of Dijon Apricot Chicken Salad when you read Quincredible. Find the recipe in The Everything Salad Book by Aysha Schurman.
