From the perfect mint julep to benedictine, from a classic hot brown to cheese chutney, Kentucky’s Best gathers the state’s culinary highlights into one collection. Food columnist Linda Allison-Lewis blends traditional and gourmet dishes from restaurants and inns across the state, including Louisville’s Seelbach Hotel.
Try the Seelbach’s Sourmash Bourbon Bread, peanut butter pie from Gambill Mansion Bed and Breakfast, or a slice of Kentucky Whiskey Cake, plus a whole chapter of Derby Favorites. Allison-Lewis pairs each recipe with the story behind it, making this as much a good read as a good cookbook.
