Cookbook and fiction author Judith Fertig grew up in the Midwest, went to college and cooking school in Europe, and now lives in the Kansas City area. Described by Saveur Magazine as a "heartland cookbook icon," Fertig writes cookbooks that reflect her love of bread, baking, barbecue, and the fabulous foods of the Heartland.
You can read some of her cookbooks like novels--the fabulously photographed Heartland, the award-winning and James Beard Awards-nominated Prairie Home Cooking (a "tour de force," says Saveur), the encylopedic All-American Desserts, and Prairie Home Breads. Her IACP Cookbook Award-winning The Back in the Swing Cookbook (with Barbara C. Unell) takes you on a delicious daily journey to get you back in the swing after breast cancer. And good news: the Anniversary edition of The Back in the Swing Cookbook with even more food and lifestyle content for breast cancer survivors is out in September, 2024!
And some of her books ARE novels. Her debut The Cake Therapist , the story of a talented pastry chef with a very special gift who opens a bakery in her hometown, with mesmerizing results. The award-winning sequel, The Memory of Lemon, followed. Her newest novel, The Art Detective, will be published in 2024.
Other books reflect her ongoing reign as a tiara-totin' BBQ Queen, having fun with co-author and co-queen Karen Adler, from BBQ Bash, 300 Big & Bold Barbecue Recipes, and Weeknight Grilling to 25 Essentials Planking, 25 Essentials Grilling Fish, and the best-selling The Gardener and the Grill. Do you know the 4 BBQ Queen Waves for when you become famous (for your barbecue or anything else) ?? Here are a few hints: Wiping the windshield, screwing in a lightbulb, fluttering the air. . . . Do them along with us on the Food Network. http://www.Youtube.com/watch?v=bGFVownwvVA
And some of her cookbooks just make you want to get in that kitchen and stir up something new--with one-bowl, no-knead bread in 200 Fast & Easy Artisan Breads or with your "electric assistant" in The Artisan Bread Machine.
