Gilmore Girls Cookbook

Product Information

Gift this book to the Gilmore Girls lover in your life, along with a Luke’s Diner Apron, which comes as part of a set.

Would Lorelai have survived so many Friday night dinners without her go-to drink, a gin martini? Despite Emily (Kelly Bishop) and her best efforts to derail her daughter with a Sidecar, we’ve lost count of how many of these drinks Lorelai had to sip on over the years while putting up with her parents’ shenanigans. If you’ve got some time on your hands, why not concoct your own gin with a craft brewing kit. You can call it “Dragonfly Gin,” or some other punny, Gilmore-worthy name. Later that week, I met with a midwife and I liked her immediately. We started to share our news with friends and family and I began to feel their happiness on our behalf reflected in my own heart. I felt like I could finally breathe a little bit. Mix salmon filling: In a food processor, add salmon, dill, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper. Process until a coarse paste forms. Add mustard and cheese. Process until the mixture is smooth. Set aside. RECIPES FOR EVERY OCCASION: Whip up delicious dishes for everything from a mother-daughter brunch to a family dinner to a celebration for the whole town!The first chapter is based on Luke's Diner. This chapter features the classic Hot Fudge Sundae with grapefruit on the side, Luke’s Special Omlet, the hilarious but yummy Santa Burger, the well-named named Danish Day-Danishes, and the yummy Ceasar’s Chilequiles, which I’ve made and recommend. Now, this is a true recipe book. The recipes are based on the show. Sure you’d be fine with the cookbook even if you never watched the show, as long as you eat like a Gilmore, or a Sookie, or a Mrs. Kim. Gilmore Girls The Official Cookbook is a fun and delicious treat that I would highly recommend you add to your cookbook collection.

Oy with the poodles already! The first official collection of recipes inspired by the world of the fast-talking Gilmore Girls. And then, just as I was about to start cooking, and in what I’d like to think is a truly Amy Sherman-Palladino-appropriate plot twist, something in my life changed drastically. I learned that I’m pregnant. Cut dough: Lay out a sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Use a shot glass (or any round cutter that is 2 inches in diameter) to cut 15 circles from the sheet.

For the grand finale of my “eating like a Gilmore Girl” experiment, I had decided to make not just a Luke’s Diner burger, but the famous Luke’s Diner Santa Burger (pg. 25). This particular burger has a brief but stunning cameo in season one, episode ten, the first of what could be thought of as the Gilmore Girls Christmas episodes. For the uninitiated, the show follows the lives of a mother-daughter duo, Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, through ambitions and disappointments, loves and heartbreaks in a fictitious small town of Stars Hollow, C.T., at the turn of the millennium. The internet existed, but social media didn’t, and theirs was a largely analog existence. Make roll #1: On 27 of the 4-inch pieces, sideways across the marshmallow, place 3 pieces of licorice, cut to size, and 2 Tootsie Rolls. Roll each one, beginning at the marshmallow side. Trim any excess licorice. Place rolls on a plate. Set aside.

If you have been watching the show, you immediately know why there would be a cookbook based on the series. If you have not, you would be asking that very question. Food plays a big part in the show, and many of the scenes with the two main characters and others are centered around meals, either a burger at Luke’s Diner or a sit-down meal at their elder families' dinner table on Fridays.Let’s just say I was super happy on Christmas morning when I unwrapped one of my presents and realized I got this book from Santa. I adore Gilmore Girls. I watched the series faithfully as a teenager and love re-watching it as an adult. So, you can imagine how excited I was when I saw that there was a Gilmore Girls cookbook coming out. Any fan of the show will know how important food talk is in this series. This book is everything I could have hoped for. Let’s be clear, I’m no teenager. I’m now several years older than Lorelai was in the first season of Gilmore Girls, but I still feel as though I’ve got a long way to go in terms of building a life with the same stability as hers. It’s a common refrain for millennials; we without pensions or houses of our own or hopes of retirement. There are very good reasons so many of us in the Rory generation are skipping having kids at all. Aghhh! Those endpapers! I love them. In fact they would make a great phone case or even fabric (I see an apron!). Sure, a Harvard sweatshirt might be right for the earlier season, but true fans know that the correct answer for where Rory will go to college is Yale. Go bulldogs.
