Book excerpt: "Sweet and savory may be new to the palates of some, but Gwen's been mixing it up for years and has been delivering the goods long before agave and ginger had each other at hello." - Bruce Cohen, Academy Award Winning Producer_x000D_ _x000D_ A surprising and satisfying collection of over 80 recipes by Hollywood caterer and food writer Gwen Kenneally that tantalizes sweet and savory curiosities. Recipes include Strawberry Salsa, Jalapeno Cornbread, Peach Pecan Chicken, Sweet Potato Salad and Green Tea and Chocolate Truffles. The notion of sweet and savory isn't new - after all, a popular chocolate candy has been betrothed to peanut butter for years. And a century ago frugal cooks mixed up leftovers with whatever they found in their kitchens, often resulting in culinary discoveries such as learning that sauerkraut mixed in cake batter made a moister cake, with a savory edge. Now, like never before, the savory/sweet combo is taking the food world by storm. The saltier, the brinier, the sweeter, the stickier...the better. The culinary landscape has become a place of art, adventure and a bit of science with flavors taking on bold identities, mandating that alternating flavors complement each other. Gwen's high profile clientele expects her to keep up with trends as well as pave the way. She is known for blending contemporary creativity with family recipes, comfort foods and diversity in her menu planning. In this, her first cookbook, she shares recipes that are hits at Hollywood affairs, political fundraisers and family gatherings. Her recipes are exciting and accessible and are intriguing enough for the accomplished cook and not intimidating for the novice chef. Artfully illustrated by New York designer Alexandra Conn, Sweet and Savory Cookbook is a wonderful addition to the cookbook collection for the forward thinking, food loving kitchen._x000D_ _x000D_ "Gwen Kenneally is a wonderfully creative chef who instinctually knows how to mix and match ingredients and flavors." - Karen Young, Founder, mydailyfind.com
