SHOW ME THE BUNNY! Welcome to Camelot's Kitchen, a salad cookbook AND bunny photo book inspired by a real rabbit! Back story: This lost bunny named Camelot showed up one day on the Beverly Hils doorstep of salad chef Shoreh. Not knowing what to feed this adorable creature, Shoreh scoured the local farmer's markets for exciting herbs, unusual greens and fruits, and a variety of nuts and vegetables. Every day she'd bring home new treats, and every day she was surprised by Camelot's growing and enthusiastic palate! Inspired by Camelot, Shoreh started re-inventing her own salads. She experimented with new spices, unusual combinations of dried fruits and other exotic ingredients like rose water and tangerine. After five years she'd perfected a selection of salads that will make anyone jump for joy. But she didn't stop there...! In addition to the recipes and secrets on making sensational salads, Camelot's Kitchen offers 64 full-color pages of glamour shots of Camelot! For the book, top Hollywood photographers captured charismatic Camelot in bunny photos the world has never seen! This lost bunny has quickly become a Hollywood celebrity! With the release of his cookbook and the debut of his youtube page camelotskitchen, Camelot has taken the world by storm! Check out the book here on Amazon, and see live footage of Camelot on Youtube. History: Camelot was sold as an Easter bunny to a family who locked him in an outdoor hutch and virtually forgot him. However, this intrepid bunny escaped from this lonely life and hopped into a world he d never imagined! Scared and hungry, he showed up on someone s doorstep, and the two fell instantly in love. Camelot s life changed overnight. From virtually being homeless he found palatial living quarters INSIDE the house, fresh veggies and fruit treats were offered frequently and love was in the air . A natural socialite, Camelot lives a pampered life, rich with excitement. He travels to cafés with his mummy, meeting and greeting people everywhere he goes. Photographers and filmmakers show up to film him, and his Youtube videos inspire hundreds of hits every day. His gourmet salad book Camelot s Kitchen is full of SECRETS on how to use spices, fresh fruits and other exotic ingredients to make salads the most exciting part of your meal. How did the book come about? In an attempt to please her hungry bunny, Shoreh scoured the Farmer s Market for the freshest herbs and most exotic fruits and nuts. She discovered that Camelot has a varied and discerning palate, and she started experimenting with these ingredients herself...adding spices and other unusual ingredients (like tangerine juice and rose water) to create salads that have become a sensation! He has since defected to West Hollywood where he will be signing ( pawing ) copies of his book, Camelot s Kitchen on Thursday, June 18th at 7:00 PM at Book Soup on Sunset Boulevard. Please join us in welcoming this charismatic bunny to the world of the literati and encourage him to bring joy and health to everyone around him. DELICIOUS recipies, a TRUE story, and HUNDREDS of PICTURES of Camelot!

Two Dudes, One Pan: Maximum Flavor from a Minimalist Kitchen Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was a little concerned from the other reviews because nobody had actually tried a recipe so I was beginning to think they were just bros of the authors' trying to give them all 5 stars. Well I'm glad I didn't go by all the other reviews. This is actually a really good cookbook. I own 400+ so I've been through a few.
The best recipe so far has been the Chicken Thighs in White Wine and Herbs on page 114. It was delicious. It called for all fresh herbs which I didn't have at the time so I used dried. The recipe turned out just as tasty. Please don't let the other reviews stop you from actually trying the recipes in this cookbook. It really is worth it.
You do have short snippets of their stories at the beginning of each recipe, the photographs are few and not that great, but the pages are coated so they will hold up.
The Cornflake Bars weren't pretty but they were delicious. There are recipes for making all your favorite salad dressings, including Green Goddess. The Bleu Cheese dressing was bar none, the best. Their salad chapter with homemade dressings rivals Simply Salads: More than 100 Delicious Creative Recipes Made from Prepackaged Greens and a Few Easy-to-Find Ingredients. They don't have that many but they're every bit as delicious.
Overall a good buy. They do use basic kitchen cookware, basic ingredients and they have a really good palette. Also, if you like this one check out Sam the Cooking Guy: Just a Bunch of Recipes, it's a pretty one too. Enjoy.
