Book Report - Carol Recommends

Food IQ: 100 Questions, Answers, and Recipes to Raise Your Cooking Smarts by Daniel Holzman & Matt Rodbard
Book Report - Carol Recommends

This book consists of a bunch of questions and answers to those questions. Sort of a narrative and then sometimes a Q&A with a celebrity Friend of Food IQ; Ina Garten, Jose R. Ralat, illustrations, photographs, and maybe a related recipe.

Things like “What is Kobe beef, and is it really better?” and “What’s the difference between hot smoking and cold smoking?”

Frankly, I’d never heard of cold smoking and now I know it’s smoking at a low temperature to flavor and preserve food without cooking. Fun fact for me. Included is how to make the perfect cup of coffee and how to cook tasty liver, heart, and beef tongue. And how to make homemade hummus.

I don’t see this title being used as a cookbook or a reference book but rather for browsing. Chances are you’ll hit on something interesting and you might want to try a recipe or two. This one is fun and entertaining.

This title is available in print at the Library and downloadable ebook through Overdrive/Libby.

His mother, father, Karen and Trent were neighbors of ours in Tonopah, Nevada. We moved to Fallon first and then the Kroll's later moved there also. Mother and Wanda were good friends. My brother Michael and Trent were playmates in Tonopah. Mother and my three little children visited the family at their ranch in Fallon. My condolences to Frank's family. May you be comforted to know that I care and I pray you will be comforted by your memories of Frank. Sincerely,Comment publication date: 4/30/26, 11:51 AMComment source: Frank Robert Kroll
