Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat. Six Seasons. Tenderhart. Bravetart. Dessert Person. Midwest Made. These are just a handful of the nearly 200 cookbooks the Food52 Cookbook Club and Food52 Baking Club have collectively cooked together since 2017. And each one of them is fair game to cook through during August.
Of all the times to join the clubs, this so-called “throwback month” (which we also hold in February) is probably the easiest time to get into the groove of our Facebook Groups. You are almost guaranteed to have at least one of the cookbooks from our list sitting on your shelf, ready to crack open again. And if you don’t, we always post recipes excerpted on Food52 that you can cook from. Case in point: I don’t own Sweet Enough, which was our July pick in the Baking Club, but I still made Allison Roman’s Blueberry Cornmeal Shortbread Tart from the book because we shared the excerpted recipe. Once everyone began raving about it and posting their own pics, it was only a matter of time before I felt compelled to try it, too. (Verdict: it’s easy and so, so good.)
Even though this month is technically a choose-your-own adventure, we decided to provide a little direction for members who like a recipe challenge. In our Cookbook Club you’ll find four Abra Berens recipes to cook from each week, and in our Baking Club, our queen this month is Dorie Greenspan, whose recipes we’ll also be sharing and challenging members to make. Both authors are now taking questions for their upcoming AMAs, too. Join either club—or both!—before August 22 to pose your questions—they’ll be recording their responses in a video that we’ll share in the clubs.
Click here to join the Cookbook Club and here to join the Baking Club—you’ll be able to see the full list of the cookbooks each club has cooked through once you join. And if Facebook isn’t your thing—we get it—you can also join members on Instagram who post pics from their cookbook “cooks” with the hashtags #f52cookbookclub and #f52bakingclub.
