Marie Porter's new cookbook shows you how fun and easy it can be to cook with hops. While hops are largely associated with the production of beer, the versatile ingredient can actually be used to make a number of tasty dishes and drinks.
The new book is called 'Hedonistic Hops' and it is the first cookbook dedicated to the ingredient. Hops have a unique flavor profile and they can be extremely bitter if not used in the right way. Porter teaches you how to use the exotic ingredient to create recipes that are balanced and flavorful. From condiments to desserts, Porter's recipes use the unique flavor of hops to create a number of tasty dishes.
Porter is currently running a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to finish the cookbook and help people everywhere learn how to cook with hops.
