The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook: From Cauldron Cakes to Knickerbocker Glory--More Than 150 Magical Recipes for Wizards and Non-Wizards Alike (Unofficial Cookbook)

Product Information

Al principio de cada capítulo se introduce un poco la temática de las recetas que se van a ver en dicho capítulo, por supuesto, siempre a través de referencias a los libros de Harry Potter.

Such a fun book! I always forget I have this and haven't used it nearly enough! Must remedy that soon. We've only tried one recipe out of it (made it twice) and it was really good! Quiero aclarar que, si bien el recetario está ambientado en este mundo, no todas las recetas son de platos «mágicos». De hecho, la mayoría de ellas pueden pasar por comida muggle, al fin y al cabo toda comida parte de la misma base. Por último, quiero añadir que al final del libro tenemos el índice de las recetas y varias páginas de anotaciones para apuntar cualquier cosita. Grease an 8x8 inch square pan and set aside. Combine the sugars, butter, heavy cream treacle and cream of tartar in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium high heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the ingredients are combined. Was down the sides of the pot with a pastry brush dipped in hot water if sugar crystals form on the sides, to prevent recrystallization. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pot and continue to cook without stirring until the mixture reaches 240 degrees on the candy thermometer. With plenty of hilarious jokes from the magical world of Harry Potter, this weasingly witty joke book is perfect for every muggle and wizard alike. Chapter Six: Breakfast Before Class includes some of Harry's favorite breakfasts like fried sausage patties, porridge with cream and treacle, the classic English fry up, traditional English marmalade, lots of fried foods and the odd one out-cinnamon pull-apart breakfast rolls. That last one sounds good and is topped with cream cheese icing. This section is very classically British and what I would expect to be served at Hogwarts.

Customer reviews

Not particularly easy looking recipes. Again ... kind of depends on what you're looking for in a cookbook. Willing to put forth a little effort? This might be just the thing for you. Most of it was a little complicated for my tastes, much as I think it would be grand to plan an HP party. Hola brujas y magos! ¿Cómo estáis? ¿La vida mundana se os hace cuesta arriba? A mí también, para qué te voy a engañar 😂😂 Pero si hay algo que tenemos en común muggles y hechiceros es que a los dos nos gusta comer 🤣🤣

Las recetas están muy bien explicadas. En la parte izquierda de la página tenemos los ingredientes y en la parte derecha una anécdota real sobre el plato en cuestión. En la siguiente página (o siguientes páginas) nos encontramos con las instrucciones, claramente explicadas, para realizar nuestra deliciosa comida o bebida. Bake your way through Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! Inspired by the films, this is the ONE and ONLY official Harry Potter cookbook! I love Harry Potter. I love food. I love the food from Harry Potter. Reading about treats like butterbeer and treacle tarts used to make me want to be a witch just so I could enjoy them. I thought this book and I would get along great. Unfortunately, this cookbook is mediocre at best.

But I was a bit confused as to who the intended audience was. Initially, I thought it was a cookbook aimed at children. The introduction seems to make it seem so, and I thought, what a great idea! Lure boys and girls into the joys of cooking by exploiting — er, capitalizing — on children’s love for the Harry Potter books and movies. Each recipe references a dish or treat mentioned in one of the seven Harry Potter novels, complete with quotation and citation. And then there was the Old-Fashioned Chocolate Buttermilk Sheet Cake Disaster. I was surprised at how liquid-y the batter was, and even more surprised that it only called for a 9x13 pan. Thinking that this cake probably wouldn't rise so much, I went ahead and used all the batter in one pan. Disaster. Complete, utter, total disaster. I followed the recipe to a tee and what happened? The batter bubbled up all over my oven, and continued to bubble and spill everywhere even after I removed it from the oven. All those ingredients, wasted. Smoke everywhere. Did the author even test this recipe? This should have been for two pans, or perhaps four round pans. DO NOT try to bake this in only one 9x13 pan, unless you want to waste the rest of the batter. So many recipes within Harry Potter are normal, everyday items in England and, like Bulchoz, always wondered what does the food taste like?
