Murder, She Cooked: A Cabot Cove Cookbook

Wouldn't you love to be a guest at Jessica Fletcher's dining table? Or to sample one of her homemade cookies as you sit and discuss a horrible crime at her kitchen table? Well, here's the next best thing.

Murder, She Wrote superfan Jenny Hammerton of Silver Screen Suppers offers a guide to 132 shows, covering the first six seasons. Companion recipes have been cherry-picked from her archive of more than 8,000 movie star favourites, and all have been kitchen-tested. Why not share a batch of Sheriff Metzger's real-life wife's Kabot Kove Kookies with fellow fans of the show? Or present your family with Angela Lansbury's superb "Jessica's Cheesecake" to help them through a viewing marathon? The actors portraying regular characters Amos Tupper, Seth Hazlitt, Eve Simpson and beauty parlour manageress Loretta Spiegel all have recipes featured within. As do many cold-blooded murderers! Take your pick and cook your way through Cabot Cove and beyond. "The fabulous list of recipes truly reflects the nature of the show, with a mix of global delicacies and home-grown American classics. Like many of us, I share Jessica's love of simple, home-cooked meals but also delight in exotic flavours from far-off lands. This cookbook provides plenty of opportunities to explore. Just be sure and not leave your clam chowder unattended."
