Win a Copy of Outlander Kitchen!

OK sassenachs, by now I'm sure you've heard of Outlander Kitchen, a fantastic website run by Theresa Carle-Sanders. Theresa is a chef and food writer who has been creating delicacies mentioned by Diana Gabaldon in the Outlander series for years. And if that wasn't cool enough, she has now put all of them in print, for us to create and enjoy! Outlander Kitchen: The official Outlander Companion Cookbook is the latest creation in the Outlander Kitchen world, and will be available on June 14th!



Theresa has been kind enough to pass along a copy of her cookbook for one of you lucky Outlander fans to win!

To enter, just post your name, and the name of your favorite dish/food from the Outlander series into the comments  below (your own recipe optional but not necessary!) Winner will be chosen at random on Monday, June 20th at 12PM Eastern.

And just to get your juices flowing, here is Theresa's recipe for Apple Fritters! Enjoy!

6/22 UPDATE: I'm so sorry, y'all. Tracey and I had a family emergency this week so I wasn't able to pick a winner on Monday. Our mom, affectionately known to our Outlander buds as PattzR, fell and broke her elbow on Friday night. Last night she underwent a full elbow replacement, and it's been a very rough time for our family. I will be picking the winner tomorrow morning and will announce shortly thereafter. THANK YOU SO MUCH for your patience and understanding!!!!!

UPDATE: A winner was announced on 6/23 and this contest is now closed. Thanks for your interest!

  1. Kristen Phillips - I love Claire's Molasses cookies from ABOSAA. It's one of the few things Claire actually makes in the books and that whole scene that follows is so crazy! :)

  6. Claire's molasses cookies! Would love to have this book. Also when Bree eats some type of fresh meat pie in Scotland when she met lizzy. There is so many good things. Love you videos and blog posts btw!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I have only read the first book and am now in the second so for me it would be the different ways to fix potatoes in Dragonfly in Amber. We have so many different foods to eat that I never thought of not having certain things. This series is fabulous and I love what I am learning.

  23. I had never heard of CHERRY BOUNCE until Diana's books. The description of it as being like cherry cough medicine was perplexing . Theresa's recipe book helped me recreate it and I've been "bouncing around the kitchen" ever since. It's my go to Christmas gift for fellow Outlander obsessives.

  24. Dorianne Paul and my favorite Outlander food is parritch! My breakfast almost every morning!

  29. Terri Topencik- I first thought of Brianna's Bridie meat pies when reading your post. Reading the other posts is like a walk down memory lane. So many memorable foods and scenes. I have made some of Therese's recipes for my viewing parties. You've made me hungry now thinking of all this great food! Thanks ladies for the chance to win this book!

  31. Julie H. Colum's shortbread. My husband's grandparents emigrated from Firth, Scotland, and passed down the family's shortbread recipe to their daughter, who passed it along to me. Pretty much the same recipe as Colum's, except our recipe calls for powdered sugar, not granulated. Verra yummy, as my hips can attest!

  32. Susie here and to be honest, I have not tried any of the recipes yet, but I will make the molasses cookies first.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Denise. I haven't tried it yet, but I am going to make Crowdie

    ReplyDelete
  34. Kathleen Hoppes. I'd have to say haggis. Was it in Echo In The Bone? I'm not sure I could ever make it, though!

  35. I love venison though I haven't had it for years and the apple fritters recipe is def mouth watering. There are other foods and drinks that sounded good as well. Susan Neufeld

  36. You mean I have to choose?! :-) I think the molasses cookies would be delightful with a cup of tea.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I absolutely LOVE "Fiona's Ginger Nut Biscuits"... When she brings them to Roger, Brianna, and Claire in "Voyager", while they are researching Jamie's history, I just got such a warm feeling... I could totally smell them and the books, and the leather chairs they must have been sitting in. To imagine such a warm atmosphere, and three people who share a common bond, doing something together... I instantly had to go to my kitchen and try to bring the scene to life in my own home ☺️

    ReplyDelete
  38. :) Now there's a difficult choice! But - as I 'love' nuts it therefore must be 'Hazelnut Torte with Brandy-Brown Butter Glaze' inspired by Claires 'crude hickory nut flour cake' at the Ridge in 'Drums of Autumn'. It's simple and delicious!

  39. I've made LJ's steak and mushroom pie from The Private Matter. Fabulous!

  40. I love the molasses cookies. Just hearing the word molassess reminds me of the honeypot scene. They used real honey in the filming. Glad they did not use real molasses. Oh My, that would be worse than honey for someone to clean up.

  41. Scones and clotted cream! My favorite snack with a pot of tea.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I copied off Facebook the recipe for Bannocks that the Frasers ate for breakfast.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Molly Spradley....Cherry Bounce. I've made it so many times and with different fruits. It is a go-to gift every Christmas for family members.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Tabby Lewis and my favorite recipe would be Bangers and Mash from Dragonfly in Amber.

  45. Terra Merrill and I've been fascinated by Jamie Fraser's parritch for years...I get my Golden Spurtle oats sent in from Scotland! Mmmmmm

  67. Shepherd's Pie is my favorite! My mother made it with left overs and a delicious flakey biscuit crust. Mmmmm!

    ReplyDelete
  68. I do not know if it is in the cook book but for some reason Jenny's rabbit pie always intrigued me. The one she made for just her and Jaime during the years he was living in the cave, and he came down to find only her in the house. They didn't have all the ingredients.... I would love to make that one.

  69. Cherry Bounce from the books, but I love DG's enchiladas. They are a regular at my house.

  77. I like the root soup as it is as easy as 1 2 3. Kind of like Stone Soup. Keeps those calories down for my 20th century jaunts;through the stones to the 1960's where thin is in!
