Gooseberry Patch Launches New Series of Cooking Videos: 'In the Kitchen with Vickie & Jo Ann'

June 23, 2011 - PRLog -- Independent cookbook publisher Gooseberry Patch has just launched a new series of free step-by-step cooking videos to complement its line of best-selling cookbooks. The videos, hosted by company co-founders Vickie Hutchins and Jo Ann Martin,  feature favorite home-cooked recipes selected from Gooseberry Patch cookbooks.

"For more than 20 years, our readers have enjoyed recreating our tried and true recipes in their own kitchens," says Martin. "Now, they can follow us step-by-step while we bake, sizzle, blend, stir, chop, taste, and have lots of fun!"

"From garden lunches to summertime dinners, tailgating snacks to holiday treats, we’ll be bringing you delicious dishes for every season, straight from the Gooseberry Patch kitchen," says Hutchins. "It’s simple and delicious homestyle cooking, like Mom and Grandma used to make."

Martin and Hutchins have cooked up a baker's dozen of recipes to launch the series. From Creamy BLT Dip and Goalpost Apple Slaw, to Coffee Cream Brownies and Vickie's Tomato-Basil Pie, there's an easy-to-prepare dish for every cook and every occasion. Complete recipes are presented in a simple step-by-step format, along with a link to an easy-to-print recipe.
