SWEDESBORO, N.J., April 27, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Readers will be rushing to bookstores as Jennifer Ingersoll presents a new way of making love -- cooking. She combines love and gastronomy to create a delectable collection of recipes that will feed passion as well as nourish the body. Ingersoll brings the art of romance into the kitchen with Love Potion... captures the heart and the tummy.
Love Potion offers great ideas for a full-blown meal with recipes for entrees, side dishes, breads, breakfast ideas and desserts. Ingersoll teaches how to please the palates of that special loved one with scrumptious courses such as Spicy Salmon with Shrimp, Chicken Parmesan, and Lobster Ravioli Delight, to name a few. Meanwhile, quotes from Virgil, Shakespeare, Sir Walter Scott, and Plato will fire up the heart with thoughts of l'amour.
A variety of side dishes and accompaniment breads will enrich any mouthwatering entree as Ingersoll presents her special rice salad, couscous, and garlic potatoes, together with her sweet evening rolls and tasty herb bread.
To put the sweetest end to the meal, Ingersoll's Desserts Amour provides instructions on creating heavenly White Chocolate Chip Cookies, Simply Simple Cake, Carrot Cake Splendor and Tiramisu.
As well, Ingersoll puts the icing on the cake with her own poems of love, the expressive bubbling up of her irrepressible romantic side. Following the idea that love is in the eye of the beholder, Ingersoll does not include pictures of her creations and lets readers find out or create the final appetizing results for themselves.
Dedicated to believers of love and to everyone who loves to cook, Love Potion creates the opportunity to bring people closer to their loved ones or bring love into their lives. New couples, married couples, and couples needing a rekindling will surely find an inviting new way of making love in Ingersoll's ardent cookbook.
