The Winterlake Lodge Cookbook: Culinary Adventures in the Alaskan Wilderness

In this second edition of her acclaimed cookbook, Chef Kirsten Dixon has added new recipes and revised some of her classics to reflect the changes in palate. She has also updated her commentary on the seasonal foods and events that have evolved over the past few years. Nestled on a remote wilderness lake where the famous Iditarod Sled Dog Trail passes nearby, the kitchen at The Winterlake Lodge provides elegant regional cuisine that continues to excite international clientele, as well as culinary fans around the world. Co-owner and Chef Kirsten Dixon has successfully built her reputation on the coupling of two themes: world-class cuisine and America’s last wilderness frontier. Along with her husband Carl, the couple welcomes visitors who arrive by small bush plane, dog team, or snowmobile at their remote lodge in the roadless wilderness to enjoy her stylish fare and log-cabin hospitality. Lavishly illustrated with professional photos that include some of her 100 sumptuously plated recipes, the majestic roaming wildlife out the door, and some of the most impressive landscapes under the midnight sun, this cookbook is a cooking lesson, a memoir, and an invitation into this adventurous lifestyle.
