Whitewater Cooks: Pure, Simple and Real Creations from the Fresh Tracks Cafe

Author: Shelley Adams

Great recipes from a celebrated resort.

Whitewater Resort in the Canadian Rockies is renowned for its spectacular scenery, deep snow and Fresh Tracks Café.

Now, Whitewater Cooks opens the kitchen doors.

With this eagerly anticipated book, home cooks can re-create chef Shelley Adams' signature dishes. Readers will enjoy over 70 recipes from the café's selection of top sellers—from warming soups to desserts—indulging in such culinary favorites as:


• Whiskey-smoked salmon chowder
• Ymir curry bowl
• Whitewater veggie burger
• Runaway train wrap
• Peppercorn, brandy and gorgonzola sauce
• Crackle top snowy mountain cookies
• Whitewater brownies.

Whitewater Resort is internationally recognized for its alpine scenery and the fine quality of its food. Now home cooks everywhere can share its most celebrated dishes.
