Dessert & Book Tasting: Flavors & Stories from Around the World
Advertisement
Described as "literary speed dating", NMPL Book Tastings will help adult readers broaden their reading horizons and discover exciting new book adventures. Participants will have the chance to sample a variety of books in 5 minute time increments, and when the bell sounds, they can decide to bring the book home, try another title, or do both. Explore new authors, genres, and series that you might not have tried before. No more complaints of, "I don't have anything to read!" Plus we'll have hot tea and delicious homemade goodies to sample!
Book Menu:
Travel around the world with a selection of fiction & non-fiction books from authors all over the globe.
Dessert Menu:
• Bolo Polana - A popular Mozambican dessert, this cake features ground cashews and cooked potatoes, both of which come together to make an undeniably decadent cake. Bolo means "cake" in Portuguese, and Polana is the name of a neighborhood in Mozambique's capital city, Maputo.
• Irish Soda Bread - A rustic, quick bread that uses baking soda as a leavening agent instead of yeast, resulting in a dense, hearty loaf with a crusty exterior and a soft interior packed full of raisins.
• Banoffee Pie - This English dessert combines a crunchy graham cracker crust, soft and sweet dulce de leche, thick slices of fresh banana, and a mountain of billowy whipped cream. Everyone who tries a slice is instantly hooked!
