Hugh Carpenter’s cookbooks feature many beautiful full-color food photographs taken by his wife, Teri Sandison, with each recipe placed on dishes made by America’s top glass and ceramic artists. Visually stunning and creative, Hugh’s recipes are innovative but sensible, with unusual but complementary combinations of flavors and textures.

Hugh teaches many of his recipes in his Camp Napa Culinary and San Miguel vacation cooking classes and in cooking classes across the country. His acclaimed culinary vacation packages offer the novice and expert cook alike a terrific way to become familiar with his cooking techniques and fabulous recipes. Enjoy his cookbooks, then come and enjoy the camaraderie and easy learning atmosphere of his cooking classes in California’s exquisite wine country landscape or the lovely, historical San Miguel, Mexico.

Hugh’s books can be ordered from any bookstore or purchased online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble or Penguin Random House.
