The Buttered Tin’s Alicia Hinze featured in new James Beard Foundation cookbook (free for download!)

Lowertown.info—Alicia Hinze of Lowertown’s cafe, bakery and breakfast spot The Buttered Tin is one of 20 women in the restaurant industry featured in the James Beard Foundation’s new cookbook, A Place at the Table, published in collaboration with Audi and released at the beginning of Women’s History Month.

The digital cookbook—free for download on James Beard’s site!—features twenty recipes from the foundation’s Women’s Entrepreneurial Leadership program, “created to support women at any stage of their career, from established culinary figures to budding leaders of the future, and provide them with the tools and opportunity to succeed.” The cookbook also offers a directory of over 70 women-led, -owned, and -operated establishments across the country including bars, catering companies, and restaurants.

Hinze’s recipe is for “The Perfect Vanilla Cake with Swiss Meringue Cream”. o.0

“Perfect for any occasion, this cake is moist, flavorful, has an excellent crumb, and goes with everything. The buttercream, meanwhile, has a nice creamy texture and isn’t overly sweet. It’s an excellent all-purpose frosting and filling for a wide variety of baked goods, and also works well for piping decorations.”
