A recipe to be revealed
I just returned from France where the leaves began turning, the rain saturated color, and I wore a colorful scarf everyday.
Autumn had arrived in La Dordogne.
Just like these tiny, tiny crabapples.
The workshop went very well and I met some amazing women from all over the world. More on it later when I can catch my breath a bit.
And it’s finally October. October 2012, the month I so anxiously waited for the last two years as I was working on my book. Can I tell you how thrilled I am? I hope you will allow me to spend some time talking about it as the official publication date (October 23rd) approaches.
I also wanted to tell you that “Small Plates and Sweet Treats” is available for preorder right now. These are some of the book sellers in the US where you can order it from…
The book will also be sold at Anthropologie, which I am really excited about.
It is also available for preorder in Europe from…
Many of you have reached to ask me if it will be available in Australia. It will indeed in November. Please see here.
Oh, and it is currently being translated to German!
To celebrate the upcoming launch of “Small Plates and Sweet Treats” I would love to share a recipe from inside the book with you. How does that sound?
All you need to do is leave a comment and let me know if you would like to see a recipe for a savory small plate or a sweet treat.
Which one will it be?
Small Plate…
…. or Sweet Treat?
I will announce the winner tomorrow and will be back with one of my favorite recipes from inside the book. Hope you will like it too.
Oh congrats Aran! Again! You must be so excited!
And I vote for… sweet!!
How exciting!
I’d love to see a recipe for a savory small plate.
Cheers,
Rosa

Yo también quiero un sweet! Voy directa a reservar tu libro! Felicidades Aran!
Hi Aran,
My name is Elena and I’m an avid reader of your blog and an even more avid tester and taste-er of your recipes;-)! I also dream to visit the Basque Country one day… It will be soon, I hope! And because we talk about dreams, I’ve dreamed about your natillas recipe (I guess that I’m in for the sweet treat;-)!) since your last autumn post about Vermont and your friend Nadia’s house on the hill!
I can barely wait October 23! Could I send you the book for signing (we leave in Upstate New York and it would be difficult for me to get at one of your book signing events)? It would mean the world to me…
Thank you!
The photos themselves are very delicious. I love every single post here. All the best to the book launch!
After baking so many sweet things, yesterday, I vote for a savory small plate, pretty please! =]
and, simply, reading your posts and seeing your excitement and joy in what you do – I am/have been so happy for you!
xxo
Awesome!! I vote for a savory small plate!!
Can’t wait to get your book:)
Thank you guys. I love the enthusiasm.
Elena- most certainly. Please email me at aran@arangoyoaga.com to discuss details.
Small Plate! Congratulations again – well deserved. Can’t wait to get my hands on it.
Small plate. Savoury over sweet!
Sweet Treat!
Congrats for the book!

El libro debe ser una maravilla y sinceramente con poder disfrutar de una de sus recetas ya me conformaría. Pero por decir alguna casi me decanto por samll.
Besos,
Congratulations on the book Aran!!!
And I would love to see a savory small plate please..
I am a fan of savory dishes in the fall, so my vote is for a savory small plate.
p.s. I found your blog via Whole Living. Thought you’d enjoy knowing who your new subscribers are as a result of that gorgeous article.
Definitely want to see a sweet treat! Congrats on the book!
Will buy my book @ Anthro – my vote is for small plates
Ooo, this is exciting for all of us too!
But how cruel of you to ask us to choose! I don’t want to choose, I want the whole book NOW!
And since fall is here in Canada too, I won’t be choosing sweet or savory, but rather, something with squash. I bought several different kinds and need inspiration to cook them. :)
Thanks for this upcoming sneak peek!
sweet treat!
Congrats! I vote for a savory small plate! I can’t wait to see which one is chosen!
Hola Aran!
no puedo esperar a tener una copia de tu libro! lo tengo el primero de mi wish list. Pero no sé si esperarme, ¿hay algún proyecto para publicarlo en español?
Muchas gracias por compartir tanto en tu blog, besos desde madrid,
Victoria
pd. ah, voto por receta salada!
I say – small plate! I adore your photos, they are gorgeous!
It seems like you guys are evenly divided between one and the other :)
Heather Jane- oh that’s wonderful about Whole Living. Glad you enjoyed it. The team was amazing and the story came out beautifully.
Thank you!
ZORIONAK ARAN!!! Small plates please!
Congrats! I can’t wait to get your book (I assume it will be out on the same date in Canada). I would love to see a sweet treat recipe…but really any of your recipes are great so I’ll be pleased either way. Again congratulation for your book.
I would love to see a sweet treat recipe! I definitely look forward to reading your book from beginning to end when it is released. :)
This is a surprisingly difficult choice, but I’m going with small plate! Congrats on the lovely book.
Hi Aran,
my smiling got even bigger and bigger when I read that your book is also translated to German :) Do you have already an idea when it might be published?
Regards, Eva
Savory small plate!! I can’t wait to see this cookbook!
What a fantastic and intriguing giveaway!
I would love to receive a small plate recipe. Fingers crossed!
Your book looks so beautiful!
I vote for a small plate.
A small plate! (A soup, perhaps? Your soups are absolutely divine – I made the Red Kuri squash soup at least a dozen times last fall/winter.)
- Kris
Eva- I am not certain when that will be but as I know more I will let you guys know. I am excited to have my book translated to German! :)
Thank you!
So exciting, Aran! I just pre-ordered my copy last night. :)
I’d be happy to see either, but I’ll cast my vote for a ‘sweet treat’.
Sweet treat, please!
I would love to see a savory small plate. Congrats on your new book!
A sweet treat.. Good luck with the book!!! Wish you all success!! :)
Many congratulations Aran! What an achievement, and what a spectacular blog, beautiful pictures and writing.
I have a blog too and am inspired by you and what you have accomplished.
I am already for the most part gluten free in my cooking, but am trying to achieve 100% gluten, dairy and sugar free in my baking… so, I would love a sweet treat!
Otra vez, de una compatriota (aunque yo soy andaluza) a otra: enhorabuena!! bravo!

Wonderful and exciting to have such a fantastic reception for your book… a dream come true!

Hola Aran, desde que Maider me habló (mejor dicho, me dejó un mensaje) de tu blog, he venido siguiendote. Y la verdad es que es un placer ver las fotos tan bonitas que haces, pero además están las deliciosas recetas sin gluten, tan necesarias en mi día a día. Me gustaría ver tu libro publicado en español y poderme hacer con un ejemplar. Mi enhorabuena por tan gran bonito trabajo.
Mucha suerte y muchas felicidades.

Aran,
How you’ve inspired me to cook with less wheat, and now food blog! A newbie indeed but without leaders like you.. where would we newbies be? I have a 10-yr-old son who is a sweet tooth maniac, so it has to be a Sweet Treat choice for me. He’d chastise me otherwise! Love the Dordogne – used to spend childhood hols there caravanning!
I have only just discovered your blog but can already see myself whiling away many hours reading it… Your recipes seem delicious and your photography is beautiful. Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your book! Oh and I hope to see a sweet recipe but a small plate will be great too, it’s a win-win!
To my German friends… I have news about when my book will be translated into German…
AT Verlag plans on publishing in Fall 2013.
Exciting. Thank you!!
I am a new reader and have been enjoying your posts and lovely photos. Savory plate please, even though I LOVE all things sweet!
Congratulations on the book! I can’t wait to get a copy once it’s out! I would love a recipe a savory recipe for cool weather approaching us this Fall season. You’re beautiful images have inspired me to eat more gluten-free too!
