I read reviews on Amazon, and bought it as a gift for a family member. I love that they explain everything they tried before making the recipes.
The chicken parm recipe is the best thing I've ever eaten. There is SO much in this book, you won't want to put it down.
This book is amazing. I didn't cook often before getting this book, but this book is a great starting place as well as a great book for those who know their way around a kitchen pretty well.
Buy this book for you and a friend. I'm newly married and did not start cooking until I bought this book.
I started reading it and thought it was so good, I bought one for myself.
It's easy to read and follow and the recipes always turn out great. If you love food, and you want to impress people with your cooking skills (even if you're a beginner, and I am, believe me) you need this cookbook.
It's full of all kinds of tips, product recommendations, trial-and-error recipe stories, and diagrams. It's HUGE, but I can accept the extra space it takes on my counter because it's so useful.
I'll make this review relatively short and sweet. It was perfect.
Perfection. This book is amazing.
I made lamb tagine tonight (a Moroccan lamb stew with dried fruits, spices, tomatoes & onions) and my lamb-hating fiance had seconds.
It really helps eliminate that little nagging voice I sometimes get "Maybe I should add 3 eggs instead of 2" etc, knowing that they already tried several combinations of ingredients to arrive at the given recipe.One of the best cookbooks I have used. This book is great: Clarity on the recipes, and background explanation if you want to know more about the lengths they went to in perfecting the recipe.
It is a little larger than I expected but it will be used for years and years in our family I am very happy with the cookbook.
There are recipes on here that I have made over 20 times. I love this book. A great gift for the bachelor, single gal, or newlywed couple. I can't say that for any other cookbook I own. it is a staple in our kitchen and THE go-to book when it comes to anything related to cooking. It's well written with detailed reviews on equipment and ingredients.
