Customer Reviews

Good Stuff!

I really like this book, and always keep it in easy reach. I already have several favorite recipes, including Ravioli in Sage Brown Butter Sauce (my fav), Dessert Wontons (my husband's fav), and Ham and Swiss Pockets (so easy!). Most of the recipes taste like they were so hard to make, and they weren't -- and I am a novice cook, so if I say it's easy, it is! As far as an earlier reviewer's complaint about the "copious use of butter, oil and heavy cream," this isn't a Lite Cooking Recipe Book, and it never claimed to be. It claims to have "simple and sensational recipes," and it fulfills that claim just fine. And, by the way, butter? tastes goooood. :)

Fantastic!

This is a great cookbook for the beginner and experienced cook. The recipes are easy yet elegant. The variety is excellent. Lorraine Runde Stamford, CT

Sophisticated and simple

I've used this cookbook many times since I bought it and have been very happy with it! The main dishes I've tried have all been excellent, but haven't taken a lot of effort to make. The authors seem to have a wonderful grasp of what foods go together and what spices make a meal perfect. Definitely a worthwhile addition to my cookbook collection!

GREAT BOOK

This book has wonderful, easy to make dishes that come out looking great and tasting even better.It's a must-buy!

I had no idea you could do so much with three ingredients!

I've tried a few of the recipes in this cookbook and they've all been great. Love the idea of three ingredients--makes it so easy to plan dinner. The recipes are simple but sophisticated. The directions are clear, and I like having suggestions for a few extra ingredients that I can throw in if I have them. Overall, a cookbook worth buying.
