Excellent for beginners and experienced cooks

This is one of my all-time favorite cookbooks. Unlike other low-ingredient cookbooks, Ms. Kosoff doesn't cheat by using creamy soup mixes or other prepared items. Most of the recipes are simple, delicious, and easy to prepare. They are recipes that I have served at dinner parties over and over again, with only 5 ingredients preparation time is generally short and that means less time in the kitchen. Love David's Chicken Salad (capers is one of the five ingredients) and delicious soups.

Absolutely great!

It's a great cooking book, because it does not tell you to spend 100 bucks before cooking something that would cost 10 in a restaurant... Five ingredients are usually enough to make a good meal. It's simple, specific and accurate and it does not require any broad knowledge about cooking. It's very good for men and all the people who like fast cooking. I wouldn't survive without it.
