Wonderful Book

Don't let its humble appearance fool you, this is a great book on sauces and gravies. True to Cook's Illustrated's methodology, the book gives background testing info and the best recipe. Cook's prefers recipes that are quick and flavorful and this book follows suit. If you are looking for a tradional simmer-all-day type of sauce, this is not the book for you. My only complaint is that there is only one recipe for barbecue sauce -- a Kansas City style sauce. I also enjoy vinegar-based sauces, so that was a little disappointing.
