Classic Justin Wilson

I recently ordered this book to replace the original that I've owned for twenty five years. I wore the ink off of the pages. Justin Wilson taught me to cook. This was his first published cook book. His later books are all based on the recipes contained in this book. If you're debating on which of Justin's books to buy, start with this one. You won't regret it

justin wilson cookbook

the justin wilson cookbook was for my husband. he has always loved him, he's hilarrious! my husband is a great cook, he really enjoys this cookbook! A-1!

Good food

All the recipes from this book I have cooked have turned out good to excellent. Some of the recipes are for somewhat large portions, however can be easily reduced if you know a bit of math.

Excellent, I garontee!!

This book a primer on New Orleans cuisine ala Justin Wilson. I remember his cooking show and always got a kick out of how he would pour a little wine in his pots and drink the rest. You could see that this man enjoyed food, and this translates into his book. I credit Mr. Wilson with teaching me how to make a decent roux because before I read his recipe, I always used butter or vegetable oil. Hey, I'm from Brooklyn, what did I know from a roux? The olive oil made a huge difference in my gumbo. I was even inspired to try jambalaya -- it was yummy!!On a past trip to New Orleans, I purchased one of the Junior League Cookbooks which has an abundance of recipes and tips. However, the other book relies on a lot of processed and prepared ingredients. Those recipes are also a lot fussier. I prefer Wilson's cookbook for its simplicity. He also includes plenty of local color and anecdotes.

Good food & a Good Sense of Humor

His successful television show on PBS was just a sampling of his gift for food prepreation & for making people laugh, with fans internationally, this book is a perfect example of what DELICIOUS is! If the recipes are followed correctly, the result is outstanding, if the recipes are not followed correctly, then it is not the fault of Mr. Wilson :-)
