Nathalie Dupree is GREAT!!

I have all of Nathalie Dupree's cookbooks. I think she is one of the best in the business. Her recipes are ones you can actually cook. I wish she had DVD's available from her books. If you want a cookbook that is wonderful, this is it!!!!!!!!! It is fun to read, too. I love it.....

It really is worth buying!

I practically grew up watching Nathalie Dupree on PBS. (Actually, if the food network had been around then, I don't think my mom would have been able to pry me away from the tv.) I really enjoyed watching her cook. My mom & I used to call her "Miss Messy" since every time she made something, she usually managed to get a good portion of ingredients outside of the bowl or off the plate. This of course makes me feel better now when I'm baking and look down at the flour all over my now big pregnant belly. Buy this book, make a mess and enjoy these great recipes! My favorite is the peanut roasted pork tenderloin! (For more info on the chef & to buy an autographed copy, go to www.nathalie.com)-Mrs. S. King (I grew up in the South but now live in New England.)

Nathalie Dupree is a God!

I have several of her cookbooks. All are wonderfull and are part of my families traditional receipes. I have learned many shortcuts and "new" ways to prepare Southern favorites. Thanks Nathalie!!

If I could only have one cookbook this would be it.

This book of southern recipes has changed my life. Nathalie Dupree's two-hour turkey has taken the stress out of Thanksgiving. Her turkey scallopine has made me a legend in my kids' minds. Anticipation of her cheesestraws has made my friends practically drool. Her pineapple upside-down cake is what dreams are made of. The New Southern Cooking recipes are the perfect combination of simplicity and delight.
