Customer Reviews

Love this book, but here is a correction!!!

This is a great book, I have made several recipes, and they were perfect! But I just tried the peanut brittle recipe, and it was terrible!!! It was so salty. I thought the amount of salt seemed like a lot (1 1/2 tablespoons) but the recipe says the salt is the key ingredient, so I forged ahead. Yup, I was right, it was way too salty. I thought I had seen a recipe similar to this one in one of McCullough's Best of the Year series, so I went searching, and found the exact same recipe, from the same restaurant. And the amount of salt was 1 1/2 TEASPOONS!! So I made it again, with the correct amount, and it is fabulous! So just make sure you correct this if you own the book. Don't let this deter you from getting the book, I just pointed this out to save others from throwing away a lot of ingredients.

You'll want to make just about every recipe

You can recreate your favorite restaurant dishes, yet receipes are not that complicated. Began reading the book with a pad of post-its by my side, by the time I was half-way through, every page was bookmarked! The meat loaf is superb and the roasted chicken to die for!
