Customer Reviews

Fast food that 's a pleasure to eat.

As someone with very little time and no great love of cooking, I require that a well-thumbed cookbook be very high on flavor and low on work. This book is just that. The recipes are so satisfying and easy to cook that for the first time in my life, I'd rather eat my own cooking than opt for takeout.

My favorite cookbook - truly delicious, quick and easy!

I love this cookbook - it is my absolute favorite. The recipes are truly quick, easy, elegant, and delicious.

Clear recipes which really work

Like her first book, Ann Clarks Fabulous Fish, her latest collection of recipes in Quick Cuisine are simple yet tasty, sophisticated, and clearly well pre-tested. Follow her instructions and you can't go wrong. She deserves to be far better known. To quote Barbara Ensrud, author of Wine with Food, she has "a marvelous way with food."

Helpful hints for the novice along with great recipes.

This great cookbook is not just about recipes! Ann gives you "total" meal ideas from side dishes to wine suggestions to complement the menu. Her "Kitchenware" and "Staple Ingredients" sections are invaluable to new or amateur cooks and good reminders to all cooks. My favorite thing about Quick Cuisine are the the many "squares" inserted throughout to give you the helpful hint or how-to just when you need it! From "Toasting Seeds" to "Cleaning Leeks" to "Making a Simple Pan Sauce", this information gleaned from years of experience is passed on in simple terms even I can understand!
