Book Reviews of Fast Food My WayBook Review: You need this cookbook in your library Summary: 5 Stars
This book is phenominal! I made the "Zesty Pork Chops" the other night...quick, easy and made it for friends who all said "wow! I want this recipe!"
This book was given to me as a gift, and I regret that I just "filed it away" for almost 2 years! until I thought...I'm going to make 1 recipe out of every cookbook I own"...well, that could take a full year of cooking....I started with this book and I haven't put it down since! Great appetizers, desserts, mains, etc! YOU'VE GOT TO GET THIS BOOK!
Book Review: Fun & fast Summary: 4 Stars
I love Jacques Pepin, especially in his lack of snobbery and his use of innovative techniques that take fat & calories out of food without using low-fat substitutions or sacrificing flavor. Proof of both: his unapologetic use of ketchup in many recipes in this book. One problem I have with his recipes, though, is that they are difficult to improvise on. It's true with this book as well as with Cooking with Claudine. But if you follow the recipes, the food is fabulous and easy to prepare.
Book Review: Great book to buy! Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutelly love this book. I love to cook and love good food unfortunatelly like many I don't have the time, expecially with a new baby that requires my attention constantly. This book has been great. I use it practically every day. The recipes are easy to follow and they are delicious. I love his show also and record it every saturday. If you like good meals but don't have the time to spend the whole day in the kitchen get this book, it is definetely worht every penny.
Book Review: Jacques Pepin, the master food technician does it again. Summary: 5 Stars
What else can you say about Jacques? If you don't like his style of cooking you probably don't enjoy eating.
His preperations and recipes are always the picture of simplicity.Yet his flavors leave you thinking his dishes took hours to prepare.
I really thnk the true genius of this man is his mastery of the technic of preperation.
I have over 350 cookbooks but I have enjoyed making more recipes from his books than from any of the others in my collection.
Book Review: Delicious Fast Summary: 4 Stars
Jaques offers a number of fast dishes that taste like they've been cooking all day. The recipes are easy to follow and brought a fresh new taste to my kitchen. I frequently turn to this book both on a busy weeknight after work and a lazy Sunday afternoon. The book is a companion to the TV show that currently airs on public television. It is by no means all inclusive but certainly worth having in your kitchen - Pick it up.
