Book Review: You'll Find Some Way, Way Good Fondues in this Delightful Book
Summary: 5 Stars

Seven years ago my husband Dub and I sailed into Whangarai Harbour in New Zealand. On our way in I spied some friends or ours, Gayle and John, who we'd met in Tahiti. They were Kiwis and they were ending their five year circumnavigation, home at last. We anchored close to their boat and later dinghied over for sundowners (usually Coke and Rum). That evening, as usual, we told tall tales of our adventures at sea and we congratulated ourselves on being in this wonderful place at this wonderful time. Later, as we were saying our goodbyes, Gayle gave me her set of the Salamandar Book of Series Cookbooks. They are sold by HP Books in the States as paperbacks. Gayle carried these books around the planet and now she was giving them to me, complete with her notes (written in the books) on the recipes, how well she and John liked certain dishes, which were their favorites, how hard they were to prepare. She knew I was a cook and she thought I'd appreciate them. She was right.

Like all the books in the series "The Book of Fondues" is about five inches wide and about a foot tall, making them kind of unique among cookbooks. But one should not be put off because of the odd shape, these are real books and you can find mighty darned good recipes in them although one might wonder if it was necessary to devote a whole book to fondue. I know I did at first, but once I got into the book, it quickly became one of my favorites. After all, what better way to start an evening than with a Coke and Rum and some delicious fondue as you watch that lucky old sun fade away. Here you'll find fondues of all stripes and flavors from the Classic Swiss Fondue on Page 10 to the Creamy Kiwi Dip at the end of the book. Almost of these fondues are, as my friend Jack Priest's young son Devon would say, "Way, way good!"
