Book Reviews of Totally Teatime Cookbook (Totally Cookbooks)
Book Review: Wonderful value for a small gift or home library addition
Summary: 4 Stars
The Totally Teatime Cookbook is an excellent value for the cost. It would be a splendid 'stocking stuffer,' hostess gift, or small 'remembrance.' As a sampler of tea time recipes, it is a nice introduction - though I would not recommend this book for those who are afternoon tea devotees, because the selections are very basic.
The attempt at wit does not quite work (and the clever and wry comments should always be a staple of a book about British cuisine.) The author seems to be trying to laugh at American insular ways, but it is a bit too 'folksy' to be funny.
The sampling of recipes is a nice introduction to afternoon tea (though I would shudder to think anyone would accept the author's suggestion of allowing the substitution of sparkling water or lemonade for tea - is nothing sacred?) :) The sandwich selection is small but very inexpensive and quick to prepare. Baking selections, including several varieties of scones, are more diverse and should satisfy those with a love for the art.
This is by no means a book for the tea afficianado, but I have given it a four star rating because it is a very good value.
