southerncooker from Boomer, NC

This book has great color photos of many of the dishes. I enjoy watching
Tyler's Ultimate and some of the other shows he has had on the Food Network
and so naturally I had to have this book.

I only have one complaint about this book some recipes continue on the
following page so you often have to keep turning the page back and forth when
making a recipe. This is Tyler's first cookbook and at the time it was wrote
he was host of Food 911.

You'll find recipes for down home country type food such as meatloaf and
chicken pot pie. Also included is the less familiar to home cooks, things
such as Dim Sum and Sushi. Finally there are also recipes that many might
consider gourmet, such as Chilled Pea Shots with Spicy Crab and Roast Prime
Rib of Beef with Horseradish Crust and Wild Mushrooms. Seems there is
something for everyone no matter what type of things you're looking to cook.

For Mother's day one year, Sarita chose to make me the Blueberry Scones with Lemon
Glaze. Unfortunately the blueberries weren't ripe in NC and they were
extremely expensive at the local stores, so she substitute strawberries
instead. They were delicious with the lemon sauce and even good cold. Besides
having a warm one on Mother's Day I took one a day for my morning coffee break
until the rest were all gone. Of course I shared a few with Harold and Sarita
as well. Dexter doesn't like them.
