The Gourmet Cookbook: More than 1000 recipes: member book reviews (Single Review Display)

(4 reviews)

The more I cook from this book, the more impressed I am. Great range of recipes with very useful and informative sidebars. Aside from the infamous issue with the yellow print of the titles in the first printing, the fonts are well-chosen and easy on the eyes. Also, as a book lover, I am very happy that they didn't scrimp on the binding. It's a big book and it's not going to fall apart any time soon even if I use it every night.

A lot of thoughtful effort went into this book. As far as I can tell, each and every recipe starts with an introduction that may discuss the origin or creator of the dish, or hints on shopping for a particular ingredient, or serving/menu suggestions.
