 2008-07-24 - Our New Favorite Cookbook!
This is the first (and only) cookbook we've ever had which is as much fun to read as a fast-paced, well-written novel...plus, it has great, color photos! If you're a fan of public radio's "The Splendid Table", you will love this cookbook. If you've never had the pleasure of listening to Lynne Rosetto Kasper spin culinary gold from the straw of everyday ingredients, "How to Eat Supper" will probably get you to tune in to your local NPR station and enjoy the show. We have made quite a few of the dishes from this cookbook already, and each one was an unqualified success. The recipes are clear and easy-to-follow. Many, if not most, feature alternatives where, with the change of a few ingredients, you can re-invent the dish for a new taste experience. The tips scattered throughout the book are excellent and useful for cooks of all levels. I can't think of one way to improve upon this cookbook...unless it is to receive it as a gift rather than buy it. "How to Eat Supper" is a must for anyone who likes to cook...or eat.
2008-07-01 - Delicious and practical
As a huge fan of the Public Radio show I was delighted when this book came out. Rossetto-Kasper is a practical enough cook to know that supper is often a hurried affair, often involving a bag of Fritos. The recipes are easy to prepare and easy to upgrade. My most-used recipe is the cheater's version of homemade broth, which starts with canned chicken or vegetable broth to which you add white wine, herbs and spices and aromatics. This versatile broth is used in any number of dishes to good advantage. I also enjoy the taste tests including canned tomatoes, canned chicken broth, etc. This has become a staple of my collection in under two weeks.
2008-06-27 - Delicious every time
I love this cookbook. I make something from it almost every week and every recipe has been so delicious. Very easy, quick recipes that are healthy and interesting. I love the Splendid Table and this book is just as good.
2008-06-25 - My new favorite cookbook!
I recently bought this book and have already made several of the recipes. They are simple, but soo yummy. I like the extra comments and hints that are added.
2008-06-23 - More than a cookbook
This cookbook is better than it sounded on the radio. The recipes are imaginative and quick, the food tips are informative and off-beat and the style is personal and breezy. I've enjoyed this new cookbook enough to buy extra copies for gifts.
