Steaklover's Companion: 170 Savory Recipes from America's Greatest Chefs 2 reviews
Frederick J. Simon
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1997
A Protein Lover's Dream...
I have been on the protein diet for nearly 4 years now and have been successful, however you do get so sick of plain old steaks. This book is a godsend. The first recipe in the book is from Emeril Lagasse and looks wonderful. That's the next one I am going to make. I made the Strip steaks stuffed with Garlic and Creamy Chard. This recipe is phenomenal. This book is definitely worth every ...

William Morrow Cookbooks, 1996
Excellent!
We cook alot of Italian dishes and this book has not failed us yet. Veal Chops Stuffed with Spinich has become our favorite "company dish". When we aren't sure what we want for dinner or if we feel like trying something new, this is the first book we consult.

Vegetables 18 reviews
James Peterson
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1998
Useful Basic Reference
This is the kind of cookbook I keep--a reference book that gives the basics, is complete, and is well-organized. I decided to expand the range of vegetable dishes I serve because of the wide variety of produce available, it seemed to offer so much possibility and creativity. But all this variety seemed a bit overwhelming. I didn't have any idea how to start with things like parsnips. Most ...

Judy Zeidler
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1999
Quick, easy, delicious AND kosher
'The 30-minute Kosher Cook' recipe book by Judy Zeidler is brilliant. Truthfully, I haven't tried every single recipe, but I have tried the majority of them and they are everything they are supposed to be - quick, easy, tasty & of course, (the best of all) kosher recipes. I especially like her bread recipes and the Apple Pizza (for Rosh HaShana) was also a success. If you're a kosher (or not) ...

365 Easy One Dish Meals Anniversary Edition5 reviews
Natalie H. Haughton
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1996
The ultimate comfort food . . .
I was raised on casseroles: tuna noodle casserole; a ground beef, tomato and elbow macaroni concoction my mother called "goolash" (not to be confused with the Hungarian dish of similar name); stuffed peppers and stuffed cabbage; ham and green beans with new potatoes. Casseroles were a good way to stretch the food budget. In addition, they were regular staples at the monthly church pot luck ...

Alfred Portale Simple Pleasures: Home Cooking from the Gotham Bar and Grill's Acclaimed Chef5 reviews
Alfred Portale, Andrew Friedman
William Morrow Cookbooks, 2004
One of the Best Examples of Modern Cooking
The book is called Simple Pleasures not Simple Cooking !!
If you want to set your tastebuds alight, then go through some of the recipes in this book.
Sure it isn't a book of simplistic recipes, of how to make your evening meal in 30 minutes or less, but that isn't what you buy this book for.
If you want a book that shows you the recipes and thinking of one of the best modern American ...

365 Ways to Cook Chicken (Anniversary Edition)18 reviews
Cheryl Sedeker
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1996
It sorta tastes like chicken
Perhaps you've forgotten what chicken tastes like. I can imagine
how you might. If you've been feasting at the rich end of the
table, your chicken has been decorated with pungent, fruity and
spicy sauces. It's been accompanied by strongly flavored
vegetables and fragrant rice or pasta and moistened with wine.
Indeed, the whole thrust of French cooking since the days of
Careme and ...

Adventures in Grilling1 review
George Hirsch
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1996
Creative, Helpful and interesting
Great meat recipies with great tips. Broken into sections by countries Germany and some of the less published countries had some creative options. There were more than a few new to the grill recipies and great ideas for exploration. The Italian and French recipies were quick stepping stones to the fun food. I would have liked to see a few more "grilling" recipies for vegatables and side ...

Art of South American Cooking4 reviews
Felipe Rojas-lombar
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1991
An overall good intro book into many South American dishes
I checked this book out of the L.A. Public Library and
found it to be very intersting. I was looking for both
Colombian and Peruvian dishes. Both countries were
represented fairly. For a book that covers many countries,
it does a good job. I recommend it and will be purchasing
it.

Amazing Soy: A Complete Guide to Buying and Cooking This Nutritional Powerhouse With 240 Recipes 7 reviews
Dana Jacobi
William Morrow Cookbooks, 2001
best book I've bought for soy recipes
very well written and the recipes are very tasty. I'm trying to replace meat in my diet and there are many recipes that taste just like meat, such as meatless tacos p.191 made with soy crumbles, tofu stir fry p.258. I actually use this cookbook more than any other. It goes way beyond just addding tofu to vegetables to create gourmet healthy meals. I also highly reccomend The Soy Zone book by B. ...

Bruce Healy
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1999
Best French buttercream recipes ever!
I'm a French cake enthusiast & home baker. I've been spending a lot of time trying to find the perfect French cake & buttercream recipes, and after reading & trying recipes from several books on the subject, I have to say "The Art of the Cake" is the best.
The book does not have lots of pretty pictures, but trust me, the taste of your first successful "Moka" or "Clichy" would give you enough ...

Apples: A Country Garden Cookbook1 review
Christopher Idone
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1993
Gorgeous series
I own this and all the Country Garden series of cookbooks. They are all visually gorgeous, and all written by professional chefs. Each book surrounds a featured ingredient which is seasonal. I must admit that many of the recipes could be considered "chi-chi," but for cookbook collectors, this series is really wonderful. I'm sorry they stopped adding to these books, and very sorry that they ...

The best cookbook I own
Of all the cookbooks I own, this is by far my favorite. I have owned it for 3 or 4 years and am trying to steadily cook every recipe. At least 10 of the recipes in this book have become standards on our menu.

America's Bread Book3 reviews
Mary D. Gubser
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1992
The possibilities are endless!
I love this book because I love to bake! It really is a shame that it is out of print because the art of this book is how the author combines an account of her culinary journey across America with the different recipes she found along the way. Bread has long been a staple of society's most basic bonds and a culture's deepest roots. The way America's regions are bound together as well as ...

All-American Chili Book1 review
Int'l Chili Society
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1995
Great Recipes!
This is a great book that mixes many recipes with short stories about the history of and antics that go on at International Chili Society contests. Also includes a number of "celebrity" recipes and many others. Would get five stars, but there are no pictures of the finished dishes to guide you by--I like to know what what I just tried to cook at least looks correct!
