Italian Slow and Savory8 reviews
Joyce Goldstein

Chronicle Books, 2004

A Must Cook Book For Those Who Love Italian Food
I must admit that I own more cookbooks by Joyce Goldstein than any other author. I read them cover to cover. I am an experienced home chef and always learn new things from her books. I find they not only contain well written recipes but are educational and interesting. Italian Slow and Savory is a wonderful cookbook that covers territory not found in many other Italian cookbooks I have ...
  
  











  



  
Holistic Management: A New Framework for Decision Making11 reviews
Allan Savory, Jody Butterfield

Island Press, 1998

Real sustainability is about decision making
Sustainability has become the central drama of our time, yet within the sustainability movement there is a huge conflict. It isn't the environmentalists against the dam builders this time--it is between those who see nature mainly as a domain, reserve, or area, and those who see nature as a process. Both sides largely agree that there is a serious ecological crisis, we are on the brink, and that ...

Darra Goldstein

Harpercollins, 1993

One of my favorites!
As someone who was born and grew up in Tbilisi, I was very happy to find this book -- it captures all of my favorite recipes, and when I prepare them according to this book, they taste just like my grandma's cooking. More than just a recipe book, this is also an exploration into the rich history and culture of Georgia, and how the history shaped the cuisine. I suggest this book to everyone ...
  
  











  



  
Vegan Fire & Spice: 200 Sultry and Savory Global Recipes13 reviews
Robin Robertson

Vegan Heritage Press, 2008

Delicious - can't wait to try more!
I've hesitated to review cookbooks because I'm never sure when I've tried enough of one to warrant a review. After all, I can only comment on the bits and pieces with which I have experience. Still, the good cookbooks are worth mentioning, and this is one of the good ones. As I flip through Vegan Fire & Spice, I'm finding that just about every recipe screams "Try me!" The recipes are organized ...

The Savory Way7 reviews
Deborah Madison

Broadway, 1998

Excellent Culinary Source for Vegetarians and Others
`The Savory Way' is an early (1990) book from leading vegetarian cookbook author, Deborah Madison so, as Ms. Madison has a new book on the way, I thought it was high time for me to catch up with her body of work so I can give an informed review of how her new volume fits into her other books. Ms. Madison is a former colleague of Alice Waters and Lindsey Shere at Chez Panisse who specializes in ...
  
  











  



  
Party Nuts!: 50 Recipes for Spicy, Sweet, Savory, and Simply Sensational Nuts that Will Be the Hit of Any ...13 reviews
Sally Sampson

Harvard Common Press, 2002

Great Party Treats
This book has a recipe for every occasion. I do feel that several of the recipes are very similar in terms of the spice mixtures used, but the Balsamic Shellacked Pecan recipe alone is worth the price of the book. A great asset for hostesses or anyone that loves recipes.

Junior League of Pasadena Inc.

Junior League of Pasadena, 1998

Junior League of Pasadena does it again!
As expected, I was not disappointed by the Junior League of Pasadena's newest edition in their series of cookbooks. I didn't think anything could top their last, "California Sizzles", but "Dining by Design" is even better! I have dozens of cookbooks that remain dusty on the shelves, but both my Junior League of Pasadena cookbooks are very well worn from all of the recipes I use. Way to go! ...

Savory Scottish Recipes4 reviews
Julie Jenson McDonald

Penfield Press, 1996

We cooked a haggis--and lived to tell about it.
Encouraged by this cookbook, we bought a haggis at a shop in the Edinburgh airport. We transported this frozen cannonball home, cooked it according to directions and made the tatties and neeps as presented here. We also bravely invited guests. As we plunged the knife into the heart (literally) of the haggis, its compact contours exploded into an amazing amount of what looked like steaming cooked ...

Mary Lou Heiss

Harvard Common Press, 2006

Quite a Treat
This book is so beautiful that you might want to buy it just for that. But I've sampled quite a few of the recipes and they are wonderfully creative and delicious. This would make a terrific gift for the person who has everything. Rita Bleiman

Gluten-Free Friends: An Activity Book for Kids6 reviews
Nancy Patin Falini

Savory Palate, Inc., 2003

Great for Children with Celiac Disease!
This has really helped my daughter ( age 5 ) understand Celiac. I wish we had this when she was diagnosed two years ago. This has been a great study on what foods to eat, and how her body reacts to both gluten, and gluten free foods. Some of this is more advanced, but it's a great study to use over and over again. This is a must have book!!!

Eric Kayser's Sweet and Savory Tarts4 reviews
Eric Kayser

Flammarion, 2007

Excellent...with reservations
This is a superior tart book both for technique and a well-organized array of recipes with some excellent flavor combinations. For the knowledge of the chef, the quality of the recipes and the photography, design and layout of the book I would give it 5-stars. HOWEVER, hopefully the US publisher will do a little heavy lifting on corrections for the next printing: my advice would be to make a ...
