(More customer reviews)American Cuisine at it's Best
I originally decided to buy this cookbook because of the Oprah sandwich and all that I heard about it.And then the other day I also saw another recipe from this book in the Washington Post. Oprah AND WA PO - pretty high recommendations in my opinion.Well, I did the O sandwich recipe and my family loved it - I mean loved it. Even my daughter who doesn't usually like chicken thought it was "awesome!".
What I love about about Beautiful Breads /Fabulous Fillings is that everything I've made so far is easy, unique, and most importantly, delicious.And those I haven't yet tried also appear to be just as easy and tasty. (Also you don't have to go to Chinatown looking for some herb or ingredient you've never heard of. You should have most ingredients already stocked in your kitchen.)
I was also delightfully surprised to find that there were a variety of recipes in BB and FF, not just sandwiches.In fact I made the Lamb dish (Lamb with Real Mint Sauce) last night - we had friends for dinner and it was a hit - everyone raved about it. I thought her brief food facts and and tips at the end of many of the recipes were fun, interesting, and useful.
By the way, the desserts are also noteworthy.I made the Lemon Meringue Pie.If you're having guests this pie is refreshing, light, and mouthwatering.It not only tastes fabulous, it also looks impressive!
I think this cookbook should be a staple in every American kitchen. It's American Cuisine at it's best.
BTW - The only criticism I have of this book is that the title is so long!Beautiful Breads and Fabulous Fillings: The Best sandwiches In America...so now I just call it BB and FF, and my pals know what I mean.
(I did read B. Marold's review which I thought was bogus. Marold obviously didn't actually "make" or even try any of the recipes and had this scholarly snobby POV which has nothing to do with passion for food and eating well. Reviewing really should involve actually making and tasting the recipes in my opinion - but I actually USE cookbooks, I don't just read them.)
