Can't Get Enough of These Recipes
I was stunned to see that a previous reviewer had given this book one star. I was just getting ready to forward a link to the book to another friend, to whom I have been raving about not only this book but all of the books in this series. I'm a vegeterian, and I've always been able to find some delicious vegeterian recipes that I've made multipe times. That's not always the case with grown-up versions of international cookbooks. This book on Brazilian food is no exception. The Hearts of Palm salad, the Brazilian Beans & Rice, the Fish Stew, the Lime Hot Pepper Sauce, the Brazilian Rolls (I may not be remembering the exact names of the dishes) are all terrific. I think these recipes would be challenging for kids who have no aptitute in the kitchen, but they're perfect for this 37-year-old. The ingredients are easy to find, the directions are clear. I've yet to find an adult version of an international cookbook that I like as much as Locricchio's. Yes, I do agree that the books are expensive. I've been checking them out from my local library. One of these days, I may just plunk down the cash and buy my favorites.

The Cooking Of Brazil (Superchef
Totally dissapointed in content and size, in view if the variety of recipes other books offer at a fraction of the price, this one was a total waste of my time, simply nothing good to say about it and of course it was the most expensive of all.......goes to show "stat away fronm the superstars and stick with the locals"
