Customer Reviews

cookbook
My daughter in law had placed this item in her bridal registry last year, but did not get it. This made a perfect Christmas gift, being very reasonably priced and quick delivery from Amazon.

really really like this one
great series, great book. it's now part of my weeknight rotation. everything i've tried has been wonderful. i especially like the chicken and peppers recipe. the book itself is great the way good williams-sonoma books are; beautiful pictures of everything and you know it will be fantastic, even if you haven't made it before. the recipes generally take me a bit longer than the stated prep time, but you still get great results, fast.

Great recipes, beautiful cookbook, good tips
I happen to love the beautiful presentation of WS cookbooks, and this book was no exception. In addition to the easy to make recipes (for the most part), there are suggested sides as well. Also, a handy cooking and shopping "how-to" is at the end of the book. Great for a beginner cook, or just someone who doesn't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen!

(minus one star because I would have like to see more recipes in the 20- and 30- minute section)
