Amazing cake recipes!5
I received this cookbook as a Christmas gift last year from my sister who lives in Seattle. As I live in the midwest, I thought there wouldn't be a lot of recipes I could use daily. I was WRONG! This cookbook has some of the most outstanding recipes in more categories than almost any in my collection. The cake recipes, which are pre-world war two (translation, magical, yummy, fool proof concotions), inspired me to not ony conquer my fear of the layer cake, but to trimumph and pull out my great grandmother's cake stand! I love this cookbook! Atkinson has a wonderful writing style he uses to begin each chapter that makes this cookbook more than just a collection of recipes.

Any West Coast cookbook collection - indeed, any who love regional cookbooks - will love WEST COAST COOKING.5
From wild salmon from Alaska to Washington apples and mushrooms, chef and food writer Greg Atkinson explores the entire length of the West Coast and its culinary specialties, providing cookbook that is part history and part recipe collection. Here are nearly four hundred dishes, from Grilled Tuna Steaks with Papaya Lime to Chicken Enchiladas - many offering personal reflections, culinary insight, and the author's gift for description. Don't expect the flowery color photos so many cookbooks hold - do expect the flowery language so many leave out. Any West Coast cookbook collection - indeed, any who love regional cookbooks - will love WEST COAST COOKING.
