Rating: - A Lifesaver
I was really skeptical of this book when I received it as a gift over 10 years ago. I have dozens of cookbooks and have at least one from most of the authors whose recipes are featured in the book. Why in the world would I want what basically amounts to a recipe anthology?
Well, the first recipe I tried changed all that. It was Pasta with Vodka, and it's since become my go-to version of that dish. And it wasn't long before I'd tried many others that became favorites: Pasta with Gorgonzola, ... Read More
Rating: - Indispensable as a relatively thin quick flip reference

Rating: - Great Food Without Fuss
I have over 120 cookbooks and this is the best!!!!! This is the one cookbook I keep coming back to. I have honestly tried almost every recipe in the book, and so far everything has been very, very good and very, very easy to make. My only sadness about this book is that it is now out of print and I have to buy a used copy to replace my first one which is falling apart at the seams.

Without a doubt, this book delivers. Easy, tasty food from the very best chefs. Try the Roasted Peppers, Potatoes and Onions or any of the Pork recipes. A real favorite. In fact, I find myself going back to this over and over again, and am never disappointed.
Rating: - A lifesaver - quick, elegant recipes for last minute company
It may never rate as a "classic" cookbook, but over the last 5 years this slim tome has pulled me out of more than one last minute menu scrapes.
Recipes like Arrosto di Maile all'Alloro (Pork with Bay Leaves) and Dried Apricots baked with Vanilla set the tone - non-labor intesive recipes with a short list of ingredients -- the emphasis being on the quality of meat, produce & spices rather than fancy techniques or sauces. Barbara Kafka's classic 500 degree roasted chicken and much maligned (but ... Read More
