Delectable Book

I got this one for Christmas and have tried perhaps 18-20 recipes since (I'm addicted to soups and stews).

Often, I have followed recipes in other books which were very disappointing, and sometimes very poorly seasoned. If I repeated the recipe, I often had to adjust seasonings, etc., to make it more palatable. However, every single one turned out perfect! Though I have a habit of improvising, I'm confident that I will not likely change these recipes.

Efficient, healthy, delicious

I like soups and stews because they are often efficient to prepare and it's easy to make healthy choices. This book keeps you from getting into a rut - lots of new ideas and I have never been dissapointed in the recipes. 8-9 of the recipes are ones that I use regularly. Most are easy to "doctor" to direct the dish to become more of what you like or use more of what is in season. One of my favorites and highly recommended!

Great book

I usually make a pot of soup every two weeks. I have tried almost all of the recipes in this book and have never been disappointed. There are soups for everyone in here. I have tried many soup books and always find myself coming back to this one. The author really knows how to use spices to make the soup excellent. It's a must for all soup lovers.
