do believe Ive just found a new “goto” cookbook!

Being someone who loves to cook and try new things, but has no specialized training, I appreciate cookbooks that not only provide the recipes, but also give us tips and tricks for making the dishes turn out as tasty and beautiful as those you find in restaurants.
The recipes collected in Fine Cooking Comfort Food:Recipes for Soups, Stews, Casseroles amp More are for the home cook who wants to bring something special to the table without having to take lessons or spend a lot of time fussing over procedures and techniques.
Most of the ingredients are readily available in your grocery store and along with the easy to follow instructions and the absolutely mouthwatering pictures, youre sure to create dishes that will impress your family and friends without making you a wreck before you even get them to the table.


With basics like Tomato Soup and French Farmers Soup to the more exotic recipes like Thai Hot and Sour Shrimp Soup, I was pleased with the number and wide variety of soup recipes offered.
I absolutely love the cooler Fall and Winter months, and even early Spring when theres still a chill in the air, With the house closed up and a pot of my favorite soup simmering on the stove, nothing says “home” better, The recipes are all so delicious sounding that the only problem I can foresee is deciding which ones to make!

Then I got to the pasta section Being the starch addict that I am, I had to stop and pay homage to the traditional Baked Macaroni and Cheese recipe on page eightyone, which I promptly decided to make this week.
I had a mental grocery list all made up and was ready to head to the market but then I discovered the PulledPork Macaroni and Cheese with Caramelized Onions and Four Cheeses recipe, and well Just tell me that doesnt sound todiefor!

And the Breakfast and Brunch section Who doesnt love starting their day with a hot, fluffy omelet or waffles drenched in syrup What a wonderful assortment of easy to make, sure to become favorites recipes.


Well, I could go on and on, but if youre not convinced by now, theres just no hope for you.
So just go on with your silly self and head to McDonalds where theyve got a piece of deep fried cardboard on a stale bun with your name on it.
The rest of us will be planning our meals around the recipes found in this book, Soups, stews, casseroles, sandwiches and much, much more yes, like I said, I do believe Ive found a new “goto” cookbook!

Copy Gratis The Taunton Press If you enjoy trying new things in the kitchen, are looking for that spectacular 'date night' recipe sure to impress, have a social function to cater, or just want to step up from the standard homecooked comfort food kind of menu, this is the cookbook for you.


Overall, I found the recipes included here to be very interesting and intriguing and plan to try several myself, The ingredients lists, generally speaking, were not too 'exclusive,' meaning you shouldn't have difficulty in finding most of the items in your local grocery store or farmer's market/produce stand.


The organization of content was welldone, but the index was not included in my copy, so I can not speak to whether it was too heavy, all inclusive, etc.


There were many good tips, and related to the recipe info scattered throughout, inset in text boxes to set them apart so that they catch the eye amongst all the other content on the page, but I would have liked to see all of that also added in as an appendix to the rest for easy reference.
Beautiful color photos showcase the dishes as well,

I would call the skill level required for these recipes to be 'intermediate, ' Most of them require some work and processing of ingredient to make, but there were few truly difficult inclusions, plus there were several that seemed very simple.


Many of the recipes found here are new spins on old classics, but there are some things here that are new to me, and i would agree with the title, that these are bigtime 'comfort foods' covering the full range of categories from appetizers to desserts, but with somthing of a gourmet twist.


While probably a lil fancified to try putting on my table except for special occassions, I would give it a solid four out of five.
This is yet another winner from the 'Fine Cooking, . . ' range of books which was supplied in eformat and that I am definately going to buy in print to add to my ever growing cookery book collection.


It has what it says on the cover and that is a book full of mouth watering recipes for everyday comfort foods.
It contains recipes for breakfasts amp brunch, sandwiches, soups amp chowders, stews amp chilis, pasta amp grains, casseroles and desserts, It even has recipes for side dishes to accompany the mains,

Each recipe has clear and easy to follow steps which help you to produce the perfect meal everytime, Nutritional information is also given so you know how many calories, fats etc that is in each serving, All the ingredients are easily recognised and obtained without having to search out specialist retailers,

This will definately be a fine addition to MY kitchen!
