She has already tried several recipes and thinks it is great. She said to me...I plan to read every word in this book and this is a Large Book. After my order, I received it very quickly. Thanks.

For those of you who wrote that the recipes were "bland" or "uninteresting" it's your own fault for not figuring this fact out BEFORE you presented the meal to your families. Next time taste Taste TASTE. <br /> <br />Sure, I wouldn't recommend this book to the novice cook (unless you were trying to learn the methodology behind what you were doing). <br /> <br />I've worked at a food magazine before and needless to say the "tasting committee" sounds large, but really it can be misleading. Sometimes only 5 people partake in "blind tastings" just because other people are busy. Remember, you are eating the food. Shape the recipe to your tastes and work slowly and taste everything as you go. If something seems like to much, add half the amount, taste, and work up from there. I'm still giving this book a low review because I also agree with the poor index comments and the overuse of tasters shaping the outcome of the recipe.
