The New York Times Cooking No-Recipe Recipes: [A… por Sam Sifton
I like the idea and was excited about this one but didn’t really enjoy the tone or gain as much as I hoped. Picked up a few recipes I’ll try. I hope to see more books of this style with a bit more of an educational rather than whimsical bent - in the spirit of Ratio or something like that.

This recipe collection focuses on foods one finds on Sunday menus around the country. While the illustrated recipes are nicely done, far too many of the recipes lack photos. The recipes which interested me were ones from my own heritage, and I'm unlikely to exchange my family favorite recipe for another. The book is probably best for younger or less-experienced cooks than for the more seasoned cook.
I love all recipes by Sam Sifton and looking forward to someday that we can have big family Sunday Dinners again.
Small wonder this book cost only $18.00!
I Want Photos in my Cookbooks, not drawings.... It was printed in non-cookbook format, smallish font, recipe titles in a light orange color, some recipes were printed on a very light orange background, long painstaking instructions (without illustrations), snide side remarks, and boring personalizations.
Chapters include: Getting Started; The Turkey; Side Dishes; Gravy & Cranberry Sauce; Setting the Table (God forbid you don't do this correctly); Serving the Food & Some Questions of Etiquette (We're supping w/ the Queen?); Drinks & Drinking (How many of you don't know about this?); Dessert; Cleanup & Leftovers; Index; and Notes.
Do you know there are (at least) Six (6) different types of Turkey (read this book and you will)? You can roast, brine, fry, and deep fry a turkey, but nothing here on BBQ.
Side dishes include: three different dressings/stuffings, three different potato recipes, two squash recipes, vegetables; carrots, Brussels sprouts, and green beans; and mac & cheese (really?).
Three Gravies (one called "serious")..... two cranberries..... As for the remainder, I really didn't give a fig!… (más)
