Oh what a nice cookbook! It is absolutely perfect for this time of year. I love eating seasonally and this one is just right for my tastes. Beautiful pictures and organized so that recipes are easily found. I cannot wait to try the green sauce and pasta with parsley-walnut sauce. Yum. Thanks Netgalley!

I love these little Canal house cookbooks. They focus on what's in season so I like that-food is so much better when you appreciate it. The "too many tomatoes" chapter is awesome.

I received an advance review copy of Canal House Cooking Volume No. 8: Pronto by Melissa Hamilton, Christopher Hirsheimer (Open Road Integrated Media) through NetGalley.com.

I am sorry to buck the trend of reviews here, but I found the text irritating and the recipes and photos unappealing. These are subjective responses to the book as a whole so it is hard to find specific examples. The main thing is that I found the tone arch instead of friendly. I couldn't figure out why anyone would write this book.

There is an interesting savory zabaione for cooked vegetables but that is only one amongst the others that are ho-hum. It may be just the way the photos are shown in my Kindle edition but I almost get vertigo looking at some, a few seem to be upside down. The photo of baby shrimp with green peas and pipette pasta looked like stuff served to kindergarteners. These cooks seem to choose the pasta shape to shelter the other ingredients. In salad photo, the salami strips have slipped inside the rigatoni like pigs in a blanket, elsewhere the chickpeas are nestled in orecehietta.

I can't really see the use of this book.

Love, love, LOVE this cookbook! I received it as a Christmas gift from my husband. Over the holidays, I cooked several of the recipes and enjoyed them all. I like how the recipes are grouped by season which highlights in-season produce. Gorgeous photos for inspiration as well.
