Excellent Resource

I have used this cookbook daily since I purchased it. The section on vegetables is fantastic (the World's Best Cabbage really is the best cabbage I have ever prepared/eaten). THere are also several strategies in this book that I have used successfully with recipes from other sources (e.g. adding what she calls 'meaty enhancements' to flavor the dish).

The recipes are easy to follow, relatively simple to prepare, and generally do not require expensive ingredients. This is a great cookbook for beginners and more advanced cooks alike.

An exceptional book

This book is destined to become a classic. Molly Stevens is a true teacher: She provides a mouthwatering introduction to each recipe, breaks the instructions down to manageable steps, and throws in additional information when needed, such as how to select parsnips or a leg of lamb. Even experienced cooks can learn something from her.

These recipes clearly have been tested, and repeatedly. I've made the "7 hour leg of lamb," and the "World's Best Braised Cabbage." Unbelievable. I don't care for lamb, and I practically swooned when I tasted it.

One of the best cookbooks in my very large library.
