Now for the recipes, some of them I needed to change a little as I live in small town Alaska. We just don’t have everything available or reasonably priced. So some ingredients I omitted when I tried them, others I tried to find a substitute for. Some I passed by. Perhaps I will make them when I visit family in the Midwest. I would not suggest this book for a new, inexperienced cook. I think most of the recipes would be too difficult. I don’t think you need to be a master chef though either. A cook with good skills could manage most recipes. Some of the recipes look like they are complicated just my the ingredient list. Don’t worry about that. As I stated above, the author enjoys herbs. Some of the long list of ingredients are lengthy because of the various herbs used. What I suggest you do, is read though the list and then read the recipe. After that, decide if you want to try that recipe. I am a bit on the fence as to the recipes. This book has a wonderful variety of recipes. While I found a number that I would make more than once, I truly think this cookbook is more of a niche cookbook. Those who will enjoy it best are those who like to experiment with food. I think it makes a fun gift for those who enjoy cooking and eating special dishes. I would recommend it to specialty cooks and to those who enjoy a nice cookbook to sit on their coffee table. I think the recipes would spark conversation, creativity and would be tasty to enjoy.
