This is an amazing cookbook. Every recipe I have tried, save one, has been absolutely delicious. The coq au vin and vodka sauce recipes are particularly good, the best I have ever eaten, even when compared to what I have tried in excellent restaurants. Pictures are lovely and the instructions are very easy to follow. I wish every cookbook was so inventive, and so reliable.

If you don't agree with the title, you need to buy this book. If you do, well, buy this book. Either way, you need to try the bacon version of peanut brittle! Most people can't guess the special ingredient that makes it so good. Aside from bacon desserts, there are plenty of more traditional recipes, along with information on working with and buying bacon. Another good cookbook from Chronicle, with their usual attention to design.

Everything Tastes Better With Bacon showcases over seventy recipes to demonstrate how bacon can be utilized in virtually every meal of the day; from traditional breakfast dishes such as Bacon Biscuits to Sizzling Herb Pasta and Cobb Salad. Color photos add to the attractions, while the inclusion of many innovative dishes such as Bacon-Wrapped Zucchini Flans, makes for a delightful presentation.

An exquisite book outlining the best ways to add spice to cooking. The rarity of course is the use of bacon as the suppliment to any good dish. This book is a handy guide for any iron chef who is baconly challenged.

It took along time to get here but I was warned about that ahead on time. Have used it a few times and enjoy it alot.

I found a copy of this book onmy doorstep the other morning. I suspect the neighbor across the street. She isnt part of the Arcticacre clan and sometimes we find her drinking from our hose and isolating certain blades of grass with these small but very detailed sponge figures. I thought one of them was me, until it rained.

So, the book was there on my doorstep. I immediately started reading. I cant tell you how long I read the book, but it must have been three hours and twelve minutes. My favorite part was the part about how bacon is great in all sorts of bacon related food items. I just wish that they had some animated bacon cartoon characters on the cover and in a DVD inserted into the book. I dont like the idea of watching what I eat dance cutely, but with so may bacon recipes perhaps my neighbor has other plans.

cheers, Joe Arcticacre
