In addition to chapters dedicated to appetizers, beverages, condiments, breads, breakfasts, soup/stews, salads, vegetables, main dishes and desserts, helpful indexes and practical descriptions of each cooking herb offer an educating and useful introduction to 14 fresh and dried herbs. Herb farms and seed shops provided each recipe, and every one that I have prepared has been fairly simple and deliciously successful. This book provides an invigorating introduction for cooks learning to use herbs and is a gem of new ideas and tips for veteran cooks. I highly recommend the cookbook, with the only complaint being that the binding should have been spiral rather than straight-edged; spiral binding is easier to keep open and read when preparing a recipe. The recipes are a must-have!

This recipe book is very informative. I plan to have an herb garden next spring and will be able to use many of them by following recipes in this book. Some of the recipes are very similar to each other as the book is a collection from people all over the United States but there is overall a wide variety of recipes. Most recipes provide equivalents for dried herbs as well, if you don't have access to fresh ones. The back of the book has a lot of information about each herb and the index is by herb.

Best herb cookbook I've ever used. Recipes are from herb farms across the country with readily available ingredients and concise instructions. Check out the Zucchini Torte and Herbed Potato Pie. The book also has a section on individual herbs...growing needs, how to use them, etc. A keeper.

This book is filled with great recipes using fresh herbs (also has dried equivalents). It also contains good info about individual herbs. I liked it so much that I bought 3 copies to give as gifts.

I received this book this week. I like it very much. It was just what I was looking for. Lots of recipes, well organized, mutliple ways of finding what you are looking for. Just an excellent, excellent book. Very well written, and easy to understand. I am so glad I bought it. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn how to use herbs, especially fresh herbs. The print is also easy to read, good for us older folks. I have the spiral edition for easy reference while cooking. All in all a great find!

This cookbook is easy and fun.....it makes you look like a gourmet cook while you put very little effort out......the ingredients are easy to find and the instructions are clear and concise.......A MUST HAVE FOR ANY LEVEL COOK

These reciepes sound so good, you just want to try them all. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for ways to use herbs in thier cooking.

I was so happy when I took this book out of the box and started looking through it. It's gorgeous and I can't wait to try some of the recipes. I love to grow herbs, but I haven't really used many fresh herbs in my cooking because I don't feel like i know enough about it. I think this book will help change that. It not only has a lot of good looking recipes, it tells all about different herbs and how strong their flavors are, how to use them, what to use them in, how to grow and harvest them, and more. Anyone interested in cooking with herbs will love this book.

I've had this book for a while and I love it. My daughter keeps borrowing it so I'm getting her her own copy! Strongly recommend for great recipes and good information on individual herbs.

I've been looking for some new recipes with flavor and I think this book is just what I've been looking for.
