4.0 out of 5 stars
Classic Frugal Gourmet, September 12, 2005
This review is from: The Frugal Gourmet - Cooking with Wine (Six-Volume Boxed Set) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is Classic Jeff Smith. If you were a fan of the Frugal Gourmet series you will love this. He cooks like real people. This is "real-time" cooking. He chops his own ingredients and chats with the viewer like a friend. He interjects great anecdotes along with his recipies. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that most people who live with the heavily edited, pre-measured, multi-angle cooking shows from the modern cable networks may feel this show to be amaturish. But if, like me, you learned how to make gravy with Graham Kerr or Julia Childs, this is classic cooking of dishes real people will cook and eat. I will buy other Frugal Gourmet video sets as I can find them
