4.0 out of 5 stars terrific bean dip recipe and clever headnotes, April 18, 1997

After watching Tom Chasuk on the Jay Leno show, I trotted out and bought his book. He's a clever writer and the recipes really work. I especially love Nick's Favorite Black Bean Dip. This isn't an all-purpose cookbook, but it is a terrific little book for appetizers and bean-based main dishes

I cook heirloom beans at least two to three nights a week, My health has improved considerably since I became somewhat obsessed with beans, I just love them, But I was starting to run out of recipes, how to keep them interesting, Well this book is a winner, I've tried about six recipes, all not difficult to do, but all turned out great, were clever ways to cook beans into interesting dishes, My only complaint is I wish it was bigger with more recipes, But as it is, it's a good resource with good recipes, each one I've tried has turned out just great!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, basic book!, January 7, 2012

The Bean Gourmet Presents the Greatest Little Bean Cookbook is an excellent source of recipes to prepare meals, snacks, dips, etc. If you are not an expert in the kitchen, have no fear, there's a lot you can pick up from this book. If you do have more experience, I think you'll find this volume is a great way to kick-start your own spin on Tom Chasuk's ideas.
