Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Finally, the definitive reference on sausages, complete from andouille to zungenwurst. Within its four parts ("Regional Sausage Dishes," "Making Your Own," "Sausages of the World," and an "International Glossary of Sausages") Antony and Araminta Hippisley Coxe include 60 recipes from America to Switzerland, instructions for making 45 varieties, and the history and ingredients of nearly 600 types of sausages found worldwide. With appealing concoctions such as Caillettes de Foie de Porc a la Pugetoise and Doong Gwoo Lap Cheong Jing Ju Yook, these pages are for those who dare not only to cook with sausages but also to know what goes in them.

2.0 out of 5 stars The not-so-great sausage book, March 6, 2000
This review is from: The Great Book of Sausages (Paperback)
It's presumptuous for this book to call itself the "only complete guide" to sausage. True, it has encyclopedic descriptions of every ethnic sausage known to man, BUT doesn't give all the recipes. I also found the book to be slanted towards the British Isles in content and terminology. And the last straw, it contains no American sources for sausage-making supplies. Had I viewed it in a bookstore, I would never have purchased it. Rytek Kutas' book is the best!

This review is from: The Great Book of Sausages (Paperback)
I bought this book expecting the definitive guide to sausages. Not. This is a survey of sausages the world around - what they are made of, casings and who makes them. I confess I didn't need to hear about the guy in Thailand making sausages on his little farm.

Also included is a host of sausage food recipes which I just scanned. They looked light weight (like the rest of the book) and nothing caught my eye.

What's not in this book? Any useful information on making or cooking sausages. "Spice to taste". Never a useful hint on the typical ratio of spices for various sausages. What good is a sausage recipe without at least guidance on spicing?

This book is only useful for answering questions like "What's in blood sausage?" and nothing in the way of "how do you ....".

Basically it's not a cookbook - it's a coffee table book without pictures.
