A Wonderful Source of Traditional Greek Recipes,
By
This review is from: Greek Cooking for Everyone: Second Edition (Paperback)
As the Greek Food Host at Bella Online, I refer to many Greek cookbooks. Greek Cooking For Everyone is one of my favorites. The recipes are very traditional, yet the ingredients are readily available to American cooks. The first few pages of the cookbook offer background information on the staples of Greek cuisine, and tips on stocking a Greek kitchen, which is very helpful and informative. This cookbook is divided into menus rather than types of food (i.e. 'meat menus', 'fish menus', etc.), so that each section provides a meal complete with appetizers and side dishes. Most recipes are for four or more people, so if you are looking for recipes for two, you will have to adjust the measurements. Although this is not the type of cookbook that includes professional, color photographs of Greece, it is a very handy reference and a great source of traditional Greek recipes.

Ok, but not great,

This review is from: Greek Cooking for Everyone: Second Edition (Paperback)
I would not recommend this book to non-Greeks or people who are not familiar with Greek cooking (like myself). Some of the recipes seem to leave out important information - like how to prepare the vegetables before cooking - which might be obvious to a more experienced Greek cook. Also, some of the recipes are good and others a sort of blah. Although maybe this is because it is hard to get really fresh produce year round in the NE US - unlike in Greece. I do like how the book is organized into menus.
