5.0 out of 5 stars Well presented detail for cooks at all levels of experience., December 11, 1998

This review is from: Lovin' Dutch Ovens: A Cook Book for the Dutch Oven Enthusiast (Ring-bound)

This book is probably the best I have ever read on Dutch oven cooking. It presents details in a manner that even beginners can easily understand, and seasoned "pros" can learn from. I am the current president of the Lone Star (Texas) Dutch Oven Society, and I recommend this book as required reading to anyone who wants to learn this old cooking art.

5.0 out of 5 stars lovin' dutch oven cookbook, April 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Lovin' Dutch Ovens: A Cook Book for the Dutch Oven Enthusiast (Ring-bound)

This book was purchased to learn how to cook in a dutch oven for a living history presentation at my child's school. I learned how to perfectly season my new oven (it came out great) and I made the Pioneer Journey Cake which is an authentic mid 1800's wagon train recipe. Cakes can have a mind of their own in a modern gas oven, so I had my doubts, but with Joan's tips on calculating oven temperature it came out perfect the first time. This book offers tips and recipes for everyone from the beginner to the sophisticated oven user.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the best Dutch Oven Cook Book around., September 4, 1998

Joan Larsen has the best beginner or advanced Dutch Oven Cook Book going. I own several and this one is by far the best. Every Dutch Oven enthusiast should have one for their collection. Each recipie is written so that even the first time beginner can understand it and cook a very good meal, even the first time. Once again, my hat is off to Mrs. Larsen.
