5.0 out of 5 stars An Outstanding Cookbook!, January 16, 2011
By 
James G. Johnson (Laguna Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Michael's Cookbook (Hardcover)
As the owner of more than 380 cookbooks, this is one of the 15 or so to which I turn the most frequently. Michael's is an outstanding restaurant in Santa Monica with consistently great food. The recipes in this book are clear, easily followed, and deliver the exact same results as those that are enjoyed at the restaurant. Most require ingredients that are readily available in a well-stocked grocery store (truffles, foie gras and rabbit are a bit more difficult to find). Amazingly, most of the recipes do not require special equipment or honed cooking expertise. I have made more than 30 of the recipes, many for dinner parties, and have never been disappointed with the results. Neither have my guests. The "basic marinade" is a simple concoction of ordinary ingredients -- onion, carrots, parsley, basil, white pepper and olive oil -- but the results are extraordinary on pork, poultry, lamb, beef and veal.
