5.0 out of 5 stars It's all great!, April 26, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Sassafras: The Ozarks Cookbook (Hardcover)

I have owned this cookbook for years and I have never had a dud recipe. This last Christmas I was going to make candy and ran across the English Toffee recipe. I made it and everyone raved. I made it again and everyone raved. It is so easy and it tastes like a million bucks! That expensive toffee you buy in the high dollar chocolate shops is a breeze to make your friends and family will be amazed. My second favorite recipe is the Trees and raisins even my husband will eat his broccoli!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sassafras: The Ozarks Cookbook, March 28, 2000

This review is from: Sassafras: The Ozarks Cookbook (Hardcover)

I have absolutely used this cookbook over and over again until now, it is basically falling apart. I grew up in the Ozarks and this book represents the good wholesome food that comes from this area and brings me many of the memories I left behind.

This review is from: Sassafras: The Ozarks Cookbook (Hardcover)

I've owned this cookbook for 10+ years, and I have to have given at least 10 copies over the years as gifts.

Timeless recipes from great cooks that were tested repeatedly amongst JL members and their families. One of the guidelines for selecting recipes for testing was that the ingredients were relatively easy to find.

I've made the majority of the recipes time and again, always to rave reviews (I'd love to take credit but it's not me, it's the recipes:)

Casual to fancy, this is a cookbook that I use as frequently today as I did when I first purchased it. You'll be pleased, I promise.
