3.0 out of 5 stars
Not Practical in U.S.,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Soups and Smoothies from Your Blender (Real Food) (Paperback)
Having recently purchased a new high-quality blender, I was looking for a practical recipe book in the U.S.
This book is printed in the UK. Fortunately, the authors have listed all recipes with both American and Metric measurements making conversion easy. However, many of the ingredients would be difficult to locate in the U.S., and many of the recipes are "non-traditional." A few soup titles include: Watercress and Leek Cream Soup Sour Cucumber Soup Beetroot Soup with Tomatoes and Horseradish Mushroom Cappuccino Cream of Turnip Soup Marrow and Ginger Soup Celery and Apple Soup Kidney Soup (using lamb kidneys) Smoked Haddock Cream Soup with Potatoes and Onions The recipes are clearly written and the instructions are relatively simple, although many have preparation times of 1/2 hour. If you are living in the U.K. or Europe (or are transplanted in the U.S.) and these titles excite you, it's a great recipe book. The same goes if you are an adventurous cook looking for something new and you have unlimited time to find the right ingredients. However, if you are looking for a few simple recipes to quickly pull together in your kitchen at home (in the U.S.) this book won't work. I gave it three stars because it is well written for the right audience - but not practical for the U.S. homemaker.
