As someone who cooks a lot and is not hesitant to invent recipes, I love this book. It's designed to appeal to those of us who ask "Why does this taste like this?" and "suppose I tried this?" and "What in the world is this ingredient doing for this recipe?" Top recommendation! It earns a star spot in my collection.

I wanted a good basics for soups and this delivers big time. I did not believe you could make beef soup without bones, roasting etc. Their beef broth was the best I have ever made or bought And it was so easy. The book was worth the cost just for the shortcuts. Buy this!
