2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing recipes, May 29, 2000
By A Customer
Olive oil has long been an indispensable ingredient in my cooking, and I cannot imagine being without it. As might be expected, I am extremely fond of Mediterranean food, which I find to be utterly delicious and satisfying. I am sorry to say, however, that I was quite disappointed with the choice of recipes in this book, which presents a very limited view of a great cuisine. Although the text is well written and easy to understand, the same cannot be said for the recipes, which lack clear and detailed directions. The dietary wisdom and practical advice offered by "Olive Oil Cookery" is good as far as it goes, but in my opinion two other books, "Low-Fat Lies" and "The Omega Diet," explain more fully the science validating the Mediterranean diet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mediterranean Food is Delicious!, February 12, 1999
By A Customer
"Olive Oil Cookery: The Mediterranean Diet" offers some of the most delicious Mediterranean recipes I have ever tasted. The recipes were easy to prepare. The diversity of Mediterranean cuisine has something to offer to all food lovers. And with olive oil as its main ingredient, it is one of the healthiest! I highly recommend this book.
