Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Butel's "hell" is undefined, but her recipes are pungent, often imaginative, and just what she says: Hot! Instant Bloody Marias, actually cherry tomatoes dipped in tequila and then in a dry hot pepper seasoning mixture, divided my guests into two camps: those who wanted more and those who thought the rest of us were crazy. It's not just the various peppers and chiles, but horseradish, ginger, garlic, onions, Mexican oregano, and a broad range of other seasonings used to achieve a multilayered flavor in her recipes. Butel, an an experienced author and lover of spicy foods, wisely includes a few desserts and both soothing and fiery beverages. A fiendish success. SP

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stuff!, May 31, 2005
A terrific cookbook that I have used since 1987. Wonderful dishes. One of the best queso recipes I have ever run across. I have no idea why "A reader" wrote what he or she did since my experience has been the opposite. Jane Butel's directions are clear and very easy to follow and the tastes are authentic. The mole poblano (listed as Turkey Mole) instantly took me back to Old Mexico where I fell in love with the sauce. I have never written a review before and have not felt compelled to do so until now. Jane, if you read this, thanks for all the great dishes!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bring on the HEAT!!!, December 13, 2006
By Dari B. Wayne (Lawrenceville, GA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hotter Than Hell (Paperback)
I love hot food! Marry the intensity of heat with flavor and you have a winning meal at my table. What I enjoy about this book is the diversity of dishes from appetizers through entree's and desserts to drinks that give you a wide vareity of hot and spicy choices. The author, Jane Butel, entices the reader with "I gotta make this titles" like Bitchy Beef Bourguignonne, Dante's Downfall, Tracy's White Trash and Hot to Trot Tarts. All recipes are very readable and easy to make. If you are a seasoned HEAT eater or seeking adventurous cooking, then grab Hotter Than Hell and spice up your culinary life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Check out the gumbo!, December 6, 2006
This review is from: Hotter Than Hell (Paperback)
This book contains an intriguing gumbo recipe, Jane's Great Grandmother's Gumbo. Here is her comment about that recipe:

My Swedish grandmother's mother got this recipe from one of her helpers whose home was in Louisiana. The original recipe was a real kick -- it called for a 10-cent soup bone, a sack full of freshly picked okra and so on -- but I tested and retested it with modern measurements, finally achieving the true flavor of Grandma's gumbo.
