5.0 out of 5 stars 6 MONTHS AND I LOST 35 lbs!!!
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2024
Verified Purchase
I don’t normally write reviews (I’m a harsh critic), but I’ve recommended this book to so many people now, I thought I should.

I lost 35 lbs. by cooking recipes from this book 3-5 times a week on average. No, I don’t exercise; I just eliminated all processed foods from my diet and replaced them with recipes from this book. I also enjoy a glass of wine (or two!) with my meal most evenings. I’m not sure how many different recipes I’ve made from the book, but it’s definitely more than 50–possibly 100. They are all DELICIOUS! There is not a single recipe in this book I would not serve to guests. In fact, I’m a bit embarrassed when I serve these recipes to guests and they tell me what a talented cook I am. I blush and point to the book and say “honestly, I can read and follow directions.” It’s really that simple! The recipes are very easy to follow and even a complete novice like me can turn out wonderful food if you follow the directions carefully. The recipes all call for readily available ingredients that you can find in any grocery store. There are a handful of ingredients I’ve never used or even heard of, but you can find them and I tell people to not be intimidated by them. If I can do it, anyone can. There are a great number of vegetarian recipes in here, which my wife’s family (Hindu strict vegetarians) LOVE. My wife even complains when we go out to fancy Italian restaurants now, “this isn’t as good as what you make!” I wasn’t much of a vegetable guy before I started this journey, now I literally crave vegetables—it makes my mouth water just thinking about it! If you’re going to diet, you have to like the food to stick to it—you really can’t do better than this.

My one complaint (and it’s extremely minor) is the author(s) write in the beginning that they did not include any recipes featuring things like salmon because it’s not indigenous to the Mediterranean. Really? Because neither are tomatoes (!!!), potatoes, halibut, etc. There are plenty of AMAZING seafood recipes, however.

Simply put, I would have continued cooking out of this book even if I hadn’t lost the weight—turns out that’s just a side benefit!

P.S. You may want to start a small herb garden, as I recently have. Almost all the recipes call for fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, basil, oregano, etc.). While fresh herbs are relatively inexpensive, I find the quantities generally include more than I need and go bad before I can use the whole bunch. I don’t recommend trying to substitute dry herbs (unless specifically noted)—they just don’t compare.

EDIT: It’s been a year now and I’ve stuck to my diet and maintained my weight (I’m right on my ideal BMI). I saw some reviews that said the nutrition info is somewhat cumbersome to find. Honestly, I never even looked at that section! I just made the recipes that appealed to me and the pounds came off. I also saw some people say they thought some ingredients were hard to find; that has not been my experience. I shop at wegmans, which granted, does carry a lot of gourmet food items. But the ones that are more unique (pomegranate molasses, Dukkah, preserved lemons, etc.) the book provides recipes on making them—however, I didn’t make any of those as you can also find them right here on Amazon.

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2024

The recipes in here look so delicious! Couple things, the pictures of food aren't labeled with what recipe it is. Sometimes you can figure out which picture goes with the recipe but a lot of the time you can't. I also didn't realize just how much seafood is in the Mediterranean diet. If you live in a place where good, fresh seafood is hard to find you should know that A LOT of the recipes will be difficult to find ingredients for. This cookbook is very informative. It shows you how to prep and process everything. Overall it's a good cookbook with great recipes. For those of you living on the coast.... man oh man will you all have some amazing meals!

My version has recipe nutritional information in the very back and captions for each photo. Correct, no salmon recipes because it’s a Mediterranean cookbook and salmon is not native to the region. Great cookbook. Lots of recipes with variations plus ingredient explanations and how to prepare tips. A lot of care went into writing this book.

Lost two stars directly for Ratatouille recipe: "Remove pot from oven and using a potato masher or heavy wooden spoon smash and stir eggplant mixture until broken down to a sauce like consistency.” Eggplant is a delicate and wonderful vegetable and this recipe wants you to mash it like potatoes. Apparently the US based team doesn't understand the finesse in European cooking.

4.0 out of 5 stars libro americano de comida mediterránea
Reviewed in Mexico on December 25, 2017
Verified Purchase
Es un libro con un desarrollo de recetas de tipo mediterráneo diseñado y perfeccionado según el libro por un equipo de chefs. Me parece importante señalar que en México muchos de los ingredientes que indican en las recetas no están disponibles, solicitan demasiados productos envasados, enlatados e industrializados altos en sodio, conservadores colorantes y sin que mencionen la opción natural, ejemplo, utilizar una lata mediana de jitomates, pues en dónde yo vivo hay jitomates naturales, si me dicen los gramos compro los jitomates y los muelo sin problema. Los postres, no traen panacota, ni tiramisú ni gelatos ni nada que digas wooooow que rico postre, creo que si te gusta comer en el italiannis para sentir que comes comida italiana, te puede gustar este libro aunque consigas solamente el 40% de los ingredientes que solicita el libro.
PROS_ Las fotos y la calidad del papel son buenas, tiene muy detalladas las instrucciones y considero que el equipo que desarrolló el libro saben muy bien su negocio, seguramente si viviera en USA me encantaría el libro
