Clear and helpful photographs on every page complement the written instructions. If you need to learn about eggs you can see how to break and separate the white from the yolk, how to beat and fold in egg whites, and how to cook and peel hard-cooked eggs. Three sets of double pages explain these preparation skills.
Six of the thirteen chapters contain recipes. One of our favorites, as mentioned in a previous blog, is the recipe for Spinach-Stuffed Pasta Shells. From thiscopied page , you can get a sense of how the pictures complement the text. Part 1 of the instructions are at the right.
An important point in evaluating a cookbook is the index. Look at the format. Do the main topics stand out clearly from the sub-topics? This cookbook passes that test with high marks.
Below is the first page of the table of contents to help give you an overview of the book.
Happy Cooking,
