Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Milk shake

    • emiliang on July 21, 2016

      The proportions were a bit off. This came out more like chocolate milk than a shake. Start with half of the required milk - it may be enough.

  • Rosemary and brown sugar nuts

    • bellezora on September 01, 2015

      The Errata, corrected in the 3rd edition, omits the light corn syrup.

  • Becker sour cream dip

    • Delys77 on November 28, 2011

      Went with the variation that includes horseradish and it was pretty good. Nothing to write home about, but a nice simple dip with pretty good flavour.

    • napangel on December 13, 2012

      This is a family favorite. I love how the lemon zest brightens the flavors. I've never tried the horseradish variation.

  • Baked artichoke dip

    • sturlington on March 13, 2016

      Very easy and a party hit. I added mozzarella as well as parmesan.

  • Texas caviar

    • sturlington on December 17, 2014

      I use Southwest seasoning mix and add a little lime juice at the end. P73 This does not taste quite like the restaurant-style Texas caviar I was looking for. I am still playing with the recipe. Husband likes, though.

  • White bean dip with rosemary and garlic

    • melpy on December 30, 2016

      This needed a lot more olive oil to be smooth, I also added sage, thyme, lemon juice and salt because it was so bland.

  • Broiled stuffed mushrooms Cockaigne

    • sturlington on December 28, 2014

      Everyone seemed to like these and they were easy to prepare ahead of time, then just throw into the oven as guests were arriving. They were only good hot--got kind of mushy as they cooled--and did not keep well.

  • Buffalo chicken wings

    • Dannausc on February 19, 2018

      Good, traditional wings.

  • Vegetable soup

    • Delys77 on October 31, 2011

      Super simple but very nice in its own way. Spencer likes it a lot. Added a sprig of thyme.

  • Sauerkraut soup

    • Delys77 on October 31, 2011

      Pretty good for a simple cabbage soup. It is lighter than lots of other recipes for cabbage soup and the leeks as well as the caraway give it a nice flavour.

  • Corn chowder

    • sturlington on March 17, 2014

      Substituted stock for milk. Worked well. Garnish with crumbled bacon, sliced scallions, dollop of sour cream, and grated cheddar cheese. P143

  • Becker chicken soup

    • sturlington on February 12, 2015

      A good soup, but cooking time is too long for weeknight dinner. I liked the touch of curry powder.
