Notes about Recipes in this book

• Healthier version of the blueberry muffins

  • sarahcooks on November 12, 2012

    I was very skeptical, but these were delicious and the kids loved them too. I used regular milk, and I had to use more agave for some of the maple syrup (I ran out) but otherwise I followed the recipe. I'm sure they're delicious as written too.

• Chicken Milanese

  • adrienneyoung on September 29, 2011

    I am feeling very uncharitable feelings toward Ms. Paltrow at present. This is the recipe that has taught me that I do NOT know how to pound meat. I have shredded bits of chicken all over my kitchen counter at present. And two VERY small residual chicken breastlets to milk and breadcrumb for our dinners, once the cherry tomatoes have finished roasting. Hmph. Phooey, I say. Also, needs to be more aggressively seasoned than I managed. Maybe salted a couple of days in the fridge, per zuni cafe cookbook?

• Vegetable stock

  • vhopcroft on May 19, 2011

    This is my new go-to vegetable stock. The tarragon adds lovely flavor!

• Miso dressing

  • vhopcroft on May 19, 2011

    Delicious! I add a little less white miso now as I found it a little overwhelmingly salty the first time I made this.

  • Wende on April 13, 2022

    As miso dressings go, this was not one of my favorites. The balance seemed off - maybe less onion and garlic? Normally, a dressing with this much umami going for it would have me almost drinking it. I might try it again, but not without some serious tinkering

• My Ivy chopped salad

  • Mollyh on July 13, 2013

    Used striped bass and it was still AMAZING.

• Ten-hour chicken

  • andreathurm on February 16, 2016

    I rarely comment, but here goes. I looked for such a recipe after eating a 10-hour chicken in Madrid and was very excited to find this touted by and reproduced by some bloggers. Alas, it did not measure up. The breast was dry despite all of the braising liquid, and unfortunately, dousing it with the broth was not a satisfactory solution because cooking lemons for this long made the broth bitter. The chicken I had in Madrid was much smaller - a poussin - and was butterflied before cooking. I think both differences are significant and will try the recipe again. Regardless, stuffing the chicken with the lemon halves is not a good idea.

• Standby vinaigrette

  • TanyaPaquet on June 23, 2013

    I add an additional teaspoon or two of maple syrup.

  • TanyaPaquet on June 30, 2013

    See p. 69

• Fried rice with kale and scallions

  • Elnara on February 13, 2014

    I really liked this recipe. It's a great way to use up extra kale and get it in the kids. The soy sauce makes this dish, it brings all the flavours together and makes it yummy. Will make again!

• Spaghetti alla vongole

  • rleemcm on May 13, 2017

    Our go-to recipe, have made this countless times!

• Chive vinaigrette

  • Frogcake on August 23, 2019

    Good vinaigrette! I will keep this one in my back pocket.

• Cold Niçoise salad

  • Frogcake on August 23, 2019

    Very nice served with the chive vinaigrette! I will be making this Niçoise salad again! I added roasted carrots and olives to the mix. Excellent salad!

• Broiled salmon with homemade teriyaki sauce

  • jay.moe on March 04, 2022

    After marinating the salmon for 2 hours, it had a subtle teriyaki flavor. I was afraid to let the fish marinate too long as it might affect the texture. The texture and flavor were great. I grilled the salmon outside rather that in the oven, which made for a fast meal with easy clean up.

• Lottie and Doof

  The book is personal, and contains enough interesting recipes to keep me turning the page. Lots of her fans will buy the book... I am glad that they will also get easy to prepare and healthy recipes.

• Tinned Tomatoes

  It is one of those real comforting cookbook reads you can take to bed. Real home cooking with a lovely introduction where Gwyneth talks about her family and how her love of food grew.
