Everything I have cooked from this book has been a winner! Easy and delicious! ( )

What can I say...I love Ina Garten. Her food is delicious and is gourmet without an air of pretention. ( )

Cookbook was exceptional. Every page cover recipes I would want to serve to my family. Loved the idea of seasonal foods, simple preparation and secrets for finishing dishes.

Another winner by Ina Garten. ( )

Wonderful recommendations that help with basic cooking strategies i.e. soups. A must for any fan of the barefoot contessa. (Beate) ( )

Ina Garten's recipes are fail-proof and all her previous cookbooks and the recipes I've tried have been excellent. Her newest cookbook does not disappoint and actually exceeds all my expectations, which for Ina, are pretty high. I can proudly add this new cookbook to the front of my collection of cookbooks.

Once you hold this newest book in your hands you immediately understand why each cookbook she writes takes two years. The paper is high quality, the photographs are beautifully shot, the typeface chosen makes the recipes easy to read, each providing clear, complete instructions enabling you to easily duplicate her latest gastrinomical treat. You can be certain she has tested, re-tested, and taste-tested each recipe to make the cooking experience flawless and effortless.

All the research and experience has resulted in making the recipes cooked from this book memorable, enjoyable, and delicious--something the best cooks never attain. Ina Garten does it every time she pulls out her pans and lifts her pen. I'll be patiently waiting two more years for the next one! ( )
