Zusammenfassung: Cheers to Ina
Kommentar: I have always loved Ina Gartens recipes. Shes the queen of style, entertaining and great, wonderful food.
One thing that I adore from this book, is that she gives us tips on what to serve or not to serve in a party. Also how to arrange flowers and all these helpful things we need to know to be a perfect host. Easy and classy dishes, great tips.
Highly reccomended, this book is a must for anyone.

Zusammenfassung: Cooking my way from cover to cover
Kommentar: As soon as I started reading Ina's introduction, I was hooked. I almost like her cookbooks more for her narration than the recipes! Not to say the recipes aren't excellent--most of them are.
Not everything in the book is to my taste, and that's fine. She has a few "exotic to some" ingredients but I'm not buying Ina's cookbook looking for "5 minutes or less recipes". Personally, I love food, I love to cook, and I love shopping for ingredients. I don't want to make a recipe that calls for imitation crabmeat or a packet of ranch seasoning. That's not Ina's style. Not that there's anything wrong with such time & money savers, but if that's what you're looking for in terms of "Basics" this is not the book for you. Also, her ingredients are very New England (as evidenced by all the lobster sometimes) but that's where she lives. She's cooking what she knows. No one can fault her for that.
Her recipes are tried and true favorites with a twist, like beef stew and pork tenderloin, roasted sweet potatoes and confetti corn. Each recipe, however, has a slight twist to make you WANT to make it. And there are a few new recipes in there too, that make me want to expand my pallette like the Celery Root and Apple Mash that has potatoes in it.
The book has a definite seasonal feel. Most of the recipes are late summer to winter, with a focus on winter vegetables, hearty meats, and stews. There are no shortage of tomato recipes though--which has me salivating for next August.
One of the best chapters is the first--Appetizers--her ideas for cocktails and appetizers are phenomenal and I'm trying almost all of them as soon as possible! You don't want to miss her roasted pepper crostini or the cheddar and thyme biscuits (I've made them and they're great!)
As usual, photos and styling are excellent. Her tips/advice are valuable. Ina's books are my go-to standbys and this book will be no exception.
