Summary: Lovely to look at...
Comment: I have had this book for a couple of months and have used it many times. The photos are wonderful! The way the book is divided up (i.e. ginger, garlic, chocolate, salt and pepper, etc.) is a great concept. The recipes are written for metic and US conversions, which I have found helpful. The first three recipes I made I would make again. However, I have made three things from the chocolate section and NONE of them have turned out. I am a good cook and a good baker, but have had no success with these particular versions of some good old basic chocolate recipes. The four layer fudge cake, for instance, has no baking powder or soda in it - but instead 8 eggs! The fudge frosting was good, but the directions say to whip it after it cools which causes it to look NOTHING like the glorious photo. I would recommend it to someone who KNOWS how to cook and can tinker around with some recipes, but wouldn't recommend it to a beginner who just likes to looks at the pictures. Bon appetit!

Summary: Don't Live in a Home without It
Comment: Once you have a few of the odd ingredients one doesn't usually find in an American kitchen, you and your partner will devour every recipe in this book! Most importantly, everything is truly delicious. The instructions are simple and the results are as they should be- fabulous. Most items take very little time in preparation and in cooking therefore no kitchen shelf should be without this cookbook. Everybody I have given it to raves about it, and I always have to give it to them because people ALWAYS ask where I learned to cook whatever tasteful meal I have just served them.

Summary: Beautiful and Easy
Comment: "Flavours" is by far, the best cookbook in my current collection. Having first seen it in a store (versus online), I can't say enough about the beauty of the photography. After flipping though only a few pages, I knew I had to purchase the book. As others have mentioned, the recipes are organized by flavour (flavor for us Americans). My favorite section is "Chillis." I had loaned the book to my sister and was without it for a few weeks. The best part about getting it back is that I re-leafed through the book and decided on several recipes to make right away. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes easy to prepare, beautiful and tasty food. Also, there is a picture for EVERY recipe, so you never have to guess about what something will look like once prepared. This feature has kind of ruined some of my other cookbooks for me.
