Title: Going Solo in the Kitchen by Jane Doerfer, Jane, Doerfer ISBN: 0-375-70393-4 Publisher: Alfred A. Knopf Pub. Date: 01 September, 1998 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $15.95 |

Summary: good basic info, some good recipes
Comment: lots of great basic advice - kitchen utensils, food storage, shopping tips. one of the best things about this book is that following nearly every recipe is a section on possible variations, and then suggestions for leftovers. perfect for someone like me who likes to plan out meals in advance. plus that sort of thing keeps me creative in the kitchen. the recipes are very user friendly, and her tone is conversationally fun. the actual recipe's themselves are good but not outstanding. I haven't disliked anything I've made from this book. I think the recipes are better in Toni Lydecker's SERVE'S ONE, but this book is definately a solid buy, especially if you are semi - new to cooking for just yourself. (another plus is that most of the recipes I've tried up-size easily if need be)

Summary: Good book but...
Comment: While I like that she uses alot of fresh ingredients, I would have greatly appreciated it if the receipes included the dried/canned equivalent. I don't necessarily have the time to go out and buy fresh sage.
I also would've liked pictures to go with the receipes, so I had more of an idea of what I was getting into.
Still, it's nice to have a cook book that gives such a variety of receipes for the single cook.

Summary: A solid book for going solo in the kitchen
Comment: This book is a basic guide for making semi-gourmet
meals as a single person. Although it's a great book
for the experienced cook, I only found about two recipes that sounded
tasty and affordable as a single guy.
I was expecting more traditional recipes
that were easy to make and affordable.
Meals that didn't require many items. This book is geared more towards a female
audience with plenty of ingredients at home. Halibut
and mussels for dinner is probably not the most affordable meal out there to prepare.
