This book is full of great recipes to fill your larder. The past handful of years have been bonkers for me and I don't have the headspace to cook the elaborate meals that used to be standard. I find myself making things I can keep on hand that can be added to the basics and make them really good. I highly recommend this book if that is also how you are cooking right now.
If I can find ONE thing helpful in a book, I love it. This book, which I picked up at a FOL book sale, has a lot of good tips and recipes. Pantry or none, it’s a good read for those who like to do!
I have made several things out of this book with good results. Most of the ingredients are easy to find and I often use it as inspiration when nothing in my pantry looks appealing I will flip though and find something in it that is made with what I have and is different than what I made last week. But nothing I have made as become something that we will want week after week but several times a year.
