This book was much better than I had expected. having recently read some other "global" cooking books I expected a way to brief intro to world cuisine. This is not that. although no smallish book can do justice to the many tastes and flavors of the world, this does a good job of selecting relatively easy and tasty dishes from around the world, from a wide array of countries. I found many good to great recipes contained within. recommended.
The joy of cookbooks is that they don't take very long to read (unless they're written by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.
This one by Troth Wells had a number of very interesting recipes, including one for an onion soup which I intend to cook at the weekend. Also gained some interesting ideas on things to do with cabbage.
Indispensable! My kitchen will never be boring with these exotic recipes. Mostly love the African recipes and the recipes from obscure parts of the world. Definitely check this out if you're a vegetarian and love world cultures. Everything I've made from here thus far has been amazingly delicious. This book will take you and your kitchen on a world tour.
Simple, lovely recipes that are generally tasty and healthy. No 20 ingredient lists or really odd ingredient recipes. Simple, basic, delicious, but not typical or pedestrian. A unique vegetarian cookbook.
