Aweesome as usual November 22, 2008
I have everyone of Ina's cookbooks and she continues to maintain consistency with simple and quality ingredients. Her recipes are delicious and she makes gourmet easy and interesting. I look forward to anything she has to write.

Back to Basics, Indeed! November 18, 2008

Like most folks, I was introduced to Ms. Garten via her Barefoot Contessa teevee show on the Food Network. As I was collecting (and still do) French influenced cookbooks, I purchased Barefoot in Paris (along with the companion travel journey), and fell further in love with her. Ms. Garten's latest offers a collection of savory recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner along with the cocktail hour and sections on soups, vegetables and desserts. Each chapter is prefaced with tips like flavor enhancers and serving suggestions. A section is dedicated to frequently asked questions and with instructions that are easy to follow, the recipes are not so high-brow as to be unattainable. Coq au vin, Chive and risotto cakes, Lemon Tuscan chicken (the first thing I'm preparing), orange pecan rice...yum, and the photographs are absolutely scrumptious. Ms. Garten shares menu ideas and resources, and takes the stress out of preparing, what looks like elaborate courses, with the basic of ingredients. I can do this! br /

I bought this book the day it came out and it's been great because these are the recipes from this seasons show. I'm such an Ina fan!!! Her recipes are always simple but always impressive. I strongly recommend this book!

It's Important to Get Back to Basics November 15, 2008
2 out of 5 found this review helpful

Back to Basics is a great cookbook for me, easy to follow for - the cooking challenged. During these stressful times cooking presents a great creative outlet and I am determined to get better and relax into it and this book really helps. I wish some of the recipes were a bit healthier since food and mood correlate and we do have an obesity epidemic fueled by stress and empty hearts. As I discuss in my book, Addicted to Stress: A Woman's 7 Step Program to Reclaim Joy and Spontaneity in Life, you can develop your personal emotional menu for building a healthy body and an immunity to stress and negativity. You can use life recipes along with food recipes from both books to get back to basics in your own life.
