5 out of 5 stars my favourite cookbook!   June 23, 2001
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have had the silver palate cookbook since the mid-eighties, when a friend brought it back from the States for me and I am actually ordering a new copy now because my old one has been used to tatters. This is really my favourite and most used cookbook, even here in the middle of Africa where not everything is always available. People just love what I make from the book and I am often asked for recipes. We are all particularly keen on 'the stew pot' recipes such as 'Dilled blanquete de veau', 'Beef Stroganoff' and 'Chili for a crowd' and we love the mousses as desserts. Of course it's a bit over the top to have to use 'best quality imported virgin olive oil' all the time, so I don't. But with regular olive oil it all works out too!

I can strongly recommend this book to anyone who loves cooking (and eating).

(This review refers to an old edition of 'the Silver Palate Cookbook')


4 out of 5 stars Big hits and big misses.   December 16, 1999
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The Silver Palate's receipts are either wonderful hits or bizarre misses. All the receipts are truly inventive, and either that translates into simple elegant creations where the ingredients work well with each other (but you never would have thought to put them together), or elaborate procedures involving expensive ingredients that one would never have sitting around the kitchen (and is not likely to use again) and which aren't worth the trouble. One great success is a luscious summer pasta receipt with raw tomatoes, basil, olive oil, garlic... and brie... truly sumptuous and prepared in about ten minutes. All in all, still a must have.


4 out of 5 stars Delectable Recepies That Are Quintessential To All Cooks!   November 19, 1998
This is a wonderful cook book - I love the side notes and suggestions....The Pumpkin Pie Recipe is like no other I've tried and now is an essential element of my Thanksgiving Dessert offerings! Not too sweet and just the perfect amount of spices (Cardamom too) makes it extra aromatic and a delightful end to a savory meal.


5 out of 5 stars The cookbook you can't live without!   October 29, 1998
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

As an American living in France, I am amazed at the complements that I receive when I cook anything from this book. In fact mine is in shreds and I am ordering a new one. My French friends are always asking for the recipes and when I tell them it is an "American" recipe they are thrilled. Cook away and discover really international cuisine.


3 out of 5 stars Too froufrou for me!   July 18, 1998

I found this cookbook to be lacking in the warmthness that epitomizes home-cooking. Its recipes were too restaurant style. Im sorry I bought the book.
