The Rebecca Review

Try the Pumpkin Pie!

Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2012

Verified Purchase

Ted Summerfield has a lot of experience cooking for lots of people so he knows what types of food make people happy. I was looking for a good recipe for pumpkin pie for one pie not two and was happy to see this cookbook had the perfect recipe. The pie is sweetened with brown sugar so it is not overly sweet like some pies can be. It had the perfect texture and was absolutely delicious. The only thing I did different was to substitute 1 3/4 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice for the ginger, cinnamon and cloves. It worked out great. Also the recipe calls for either one can of pumpkin or two cups of fresh baked pumpkin. I wasn't sure what size can to use so I just opened a big can of pumpkin an used two cups. This worked out well.

This book has many other recipes I'll enjoy cooking. There is a recipe for a butter pie crust which looks really good. The Spinach Salad is a great recipe as it has many variations and a homemade salad dressing. You may also love the Cherry Pie, Pecan Pie and Butterscotch Pie, yum.

Other recipes include Mulligatawny Stew, Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding, Curried Shrimp, Greek Shortbread, Butter Tarts, Three Cheese Rice, Stew and Dumplings, Apple Pie, Stuffing and Quiche Lorraine. So much to love. What I like most about this book is that it is written by a chef who understands how to cook in a home kitchen. The only thing you might have to look for is Noirot Rose Flower Water - 8.5 fl oz and one recipe calls for instant blending flour.

As a bonus there is a section on herbs and spices. This was helpful to me since I have so many herbs and spices to use up and needed new ways of using them.

So overall this is a great little book with many comfort foods to enjoy.

Recipe book + herb overview

Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2012

The book itself is mostly a collection of recipes. Here and there are scattered a few food related quotes which breaks up the monotony of reading a recipe book. I found the appendix on herbs and what they're used for interesting.

Someone mentioned that this might be a good book for beginners. I mildly disagree. The book assumes you know your way around a kitchen. For instance:

"Poach and simmer slowly until barely cooked." I know I should know, but what is "poached"?

"You may need beans or pie weights for cooking certain pies." Okay, what are pie weights and how do you use them?

"Roll out the dough, cut into tart shells and line ungreased muffin tins." "tart shells"? Sounds interesting. How do you do them?

I realize the above is a complaint about my own ignorance in the kitchen ... but I hope it highlights that the book really isn't for complete beginners.

The TOC includes:

-- Spinach Salad
-- Anton's Beets in Oranges
-- Stuffing
-- Tourtiere
-- Fish Pie
-- Two pie crusts
-- Cherry Pie
-- Apple Pie
-- Quiche Lorraine
-- Butter Tarts
-- Pumpkin Pie
-- Greek Shortbread
-- Double Peanut Butter Roll-ups
-- Meringue Topping
-- Butterscotch Pie
-- Curried Shrimp
-- Baked Pineapple Rice
-- Three Cheese Rice
-- Mulligatawny Stew
-- Stew and Dumplings
-- Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding
-- Appendix: Herbs
-- Appendix: Spices
-- Appendix: Herb and Spices #2
-- Appendix: Frozen Chicken/Turkey

From a formatting perspective, one thing that I think would improve the book would be to have a page break before each recipe.

we did not read it. Just looked at a few pages and had no interest in it's content. Recipes were not what we wanted so we deleted the book after seeing for the first time. Others may feel they need more cook books, and they might keep it.

Why a cookbook from Ted? Because his food is good! OK, None of these recipes are going to make the top ten list of healthy recipes. If I wanted a healthy recipe book, I would get one that said "Healthy Recipes."

Ted owned a Bistro in Canada, so his recipes include some wonderful British favorites, including Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding.

While heavy on deserts, his, he has some hearty staples as well. Besides the Roast Beef (actually a Rib Roast), two that are "don't miss" recipes are his stew and dumplings and three cheese rice. The instructions on making the recipes is clear and make each of them easy to make.

I really count on the Table of Contents in Kindle Books, and Ted has done a super job of both titles and a Table of Contents. But he has gone one step further, and won my heart. At the end of each recipe he has a quick link back to the table of contents. So if you are scanning for a good recipe, you can find your way around the book quickly and easily.

Good food + good instructions + good navigation. Five stars.

Eating is one the most important events in everyone's life. We enjoy eating - it's part of who we are and part of our culture; in fact, eating is the hottest universal topic of all times. We depend on eating: the foods we eat are the sole source of our energy and nutrition. We know so much about eating: we are born with the desire to eat and grown up with rich traditions of eating.Good book for us who loves food

I expected a decent cookbook on proper recipes but this book was more better toward herbs and spices, and pies. it's a good free read I guess.
