The Pioneer Woman Cooks--Dinnertime: Comfort Classics, Freezer Food, 16-Minute Meals, and Other Delicious Ways to Solve Supper!

El libro está muy mal enmaquetado, por lo que lo devuelvo. Las recetas son muy calóricas, típicas americanas, aunque supongo que para alguna fiesta seguro que pueden ir muy bien.

Cover: Grundfarbe rot, mit Blümchen, dem Pioneer Woman Schriftzug, und einem hübschen Foto, von Ree Drummond und ihren vier Kindern. Sehr schöne Optik. Inhalt: Leckere Dinner Rezepte für jeden Geschmack. Von Breaifast for Dinner, über Suppen, Fleisch, Ranchküche, Beilagen, bis hin zu Desserts. Alle Rezepte sind mit Schritt für Schritt - Anleitung, und tollen Fotos, die von Ree Drummond selbst gemacht wurden.Dazu bekommt man jede Menge Küchen Tipps und Tricks von der Pioneer Woman. Das Ganze wird mit Familien - Schnappschüssen, Fotos von den Tieren und der Ranch, und interessanten Hintergrundinfos und Anekdoten über Rees Familie, und das Ranch - Leben abgerundet. Fazit: Ein rundum tolles Kochbuch, und ein Muß für jeden Pioneer Woman Fan.

Beautiful photos, which is a must for my cooking books. I cannot cook unless I have a visual of the end result. This book has plenty of images, including of the preparation steps, and not only of the recipes (not that I need to know what this woman's family or farm look like... but, since she wants to share, that's ok too). Most important, the recipes are very clearly explained and are extremely doable. Nothing fancy. It's a recipe book for "family cooking": I am vegetarian so I have access only to some and not all of the recipes: everything I tried so far came out perfect, no need to make my own "edits" or adjustments, it all worked out very well. I also love that the author (who, my husband just told me, is very famous... I never heard of her, sorry) provides little practical asides with alternatives in case one is missing an ingredient and doesn't feel like riding to the supermarket. I am not American: therefore I love that the author is giving me a chance to learn some "real Americana" stuff, which I usually get to taste only in restaurants and diners. EASY TO USE, EASY TO UNDERSTAND, BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED, GREAT PRINT QUALITY, REASONABLY PRICED, INTERESTING RECIPES EXPLAINED INTELLIGENTLY ENOUGH TO BE REPRODUCED WITHOUT PROBLEMS. p.s.: Like ALL recipe books published in America, however, this one too has poorly thought-out indexes. But that's the fault of editors and publishing houses.

Todos sus libros son muy buenos y claros. hemos probado varias recetas de este y nos gusta mucho! es fácil de seguir y resultan a prueba de todo las recetas

The book itself is colourful, not only the recipes. Full of wonderful photos by Ree Drummond with funny captions. Each recipe is introduced by the writer. When I first got it, I only read these, it is like reading a book, Ree is clever and funny (check out her blog or watch on Food Network). The recipes are undeniably American (tex-mex mainly) in taste and sized for a big family and calorific (they are a very active family) but the ingredients are common enough to be easily obtained in the UK and I can always choose to substitute the ingredients for lighter versions. The mesurements are given consistently in cups and spoons, however, there is a conversion table at the end of the book. Unlike some other cookery books, this one has got photos and descriptions of every step of every recipe which makes them really easy to follow. Also, with every recipe, Ree offers tips for making ahead and for variations. I genuinly believe that ideas in chapters like Freezer Food, 16-Minute Meals or Pasta Pronto might make the life of really busy families easier.
