Detailed item info

Synopsis
Get past the images conjured up by the title and you will find a book that is as charming, thoughtful, and quirky as its author, the Pulitzer Prize- winning film critic. A combination essay and cookbook, THE POT AND HOW TO USE IT focuses on the electric rice cooker as an underrated element of meal preparation. Of course you can cook more than rice in it! You can cook anything: soups, sauces, potatoes! And by "you," Ebert means "anyone": dorm students, night watchmen, participants in the witness protection program! Ebert includes recipes and comments from readers of his blog, where he first began his musings on the pot and its meaning. The writing sparkles, and the observations are astute, very funny, and definitely practical.

The recipe consultant is Yvonne Nienstadt, chief nutritionist at Rancho la Puerta, (Baja, California, Mexico).
