  • Great recipes

    Ina Garten's cookbooks are amongst my favorites. I bought this as a gift for my brother who asked for it. We do the "accidental turkey" every year for Thanksgiving. There are many other great recipes, "thyme roasted marcona almonds", "mustard and gruyere batons". If you've never used one of her cookbooks, all you need to do is follow directions and you'll have the best tasting food ever. I now make adjustments to salt and butter quantities, but her recipes really are no fail for any home cook.

  • Foolproof Thanksgiving!

    Thanksgiving recipes!! Accidental Turkey, pumpkin pie and pie dough, whipped cream, mushroom leek stuffing, Parmesan crisps to throw in your appetizer plate….everything is pretty straightforward, paired down, delicious recipes you’d expect from something called Foolproof, plus great weeknight / weekend dinners without any confusing “hidden time.” I have looked for a more savory meatloaf recipe before and never found one I wanted to keep making. Meatloaf is one of those things I didn’t grow up eating, and only saw smothered in sugary ketchup, but, as a busy mom, I can now appreciate the idea in earnest The 1775 house’s was slam dunk easy and paired with a salty sweet garlicky sauce (not ketchup) that was perfect for testing a mashed potatoes recipe prior to thanksgiving. That sauce takes a while, but, freezes nicely and the two together make a great winter meal prep with some veggies for those longer work days. Am I making lobster rolls? No, but, that’s because I don’t live in an area with cheap fresh lobster. Everything thing else is absolutely on the menu and, well, Foolproof.

  • Lovely photos of the recipes...

    The quality is noteworthy, it's practically new! Seriously, this is a cookbook and certainly not "compelling"! My complaint is that she uses some odd ingredients I never heard of!
