Title: I should have known better
Review: I like Ina, don't get me wrong. I am quite disappointed in this book, however. Perhaps it is because I am a pretty good cook with a background of working the front of restaurants. I found this too, too simple. Four of the vegetable recipes are: toss the vegetable in olive oil, salt and pepper and roast on a cookie sheet. The cheese section actually says to go to a good cheese store and buy the best and then arrange it attractively.I needed to be told that?I should have know better. Her show is mostly a "lifestyle magazine" of sorts,Ina buying beautiful produce from her friends in their boutique (expensive) stores. and sharing these treats with a friend and a glass of wine.I guess, I want her life, more than her book.
Is the review positive or negative?
