A Love Affair with Southern Cooking: Recipes and Recollections Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a fan of Jean Anderson's cookbooks to begin with (she's written more than 20!), but I am particularly enjoying "A Love Affair with Southern Cooking" because I recently moved to the South. This book not only gives me some great southern recipes, it gives me history and personal stories about growing up in the South.
Already I've tried three recipes. The Lemon Chess Pie is a snap to make (the whole filling gets whizzed up in the food processor) and has the tart yet sweet smoothness of great lemon curd. The Moravian gingerbread is like no other gingerbread I've ever eaten. Really scrumptious--uses chopped fresh ginger. I also made the Peppered Pecans--quick, easy and wonderful with a glass of wine.
I guess this is what you'd call a rave review. Well, why not? One of the things I treasure about Jean Anderson's cookbooks is that the recipes always work. Even for me! She gives full instructions so you never get left hanging, wondering if she meant this or that. You know what she means. If all cookbooks were written as clearly as hers maybe I'd be a better cook.
