Five Book Friday: In Memoriam
(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Naked Chef
by
Jamie Oliver
GWA
, January 27, 2010
Chef Jamie Oliver really does his best to peel away any fear you have about cooking. Laid back cooking. And, he is the master of the "comfort food" genre, hands' down (or, up). His fish casserole is stupendous! I love the way he has you use pots and pans to their fullest (i.e., hard boiling eggs in with your boiling potatoes), which makes his style of cooking easy. He's honest with quantities, and it's great when he says, "just toss in a hand full", or a "pinch of this": those descriptions work great. I haven't had anything turn out bad.

Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone
by

I consider this vegetarian cookbook an encyclopedia - full of what you need to know with the support of great recipes and techniques. I have this vegetarian cookbook and one other and that is all a chef-on-a-budget really needs. The professional veggie cookbook to grab and keep.

New Moosewood Cookbook
by

As I began to change my diet to battle high cholesterol, I began cooking more vegetarian dishes. This is packed full of great recipes which you can further tailor depending on your veggies-on-hand. The gratin recipe is an example.........you can do a million things with it. This book really helped convince my tastebuds that eating more vegetables is a good thing in more ways than one.

Paul Prudhommes Seasoned America
by
Paul Prudhomme
GWA
, January 27, 2010
Paul Prudhomme is very clever in having the cook make up a large quantity of the required dish's spices/herbs (say a third to a half cup), and then he uses it during different stages of the recipe........thereby creating a deep layer of full flavor to unravel as you eat the dish. Very clever and fantastic way to cook. This cookbook is particularly creative as he travels around the US and picks out recipes which he then converts into his style of cooking. Full of flavor - making everything better than the original recipe. You do not have to live in Louisiana and have access to that area's food to be successful, although perhaps their local sausage is better than what I can purchase in New Hampshire! Once in awhile I have used just about every pan and pot in my kitchen in order to tackle his recipes...........but once people taste the outcome, I have plenty of folk volunteering to put my kitchen back in place - as a way to encourage me to put on another Paul Prudhomme dinner.
