Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I ordered the annual after receiving the magazines. This annual is fantastic in many ways:
1) The articles are written so that you can prepare as you go along, with multiple ways to know you have the correct amounts: for example it will say 2 cups or 5 ears of corn
2) They tell you exactly HOW to cut things (for those of us who don't know what julienne means)
3) It gives precise times (ex: cook the pasta for 2 minutes)
4) My husband now thinks I'm a pro b/c the recipes taste so good!
5) I have learned to use different types of spices like Asian 5 spice or French Spice
6) The recipes focus on making things easy, but not too easy to be bad for you (it's all fresh). (for those of us who grew up with mom making fresh)
7) I made their thanksgiving meal and it was better than any thanksgiving I've had anywhere (brined turkey with beautiful aromatics)
8) THe fine cooking series is upscale, but not too fancy as to be too hard to make or inaccessible ingredients for those living in major cities.
DOWNSIDES:
The only thing I can think of is that some ingredients utilized may not be available to those living in the countryside. My in-laws live in a remote area and I don't send her the recipes simply b/c I am not sure she has access to those ingredients.
