Summary: Great Bargain
Comment: This is an excellent book on Dominican cooking, unfortunately if you don't speak spanish the english version it too expensive. Take a few spanish lessons and get this book if you like authentic latin american cuisine.

Summary: INCREIBLE y DELICIOSO
Comment: I was born in the Dominican Republic and moved to the States when I was 10 years old. I treasured going back on my summer vacations and eating the incredible food of the D.R.
I am now 27, and have desperately tried for years to find the traditional recepies of REAL DOMINICAN COOKING, but have always come to a halt, until I came accross this AMAZING COOKBOOK.
The recipes are so easy to follow and the results are incredible. I would personlly like to thank the author for providing the " DOMINICANOS AUSENTES" the ability to feel a little closer to home with these wonderful recipes.
"Gracias por crear estas recetas tan deliciosas, y darnos a todos un poquito de ese calor dominicano dentro de nueatras comidas !!!!!!!!"

Summary: Excellent Book!!, Highly Recommend
Comment: I own the English version of this book, and just received the Spanish version of this cookbook as a gift. I congratulate the author for the in-depth look at Dominican foods and its origins. Yes, this book is a cookbook and a cultural book! Dominicans will really apprciate this point. The book has a glossary of Dominican terms and foods and it also provides me with menus on what foods to combine. I always amaze my friends with the great recipies within this book. It is simple to read and I really enjoy having my home cooking wherever I go. I highly recommend this book!!

Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: I agree with the other reviewer that it was not user friendly. I made two of the recipes and they both came out horrible. I consider this book more a "cultural snapshot" than an actual cookbook.

Summary: Bread Pudding
Comment: I have gone to DR numerous times and I love the food so very much. Since I can't always be there to satisfy my cravings, I decided to bring the food home to us! Husband hasn't eaten dominican bread pudding in years. I made the bread pudding for him and he loved it and complimented me like I have never seen before! Lucky me I can read spanish...may not be 100% acurate (my spanish that is) but the results was just superb after making the bread pudding! I am soooo happy to have this book. Now I can really enjoy some good food. Lot of the recipes are so familiar when my mother n law cooked for us. Now I can make them and enjoy them with my family!
