Customer Rating: Summary: Poor layout diminishes cookbook Comment: I have found that this cookbook drives me nuts. Many of the recipes call for sauces or spices or marinades that are included in the end of the book. This means I need to flip pages. On top of that, some of the condiments/sauces require additional construction.
Here is an example:
On page 143, Adaso Jugoso, sounds good. Seems simple. But I have to go to page 209 for instructions on Adobo para Asado. On page 209, Adobo para Asado calls for three additional ingredients from other pages: Mostza (page 208), Pasta de Albahaca (page 204-205), Vinagre Aromatico (page 202).
My problem is that since I do not stock all these items, I have to first construct them (timing unknown) and then construct the main recipe.
I would have preferred the recipes to involve less flipping back and forth through the book. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Comment: I've been searching for a long time for a book that recaps all of the recipes that I grew up on and never thought to write them all down. It's like being at my grandmother's house all over again. Customer Rating: Summary: AT LONG LAST!
