Thank you for visiting my blog! I have a lifelong love of cooking and cookbooks which I wanted to share with others. My favorite cuisine would have to be Italian with an emphasis on Sicilian influenced by my visits there, but I enjoy food from all over. I am not a chef, I am just a stay-at-home mom with a love for food and cooking. I'm sharing that love with my daughters as I train them in the kitchen, and wanted to share it with you as well. Let's get cooking!!

I'm sitting here munching on Salmon Fishballs as I write this review. Oh, my! These are amazing! I do recommend mincing the onions and celery instead of just chopping them as they're still a bit too crunchy/raw, but the flavors are wonderful! I'll definitely be making these again! Other than my 5-year-old, everyone else in the house loved them.
The book starts off with techniques, which is really nice, before it moves on to the recipes. There are not a huge amount of recipes in this book--only around forty-five recipes total--including six sauce recipes, five sides and one dessert (truffles). Eight are for tartares, so I will not be using those (I'm sorry, but I just don't eat raw meat!), but there are some fascinating recipes included. From Herby Veal Meatballs to Fish Burgers to Cottage Pie, there is a nice variety of flavors. I can't wait to try the Chicken Meatballs with Sesame and the Italian Veal Burgers. I do recommend this cookbook. While it may not be a thick cookbook with tons of recipes, the recipes are interesting and the book is good quality with gorgeous color photos.
I received a copy of this book from Quartos Books for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
