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!!

The Best of Jane Grigson by Jane Grigson
My rating: 4 of 5 spoons
gggg
Jane Grigson is well known for her classic cookbooks on British and European cookery, and now you can get a lovely collection of her most well-known recipes from around the world in one book. The book is divided into the following sections:
• At Home in England
• At Home in France
• Charcuterie
• The Mediterranean
• The Europeans
• The Americas
• India and the Far East
• Treats and Celebrations
Each section is then subdivided into various sub-sections. Some chapters have more subdivisions than others, but all are well done. The index is thorough, making it easy to find a recipe either by title or by main ingredient.
There is such a lovely variety of dishes from a classic Shepherd’s Pie (a favorite of mine) or Yorkshire Pudding (equally well loved in this family!) to Boeuf a la Bourguignonnne, Spanakopitta, Paella, Scandinavian Pickled Salmon, Chilli Con Carne, Stir-Fried Chicken with Mushrooms, and so much more. You’re sure to find not just something to cook, but a whole array of tempting dishes to make at home.
I received a copy of this book from Grub Street Publishing for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
